Video SEO is a science really and this video shows you what I do to get over 1000 views a day on my videos, and multiple leads for multiple products whenever I create one.
Youtube SEO Best Practices are as follows:
- Do a Search for Keyword that People Actually Search for in the Search Window related to your description.
- Write a Good Description up to 65 Characters in your Youtube Title WITH those keywords placed in it with a catchy headline
- Place a Link Below the Video to Direct them to your information/capture page
- Embed the Video on Your Blog and as Many sites as you own.
- Get as many links pointing back to that video from Social Media sites or the embedded video on your sites. Write comments on high ranking blogs and include the link back to your Youtube video.
- Write a lonnnng description with keyword variables throughout the Youtube description. Think of this as a blog rough draft and just bang it out. Take the content to your blog and edit it with pictures, headlines, bullet points, and even more text added to the blog. (You have up to 5000 characters to use in the description)
- ALWAYS place a link to your site in the first section of the description in the video! Send them there to get more information!
- Use annotations on your video so A. People don't copy your video B. It adds SEO juice to the video C. You can place links for other videos and add the Subscription link to add more subscribers
- Always share it on your Google Plus page first with a nice description as well as other Social Media sites. Google loves to rank videos on Google Plus
- Send to Your List and/or Friends Network and ASK them for comments and/or Likes to your video. Social engagement helps tell Youtube that your video is relevant and valuable for their intended audience.
So that is my basic Video SEO strategy I use to get my videos ranked well within Youtube and I know it will help you as well. Please share this article with other people you think it will help and give me a "Like and Comment" as well! :)
Best of luck and choose to make it a great day!
