The film will become a big hit even before it hits the screen. However, there are some points that you have to keep in mind and think about that. With so much of videos present online on YouTube, how would you make your video content get noticed uniquely among the others? You do not have any facility in YouTube to make your content exclusive and unique, but still you can do something to drive more traffic towards your video. This article is going to help you on that i.e. how to make use of YouTube for promoting your business. Below are mentioned top 10 ways by which you can use Youtube in your marketing campaign.
1. Come up with your own channel on YouTube
Creating an own channel for your business is the first and basic thing that you have to do after entering into the YouTube and before posting your videos on the website. Generally, a channel will be automatically created when you sign up with YouTube. The thing is you have to maintain it properly. Within the channel, you can create your own profile, organize contents and create playlists.
2. Choose perfect account type suitable to your Marketing Campaign
You will be given an option during the sign up process of YouTube to select an account type for your YouTube account. Different account types will be there and the basic type is standard. Each type has its specific role on the website. For example, ‘a director account’ lets you produce your own web videos and allows adding custom logo to your profile. Similarly, each account type has its unique feature and you should select the one based on your business needs.
3. Create short videos
The best way to make your users to watch your video is to make it short and sweet. The running time of video should be 5 minutes or less than that. If you have long videos to play, then break them into different segments and attach them in the playlist.
4. Tag videos properly
After creating your video or uploading from any sources, just make sure that you have organized your video under perfect category and tagged it. You can always check with other videos about how they are tagged and categorized, which will finally pay off. It may not be possible to fit your content exactly under one category, but still a related category will work when doing a similar search through keywords option.
5. Create playlists
You might be adding your own videos to the list or include videos from some other sources, whatever it is do create a playlist for all the videos that you include in your channel. It makes the user experience great and easy in searching for your channel videos and they will sure express their gratitude for it.
6. Use YouTube promotion facilities
You do not have to wait to see who has visited your profile and watched your videos. YouTubeoffers you some self-promotion facilities. Make use of that to promote your videos. Such a facility is sending emails to the users. Similarly, you can create bulletins from your profile or from other people’s channels. Bulletins are nothing but short messages to the users.
7. Create video responses for other user’s videos
It is so simple to create video responses. Instead of commenting on a video of other users, you can create video responses right below the main video player. You can even record your video using your webcam or upload from your previous videos. However, make sure that your response is related to the content of the main video.
8. Join Groups
YouTube has a great community groups online. You can search in YouTube for different groups and you can join a category that is related to your marketing campaign. You will get more audience in a group. People joining your group will view your content and it directly increases your traffic.
9. Make use of YouTube streams
You can contact the YouTube team directly through the streams. You can share your videos online and discuss about your videos in real time through YouTube streams. This gives you an option to chat with the users in real time about your videos and know their feedbacks on your work.
10. Active sharing
It is a latest feature that lets you drive more traffic to your content. This feature will make your name visible on the side of the video that you are watching. If another user who is watching the same video gets curious about your detail, then he will visit your profile page to see your videos. This is another way of attracting users and drying traffic to your content.
5 Reasons Why Your Youtube Video Sucks and Only Has 10 Views in 1 year
Here's a perfect example of a YouTube video that should be doing well but right now I would call this one a fail.
[I know that I promised to give you the rest of the Secret Sauce for creating Youtube transcripts but I need to show you WHY it's so important to optimize your videos before I reveal my recipe. Don't worry I promise you that it will be worth the wait.]
On May 5 2012, I uploaded this video 'How To Install a Font on Your PC'
I know there have got to be millions of people out there looking for a how to video for installing a font to their computer.
No - I didn't do any keyword research (maybe that's part of the problem) but to be perfectly honest I NEVER do keyword research before I upload a video. From time to time I might do some after the fact but in this case I know people are searching for this for one simple reason
-I was.
And since I consider myself slightly more tech savvy than the typical person searching for something on Google or YouTube, I can rest assured that others are looking for this solution as well. However - here's what I did wrong and why this video is considered a fail in my book.
- BORING TITLE
- NO TAGS (well there is one tag but what the heck was I thinking....)
- NO CAPTIONS/TRANSCRIPT
- NO CUSTOM THUMBNAIL
- NO SOCIAL SHARES
My plan going forward is to address each one of these issues and increase the view count on this video asap.
