How to Get Found Online with Videos

Confused about video?
Good news, you aren't the only one.

Why Video is Important

Videos help you rank higher in Search Engine Results Pages (SERPs) on Google and YouTube (the second largest search engine in the world behind Google-the parent company). YouTube has over 2 billion videos watched per day with tons more uploaded daily!

Not only do you show up better in the search results page, more and more people are viewing video content from computers, mobile devices and television. Your business has a much better chance of getting found if it has a video on YouTube as well as other web site, i.e. Vimeo, your website.

Make Video a Priority
It will increase business and build a competitive advantage. It's easier than you think. Do it yourself with a camcorder or hire professionals like VMakers.

How to Get Started
- Research. Search for videos and related products and/or services online. Look for ideas and trends.
- Get creative and generate ideas for content.
- Establish the format and length. Make sure your video isn't too long. Most videos lose viewers after 10 seconds.
- Create a channel on YouTube and Vimeo - they're easy and free. Upload your videos (instructions are provided online) to YouTube, Vimeo and your website.
- When uploading videos optimize the title, description and tags. Use targeted and relevant keywords, similar to meta data of a website. Don't keyword stuff.
- Use analytics to track your videos.
