Anybody who uses Youtube regularly for traffic will tell you that there’s nothing like the kind of visitor it provides. Having a Youtube channel is like having another website, working away for you twenty four hours a day gaining loyal followers for your content. When a Youtube visitor finds your video, and enjoy what they find, they will more than likely have a look at your Youtube channel to see if there are any related videos. At this point, if you have done a good job on creating plenty of great content, then they will subscribe to your channel. You now have had the same sort of reaction that your blog would get, the only difference being that they have subscribed to a channel rather than signed up for your newsletter, or bulletin system. You can contact these users whenever you want, and let them know about your other online presences, such as your blog or Twitter profile. If they are enjoying your content, they will go right ahead and sign up/follow.
Amazingly, many people forget to optimize their Youtube videos, and miss out on some great link juice that this provides. By adding your keywords to your title and description, and including a link to your website, you have the opportunity to increase traffic seriously. An important thing to remember, besides optimizing, is to ensure your Youtube videos are branded with your color schemes and logos. You can watermark the video, or simply have a short intro to the content. People buy into branding very quickly, and it can be a vital part of marketing. To ensure you are getting plenty of video views, you need to get your link out there and marketed, just as you would your website. Bookmark and share your video link on as many different social sites as possible, and always remember to include your keywords in your descriptions etc.
