Many online marketers have been using videos for years to
promote and sell their products. Mainly because the use of
video as a marketing tool is cost-effective and a very simple
way to market. It is one marketing trend no online marketer
can ignore. It is already playing a major role in online
marketing and will play an even greater role in the future.

Just look at how video is being used by Brock Felt and Buck
Rizvi to roll out their PipeLine Profits venture. These
relatively unknown marketers are using video from the recent
StomperNet event to introduce and gather buzz for their
PipeLine (Co-Registration) Profits.
You should also note how effectively blogs and podcasts
are being used in this marketing product roll-out.

More and more well known Internet marketers are using
videos to create buzz, to promote and sell their products.
From John Reese promotional video, standing at the Great Wall
of China announcing his upcoming ‘online training courses’
to Joel Comm plugging his latest Adsense
Templates package on Google Video to Michael Cheney’s
tongue-in-cheek CMN Cheney’s Marketing News.
Note how Cheney is offering these videos for placement on
any site around the web, building links and brand recognition
in the process.

Online marketers are exploiting the immediate connection
and effectiveness of using video in their marketing.
Videos are used to inform potential customers on different
products, services or promotions offered by the marketer.
These seasoned marketers know building a solid relationship
with your clients is a main key to boosting your sales.
The use of video is an effective, and simple way to make
this connection.

Most marketers also use blogs to update and connect with
potential clients. Blogs and RSS feeds are perhaps
the more important marketing tools which actually give
videos their unlimited potential. The real power behind the
throne. With the advent of the next RSS empowered Windows
(Vista), one would expect Blogs and RSS to play an even
greater role in the Internet marketing arena. Video has
truly arrived in the online marketing world.

Basically, what we will see is every website on the net
becoming its own broadcasting system. Its own television
channel catering to a specific niche or a broad topic
depending on the subject matter covered by the site.
A billion channel Internet powered by RSS and video.
One only has to look at how a prominent site like
WebProNews.com is using videos to see how this scenario
will play out.

But what is truly revolutionary, you don’t have to be a major
player to get in this marketing game, even the smallest
marketer can use and benefit from implementing their own
videos. A simple video or digital camera can produce an
informational video within minutes. These can range from
the so-called ‘poor man’ Camtasia videos, to elaborate
infomercials and commercials. You can then upload these
videos to your blog or site and distribute them around
the web within seconds. Those concerned with bandwidth costs
can always upload their videos to YouTube or Google Video.
This simple video marketing system is available to everyone.

Current savvy online marketers are using these videos
as effective marketing tools. No reason why you can’t
follow their lead and use videos to:

1. Introduce yourself or your product

2. Create buzz during a product launch

3. Build your list by offering free videos

4. Create video content to enrich your site

5. Build a more personal relationship with subscribers

6. Keep in contact with your clients

7. Create a video sales letter/pitch to sell your product or service

Nothing beats the personal and direct connection video
or TV makes with your potential customers and follow-up
leads. It’s the infomercial personalized for the web. Soon
marketers will be using video software that automatically
inserts their subscriber’s name in their videos for a more
personal touch. Similar to what we see done now with
AutoResponders with the field {first_name) personalizing
all correspondence with our subscribers. Expect this
personalized video marketing to be a big trend in the
coming years.

Your own name is still the sweetest word on the planet.
Most savvy marketers will take advantage of this
fact by personalizing their messages and building
a genuine relationship with their clients. Personalized
videos will help cement this relationship and make
it stronger — all contributing to more sales for
the marketer, of course!

From a marketing viewpoint: videos, podcasts, broadcatching,
webcasting and video casting are all phrases for the same
thing: they are all ways to get your message in front
of your customers. Obviously video will help you reach
more customers. Video will make it easier for you to
promote your products or services.

Perhaps, more importantly, videos will make it easier
for you to sell your products and services. It is
one more tool every online marketer should have in
their marketing arsenal. Video is already the future
of online marketing, you should be taking full advantage
of it right now.

There are a lot of ways through which you can market your products and your services. Among these methods, the most cost-effective means is perhaps the internet. Through the internet, you can come up with every marketing campaign possible. The internet is so flexible and vast that with the right moves, it can help your business become more popular and more prominent. That being said, let me introduce you to the latest trend and possibly the most effective of all online marketing strategies: video marketing.

— Video Marketing —

Video marketing just might be the hottest trend to date in the marketing field. The time for telling through text marketing copy has passed. Instead, it’s now time for showing and demonstrating through video clips.

