You can use it to: ā¢ show off your expertise ā¢ share knowledge ā¢ market your products and ā¢ connect with customers, colleagues and prospects. It's easy to publish a video on YouTube, just sign up and you're ready to go.
- 5. Stats People are consuming video and lots of it. Here are a few stats to give you an idea on just how effective your video marketing may be: ā¢Over 800 million unique users visit YouTube each month ā¢Over 3 billion hours of video are watched each month on YouTube ā¢72 hours of video are uploaded to YouTube every minute ā¢70% of YouTube traffic comes from outside the US ā¢YouTube is localized in 43 countries and across 60 languages ā¢In 2011, YouTube had more than 1 trillion views or around 140 views for every person on Earth The likelihood that your target audience is on watching is very high. The reasons for getting your content on YouTube seem quite obvious.
- 6. Business Goals The types of video content are only bound by the creative nature of your marketing team- everything from instructional videos, product presentations, commercials, skits, real estate walk-throughs and much more. But, your business goals boil down to two things: ā¢ Build brand awareness through the use of video ā¢ Use YouTube's embedding script to easily add videos to your own website
- 7. Embedding YouTube Videos Now, embedding a video onto a web page becomes as easy as cutting and pasting. How much does it cost you to add a video from YouTube to your site? Nada--nothing. They provide the service, and they also provide the bandwidth, so the video is hosted on their servers and uses their bandwidth. Hard to beat a deal like that! When you click the Share button, the HTML code used to embed a link that video is displayed directly below it, however that's not what we are after--we want to directly embed the video into the page. We do that by clicking the Embed button which is displayed directly below the Link URL. Once you click the Embed button, you will see the HTML code for embedding the video, as shown. Then you want to copy this code and paste it into the source code of you web page and save. Voila- easy peasy!
- 8. How to use YouTube Commenting on Videos can be an interesting strategy. This is most valuable when commenting on videos in your industry that have tens of thousands of views, or more. With this volume of views, commenting will add to the conversation and can be just as valuable as engaging in a blogs comments. You don't have to produce your own videos for you to create a list of your favorite videos to share with others on YouTube. Creating a favorite is an easy way to bookmark specific videos for later and also shows engagement in the YouTube community. Plus, if it's already been created, why recreate the wheel and do it yourself?
- 9. How to use YouTube YouTube has an interesting feature where you can share a video on multiple social sites directly from the video page. Share your videos on your website, blog, tweets and Facebook page. Videos are effective on Facebook landing pages welcoming people to your brand. Tweet the link of your newest video to your Twitter audience. Video blogs are becoming more and more popular. The possibilities are endless. Also underneath videos is an option to create a playlist. If you produce multiple videos in a series, creating a playlist is a great way to tie them together. Similar to buying television time, you can "Promote" your video from the "My Videos" section under each video. This works like pay-per-click (PPC) advertising and allows you to buy traffic to your videos based on keywords that you choose to target. With the right kind of material this can be much cheaper than television advertising.
- 10. YouTube Facelift If youāre a YouTube user youāve probably noticed the new layout & design of YouTube lately. You might be surprised to see how things have really changed with the look and style of the new layout.

You call it your Video News Feeds where you will get updated with everything. In the Post To Feed box, this is where you will post any latest videos you have uploaded to YouTube. But YouTube also automatically notifies your Feed section for every new content posted. The Videos ā this is where you see all your uploaded videos with thumbnails.
- 12. Uploaded Videos 4. At the Videos Section, you can see all your upload videos and you can also view your playlists (if you have created one). If you have none yet, then you may create a playlist or upload video or record a video from your webcam, remix creative commons videos or create an animation or slideshow. You can sort it either from Most Popular or Date Added (newest to oldest OR oldest to newest). Feel free to explore these great options from YouTube.

- 18. Interacting With Your Channel There are so many neglected YouTube channels, even from social media companies that youād think would realize the value in an up-to-date video resource for their company. While weāre by no means advocating needlessly creating video content, if youāre looking to go down the YouTube route then donāt let your resolve or enthusiasm for the service dwindle a couple of months in. Even if you have no new content to post, still keep logging in to stay on top of comments, friend requests, add favorites, etc, so as not to relegate your channel to the ranks of the unloved.
