YouTube is one of the most popular sites on the Internet, and one of the most searched sites. Leveraging the popularity of YouTube to promote your affiliate marketing sites, would bring you added traffic, and higher search engine rankings. I'm going to reveal how a complete beginner can do this with little effort at all.
When people are trying to learn about products, often they will visit YouTube to see if someone features a video showing, demonstrating, and discussing the product. The power of a movie demonstrating and discussing something has more impact compared to simple written text about the product. You will also see the same thing in "How To" topics. If you can watch someone perform a task, compared to reading about how they made it happen, you are able to often learn much quicker.
When you search for home elevators Google, you will observe that frequently relevant YouTube videos arrive nearby the the top of Google listings. We would all love to have our content listed at the top of Google, to drive more traffic to our offers. Using YouTube videos gives you a greater opportunity to achieve the front page of Google.
By creating great product review, and product "how to" videos on YouTube, you are able to leverage this power, creating additional traffic flowing into your sales sites. Making consistent money in affiliate marketing requires you create a consistent flow of readers and viewers into your sales sites. YouTube is a superb way to boost and maintain that traffic.
When I create a video to promote one of my affiliate sites, I place a link to my site as the very first item in the description of my video. You can not create a link with anchor text, so it generally does not have the maximum amount of impact as a keyword focused link, but is still relevant. Also, I place a mention of my website address at both first and ending of my video, as an overlay on the video.
You will need to ensure you include your important keyword phrases in both the description of one's video, and also in the tags for the video. The tags and description will assist in people finding your video, and also in ranking for Google results.
On some of my affiliate marketing sites, YouTube videos have represented almost 50% of my daily traffic, with a combination between clicks from the description and with people typing in my website address. Many times it's been the difference between one of my affiliate sites not earning money, and learning to be a profitable part of my affiliate money making business scam risk.
When I've created a good review video of something to use on YouTube, I will also embed the video into my affiliate sales site. This gives my other readers the opportunity to both read my product review, and also to view the video. Having videos on my affiliate marketing sites, often increases the sales conversion, increasing my profits.
Creating YouTube videos as part of your affiliate marketing strategy, can supply you with the added boost to make higher profits, changing a low producing site, in to a good money maker.