If you’re not that familiar with video marketing, there’s absolutely no need for you to worry. The internet provides a lot of resources on how you can make your videos. You can learn about the tools that you need to make videos and the techniques that can make your videos work for marketing purposes. The following are some tips on how you can make video marketing work for your business.

1. Determine where to post your videos.

First of all, you have to know where you are going to post your video marketing material. There are many choices available to you. You can place your video in your website for more interesting site content. You can also post video clips in online communities and blogs. Of course, you should not neglect to post videos in video blogging sites like YouTube.

2. Determine the video content.

The prior step will help a long way in determining the content of your video marketing materials. As a general rule, your videos must contain information that will build more interest in your business’ products and services. However, the actual and specific content will have to vary, depending on where you’re posting your videos.

For instance, videos in your website can be much more product- or service- oriented. Particularly, your videos can demonstrate how effective your product or service is. Your videos in your site can also be video testimonials from your customers. Moreover, they can be video clips about your special promotions and special updates.

Videos posted in online blogs should be more about updates, news and special promotions. They should merely inform your viewers about the latest news and induce your audience to click on the link to your site for more details.

For video blogging sites like YouTube, your video should be less product-oriented and more entertaining and creative. Your website link can be provided with the video and your products can be featured in them, but your videos must never be a simple sales pitch. You’re never going to be referred and reposted that way.

3. Identify your audience.

All along, you should keep your audience in mind. How old are your intended consumers? Who are they and where do they come from? The content of your video marketing materials will also heavily depend on the demographics of your intended recipients.

After you have done all of the abovementioned steps, all you will need to do is to make your videos and post them online. Of course, you may have to engage the services of a video server for your purposes.

David Bain is an Internet Marketing Consultant who produces internet marketing training videos and advises businesses on how to market themselves more effectively online by harnessing the power of free video websites like YouTube. Some of his own videos include a demonstration of creating effective Inline H Tags which can be viewed for free at http://freeiq.com/headingtags

Think about it. Today we have come to expect to see video used as a selling tool or a means of providing information in a concise and entertaining way. Television commercials and product insertions in Hollywood films and in the newest crop of video games have all conditioned us to product pitches that persuade us to buy or complete an action. Add to the this, the fast paced lives most people live demand fast and convenient information at our fingertips ( or mouse).

This is not a technical article about how to create video, although you will find some good tips in that regard, it is more to convince you that you should not fear the video creation process and why you should start now to use video in your Internet marketing. There is nothing to fear and nothing that good software tools cannot overcome. Making video today is a simple point and click operation.

Get one thing into your head right now: Video does not have to be professional!

I am a retired TV News Editor and I can tell you that the videos being used for marketing on line are far from professional. Most are simply screen captures with some narration. Pretty simple stuff, really. The point is to talk about the product or service and what it might do for the customer. It’s not about you!

That said, let me also say that you can eventually become a video star in your own right. As you get better at video production and presentation, you can start appearing on-camera yourself as you pitch your product or service. At that point you will be “branding” yourself as a professional marketer who knows the product or niche inside and out.

Here are some simple ways you can begin your video marketing campaign:

1) The cheapest way to capture video is free for anyone who runs WindowsXP or higher on their home computer. Windows Movie Maker is built in and offers a variety of ways to capture video right from your computer or after you have downloaded video from the Internet.

2) The next cheapest is to purchase a web cam and a microphone. Some web cams have built in microphones that are of good quality. These are available everywhere for 20 bucks or a little more. You can sit in front of your web cam and record your pitch and even capture screen shots if you are showing your product in action as in a tutorial video.

3) For about 100 bucks you can buy a digital camera that takes still photos and video too. These work well because you can record up to 30 minutes of video with sound as your narrate what you are recording. I use one for family videos and it works quite well.

4) If you have a little money to invest, buy a good camcorder for about 200 bucks. This will up the quality level of your video. By quality I mean resolution or picture quality. The better the pixel quality, the better your final video will be after final editing. This is my choice for video marketing because of the higher quality. Remember, each time you dub a video during editing, the quality will degrade a little so it’s best to have the highest quality video to start with.

These are the main video capture devices you need to consider. Once your raw video is recorded, you download it into Windows Movie Maker or other video editing software, clean it up, and you are ready to upload to your website or to video sharing sites like YouTube. You can even add your website URL to the video so folks can find your website after watching.

