I have been doing video marketing now for sometime and wanted to share a few tips with you all.

5 Reasons to Use Video Marketing

1.Video Sites Get a Lot of Searches - Don`t underestimate the search function in Youtube. For the longest time it had more searches than Google... This of course depends on your niche.

2.Rank Well - With proper optimization of the video you will rank well in the search engines.

3.Get Noticed - Video will stick out in the search engines

4.Connect With Your Audience - You can connect with your viewers in a different way then when you write. Weather you are in front of the camera or if you do a screen-cast you can use your voice to connect, to grab attention of your viewers.

5.Traffic – using video marketing can get you a lot of traffic to your website.
