7 Video Marketing Tricks and Tactics That I
Borrowed
from Kelvin Brown
Copyright 2007, Joanne
Mason
Anyone in the Internet
Marketing community who is familiar
with Kelvin Brown probably also knows that he is a
well
respected mentor on the topic of video marketing.
In a recent interview,
Kelvin shared some of the video
marketing tricks and tactics that he has been using to
get
lots of traffic to his multiple websites for more than a
year now. After
talking to Kelvin for over one full
hour,
here are just seven of
the proven video marketing
techniques that I borrowed
from him to attract more online
traffic.
1. You can use an
inexpensive video camera or webcam to
create short instructional videos and uploading them
to
free video hosting sites like Google Video and You Tube
and tap into millions of visitors to those sites each day.
2. Use a good description
of your video that makes it easy
for people to find your videos and easy for the
search
engines to index.
3. A great way to get the
attention of a local audience is
by creating videos of local events. Annual
events are even
better because people will find your site year after
year
using the same videos.
4. A good way to get more
traffic from your best articles
is to create video illustrating the main points in
your
article.
5. You can create videos
without a web camera by using
Windows XP Movie Maker. The program is very easy to use
and includes step by step instructions. The software come
preinstalled on Windows
XP computers or can be loaded from
the Windows website.
6. You can create a video
using any audio file that you own
the rights to or created yourself. Add moving or
still
pictures and add the audio to the background.
7. Rather than hosting
your own videos on your website with
a Google trademark attached you may want to
consider using
a service like Audio Acrobat. The reasoning is
because
when people see the Google tag on a video they naturally
go to Google to watch more videos. If you use a service
like Audio Acrobat
you won t have to include a trademark
tag to imbed the video on
your website. Additionally, the
video is being hosting on
Audio Acrobat rather than your
own site so you won't use
your own bandwidth.
These are just a few of
the video marketing tips that I've
learned from Kelvin Brown
about one of the hottest Internet
marketing tactics online today.