It’s important to talk about bandwidth usage. When you host your video on your website you will be eating up bandwidth which could cause your host to charge your more for hosting the videos. However, when you upload to sites like YouTube, Google Video and YahooVideo, you pay no bandwidth costs whatsoever. They host your videos for free. This is the main reason that smart video marketers use such video sharing sites and one you must copy in order to be successful with video marketing.

These sites also offer the opportunity for you to place links to your website, product, or service, in your Profile. People viewing your video can easily click through to your offering. In addition, videos can have a viral effect if they are entertaining or offer something really unique.

One final piece of advice about the content of your video. Make sure the video ties directly into your product, website or service. You can create a wacky video. How about a bungee jumping elephant? That will surely get thousands of viewers but do nothing to sell your product or service if the content of the video has nothing to do with what you are selling unless, of course, you are selling stuffed elephant toys for kids!

Want to know how other newbies are video marketing? Jim DeSantis is an Internet Publisher who provides video production software for newbies at http://www.answersplus.info ==> AnswersPlusInfo. Look for “VideoWebWizard and Free YouTube Bonus” in the sidebar.

Here is a brief overview of how a common video marketing strategy works:

Let’s say you are promoting a website that deals with building model airplane kits. A short video can be produced that shows a few basic steps of how to put together the engine of the plane. The narrator of the video can explain that it is a lot of fun to build model airplanes when you understand what is required to properly build the plane. The narrator could even suggest that it is more fun when you are able to choose from a wide variety of model airplane kits. This then leads into a segue where the video directs the viewer to your site. The site is, of course, a venue for purchasing extremely rare model airplanes. Yes, this is the basics of video marketing and the process is not complicated at all. Really, anyone can do it and it works with any and all subject matter.

The places where you can distribute video marketing materials on the internet are vast. For example, you can design your own blog and then fill the blog with a multitude of video files. This way, people who come across your blog will then be inclined to visit the website that the video files are promoting. A blog is but one example. Other ways that video marketing is promoted is through e-mail campaigns. Sending a video marketing material in emails has another huge benefit. The e-mail that you send can be forwarded to other people from the original recipients. This is commonly referred to as viral marketing and it is a cheap and effective method of spreading a marketing campaign. This, of course, means that the potential number of visitors to your web site will be significant.

And, yes, there is always the possibility of using file sharing networks to promote your video marketing plans. File sharing sites routinely are visited by millions of people. If you create a unique and interesting video marketing file, the number of visitors that may hit on your site could be for beyond what you initially expected. Needless to say, this is a good thing because your traffic stats will go through the roof.

The bottom line is video marketing is a tremendous way to build traffic to a website. So, why not give it a try?

Not all types of videos are effective so you need to be careful to cater your videos to the market your in. The best videos can generate a massive amount of traffic, but they must educate the viewer on what you’re trying to get across to them. Once you’ve created your video, you must know the proper places to distribute the video online. With video marketing popularity is king.

You Tube is by far the leader in video marketing. Before you go about creating videos it’s critical you perform some general market research on your chosen topic. There are thousands of videos in any category on You Tube. Go through You Tube and make notes of the videos that have a very high view count in relation to your chosen topic. It will always be different depending on the market you’re looking into. Once you have a list of article’s with a high view count, note down the common characteristics of these articles and your thoughts on why this is. Then implement these characteristics when creating your own online video.

Here are 5 video marketing tips that will set you apart from you competition:

1. Market Research. This is a critical part to submitting any successful online video. Technorati is a resource you can use to find out what the latest video trends are. Take note of videos that are getting included in multiple blogs and take note of how these videos have been created. Technorati will show you how many links have been created per video by people including the video on their own blogs.

2. Include URL at the start of your description. To ensure you generate the greatest amount of traffic as possible, be sure to include the URL to your website first thing in the description.

3. Include URL in the video itself. It’s best to have your URL show up throughout the entire video. One way to do this on any video background surface is to make the color of your URL show up in white with a black shadow. This will basically ensure your URL shows up no matter what color background is on your video.

4. Main keyword in title and description. It’s important to include your main keyword in the title of your video and at least once in the description, preferably twice if you can.

5. Video Podcasting. The single most powerful method in video marketing is video podcasting. This is simply a series of video files which are distributed over the internet by syndicated downloads through web feeds, portable media players and personal computers. Anyone that is subscribed to your podcast will be notified when you release a new podcast in your series. This is a great way to build an army of online followers.

The majority of people with products on the internet may create videos but they simply do not understand video marketing and how they can properly get a lot of free traffic by effectively marketing their videos. If you use the techniques explained in this article, you’ll already be one step ahead of your competition. Before you create any online video always do a little bit of market research to see what the most popular videos are doing. Take note of the techniques they are using and model off these when creating your own videos. The most important aspect to remember with video marketing is that popularity is king. Online video is certainly the way of the future. This wraps up my article on video marketing.

Did you find this article helpful? If you did, then take a look at the step-by-step video tutorials here! http://www.MakeMoneyAtMaverick.com

So, after your finished video taping your son or daughters soccer game, record yourself offering something of value to people in the world who can use it (ie: your prospects and people you want to attract towards your business).

Why Internet Video Marketing is so easy…

1) When it comes to creating content, it is a lot easier to speak your mind and tell a story (or walk someone through how they can use your product or service better) then it is to write it down. With internet video marketing, marketers know what they want to say and just have to say it. BUT… when you know what you want to say and have to type it out…that’s a lot tougher. Article writers (such as myself) have to think things out, make sure it sounds good, know how to write and walk people through a story. For some people that comes easy, for others, it’s nearly impossible.

2) Videos on a certain topic are more well received than emails on that same topic. People would rather hear or see something of value (or learn something if you’re using screen capture software) than have to read about it. Internet video marketing offers you the chance to literally SHOW them the way.

3) Videos are easy to find and with the crazy popularity of of YouTube, there are tons out there and they’re so easy to watch.

So Here’s What You Do to Start Your Internet Video Marketing Journey

1) Create a video offering value about what you do using a camcorder, a webcam, or even the flip which is a video camera in the body of a regular camera and connects directly to your computer.
2) Have a call to action at the end of your video telling your prospects what you want them to do (ie: go to my website right now to receive my free report)
3) Upload the video onto YouTube and use targeted tags/keywords that will reach people looking for what you have to offer
4) Send that video out to your list, your co-workers, your clients, etc and ask them to pass it on
5) Post the video to your blog and if you don’t have a blog – start one on blogger
6) Post more videos and get more targeted, interested leads to your website

Great Websites to Create Screen Capture Videos

If you want to become a master at internet video marketing, you should learn how to use the following websites. These sites allow you to capture video of your computer screen. That means if you want to show people how to upload a video onto YouTube (for example), you can show them by doing it on your computer while the screen capture software records it. Here are a couple of websites that can help you do this…

1. Camtasia
2. Jingproject (allows you to create 5 minute videos)
3. Tech Smith
4. There are tons of other screen capture software options out there and all you need to do is a
search for “free screen capture software” on any search engine.

Internet video marketing is one of many successful ways to grow your business. The most successful way is to incorporate many different marketing aspects into whatever it is you do. So, you could write articles, use PPC, use blogs, create videos, do joint ventures, and the list of free marketing methods goes on and on. BUT, you have to get good at one thing before you move onto the next and internet video marketing is the hottest and quickest (not to mention easiest and cheapest) way to start.

So become good at internet video marketing (you don’t have to master it, just do it and get it out there) and them move onto other areas in marketing that will allow you to grow your business.

Video Marketing has become one of the latest marketing features on the Internet. It allows you to get your message out to clients, while directing them to your website for review. Compared to search engine marketing, videos can get high search rankings. While there are many online marketing strategies on the internet that are costly, using video services are free.

When creating powerful and profit pulling videos for My Internet Business there were some guidelines that I discovered. To start generating powerful video follows some of the tips below to get you started.

1.) Video Outline – It is important to decide upon the direction of the video and have a clear outline.

2.) Length of Video – Internet Users are busy now a days. They want to hear a message, relate to it and move on to the next step. When creating videos I suggest keeping the videos less then five minutes.

3.) Keywords – Use keyword tags to your videos. This makes it easy for other to find you. In addition they will be ranked on the search engines, so take some time and research the phrases that you are utilizing. The keywords should be relevant and concise with your video. Use as many keywords as allowed.

4,) Equipment – The equipment necessary, matters on the type of video you are doing. If you plan to tape yourself, or an event then you will need to have a web cam or a cam-corder. If you want a video of still pictures then neither of these are necessary. Even with the still pictures I would recommend putting your voice, narrating your video. You can get a quality microphone that attaches to your computer.

5.) Camera Shy -Some people just can’t imagine stepping in front of a video camera. Don’t feel bad this avenue may not be for you now but as you grow and become more confident you
may consider stepping in front of the camera. However, if you are not ready to at this point do not stop yourself from creating a video. Some of the best videos for My Internet Business, were done with still shots. You can create very attractive, and profit pulling videos from using still photos.

6.) Submit your Videos – There are many great networking sites on the Internet that you can submit your videos. Don’t submit your video to one spot, upload them to as many free submissions as you can.

7,) Call To Action – How have I been able to sell My Internet Business products and services? By having a call to action. Make sure that you at least tell your customer base what you want them to do. Its important at the end of the video provide your URL where they can visit your products and services. I highly recommend also including your telephone number should they have questions.

8.) Originality – Do not copy or use material that is not yours, this is against the law. If you use any other material make sure that you have permission.

9.) Marketing Your Video – Once you have uploaded a Video, you will be given a URL. Now you should go market it. Post it on a Blog, share it in your favorite social networking spot. While most submission sites will give you traffic you can help yourself along by sharing your video with others.

10.) Sharing your Video – I have found one of my best tools are my family, and friends. They will give you opinions on your video. When using videos for My Internet Business I always wanted to improve. If your friends don’t like one of your creations do not have hurt feelings ask them what they think you could have done better. With any form of online marketing you should be looking to improve. Your friends and family may be a good resource to helping you out.

Video Marketing has become one of the newest online marketing trends. The one thing that I have noticed when using videos for My Internet Business, is that my clients appear to get to know me and my products before they even visit my website. One of the most difficult things to having an Internet Business is that you lose that one on one interaction. Video marketing brings a little of that personal touch to your client base.

Video is just like starting an Internet Business, there are things you must learn and implement. The best thing you can do for yourself is just go for it. Take the time to follow some of the above tips. You will never improve on video marketing until you just start doing it.

With the squeeze on businesses around the world you can bet your bottom dollar that there will be a closer scrutiny on how a company’s advertising revenue is being spent in the face of the recent credit crunch.

Some industry experts however believe that online advertising will continue to grow as businesses seek more bang for there buck so to speak. Online advertising is a growing aspect of business marketing in the internet age even if you don’t own an e-commerce website, and one particular brand of marketing online is of course Viral Video Marketing.

So what exactly is Viral video marketing and how can it fit into your marketing portfolio and strategy.

According to one of the UK’s leading viral video marketing experts Breon Snowdon, Managing director of the award winning Surrect Media design and production company based in the UK. Viral marketing and viral advertising refer to marketing techniques that seek to exploit pre-existing social networks to produce exponential increases in brand awareness, through viral processes similar to the spread of an epidemic.

Snowden’s statement sums it up nicely but there is also a number of upsides to web marketing campaigns (especially viral ones) that businesses are starting to take notice of.

One of these is the cost base. Unlike the very expensive television advertising and traditional media advertising avenues, web video marketing can be far more economical and a businesses exposure to its potential customers tends to be more than the snapshot 2 minutes or glance an advert in the national press will likely receive.

Interesting and well thought out videos can keep a customer captivated often for more than five minutes at a time and if the video is particularly interesting or sufficiently informative or funny quite often they will go viral. This is where the true magic happens as your video is spread by word of mouth, e-mail or even gets bookmarked at the many social networks that are now part of the every day buzz of the internet. This is the viral video marketing effect.

Production cost can be very low compared to traditional televised media so this aspect alone makes web video marketing a very attractive option indeed, even for the small business owner. Equally with a well, though out brief and a sound strategy it is possible to make more than one cut of a video so it can be uploaded to the internet more than once furthering the chance of viral growth.

Some traditional retailers for example Tiger Direct have taken the bull by the horns and now use video to sell their product online as this not only gives them massive exposure, but they can effectively pre-sell a customer on the latest emerging technology or upgrade product for a home computer for example enhancing their own brand at the same time.

Whilst this does not fall under the general banner of viral video marketing it does go to show that web video marketing is being taken very seriously indeed by any business wanting to get their message out there and increase the visibility of their brands or products.

Another positive benefit and aspect of viral video marketing is of course to all intents and purposes it is timeless, which flies totally in the face of normal advertising.

Simply put a TV advert for example will only be shown at certain times for pre defined number of views. For more exposure you must pay a lot more, and once your run of adverts has finished, your return on your investment will all but cease. This is similar to traditional media advertising where an advert can run for as little as a day.

Viral video marketing is entirely the opposite as once you have made your initial investment your video can be viewed around the world at any time of the day 24/7, and as has been shown in many examples currently doing the rounds a good viral video campaign can keep your brand or message out there for years.

If your not ready to jump in a commission a viral video marketing campaign straight away, don’t forget there are a number of other very positive benefits of using video, and that is of course for your on page presentations.

A well thought out video presentation can be a very effective and professional medium to pre’warm potential customers or clients visiting your web site and can really set your business apart from your competition, but don’t wait too long though or you may be left behind.

The famed J. Bill Gates, who shared his secrets to wealth and riches

i) Be an observer of the trends

ii) Be at the right place at the right time

iii) Take massive immediate action!

And recently, he added the following

iv) There are two types of business, those that are online and those that are out of business!

YouTube, Google, Yahoo & MySpace are part of the trend, they are web 2.0, they are also video sharing sites and they are part of the famed social media/social marketing trend!

Should you include Video Marketing your marketing arsenal?

If I have to answer that question, clearly you in the wrong place! Do not even think about excluding video marketing. Internet Video Marketing gives you the option to supercharge your marketing efforts as it allows you to reach 500,000+. Ever heard of virology? Well as usual I must turn to my trusted friend Wikipedia: The term viral video refers to video clip content which gains widespread popularity through the process of Internet sharing, typically through email or IM messages, blogs and other media sharing websites.

The Interactive Advertising Bureau indicates that more than 50% of the US population will watch video online in 2008. That is approximately 155.2 million people. TRAFFIC, FREE MLM LEADS, SALES!

Armed with this knowledge, it appears that online video sharing and internet video marketing your is clearly one of the best venues in which to engage an audience of your peers and target market! Most people you meet are going to be audio-visual learners. They need to see and hear in order to get the message. Free video allows you multilevel (no pun intended) communication, your platforms include visual imagery, spoken word, visual text and music! As you can see the possibilities are endless. How? Through free video sharing websites, you guessed it YouTube, MySpace, Google, Yahoo and many others!

YOUTUBE – MYSPACE…How do I reach The Masses?

The hype of video sharing sites is related to the word “FREE!”

Yes it is free to upload your video using the many video sharing sites…that just about it. REMEMBER Nothing comes from nothing, nothing ever could…The trick, the art form here lies in being able to reach your is having the correct video marketing tools, the right target market/audience i.e., know who you market your video to and then getting people to share your video – a concept commonly referred to as video viral marketing!

I am going to be kind to you and help you out a bit some of the best marketing video concepts!

Creating a video is a composite function of four interrelated parts, which add up to 100. These parts are Content, Metatags, Thumbnails and Promotion! The aforementioned interrelated parts are integral in assisting you to communicate your message so that is has reach – this is the essence of virology!

50% Content = Content is the basic story line (your subject matter). It is your message. Content answers the question what do you want your audience to know? What action if any do you want them to take. Along with content, there is Production. Production involves style, lighting, graphics you know the fun Hollywood stuff!,

15% MetaTags = Silly annoying techie language for something so simple! Metatags include the text title of your masterpiece, your very valuable keywords, descriptions, and categories that help people find your video. In other words if I do not bother to watch the video, can I still get the gist of your message or do I need a cryptic decoder?

20% Thumbnail = Thumbnail refers to visual merchandising. It is the art of window dressing that draws you into your favorite clothing store, where you drop the bucks you swore you didn’t have in the first place! Catch my drift? So it is the packaging which, draws people in when displayed on the page! It tells the story about your video and continues the process of virology!

15% Promotion = Well for lack of a better term…it refers to getting the word out a.k.a marketing. But reach itself is insufficient. Your message must create an emotional connection with your target audience. WHY? It is your call to action! And what does this accomplish?

Careers are launched and well the world goes round, but sadly the price of oil stays the same…oh well!

Your goal is to get as many references on the internet back to your business websites from as many high page rank sources as possible. If you cannot create video you cannot get your content on these sites. Creating video articles is a fast way to create the type of video content that can be submitted to these popular sites.

Fast and simple tips to create a video article

1. Take an existing article and read it first as audio only. You will need some kind of microphone and recording software.

2. Create bullet points of text to sync to your recorded narration.

3. If you have a PC you already have Windows Movie Maker where you can sync your bullet points of text to your narration. You then save this as an .avi video file and upload to a social video sharing site.

4. Another more advanced option is to create your bullets and images in Power Point, download CamStudio 2.0, a free screen capture video software. Then you simultaneously in real time read your article and sync your slides and your video is done in one take.

5. Another simple way to build relationships is to use a camcorder or a USB NetCam and read the article to the camera.

These are quick and simple ways you can get started on a shoe string budget with video articles.

Video marketing with video articles is one of the quickest ways to get visitors to your site. First directly through your link in the description and second through high rankings in the search engines.
