Hello everyone. I am happy to setup this YouTube case study . I will be having a few questions for those who have used you tube successfully.
First things first, I have setup my site, real quick as i am a designer myself and registered a .com . I will be promoting mostly coupons and free samples, Most of these are email submits e.t.c. There is no incentive traffic. The YouTube videos are then linked to my main site domain where i will also build my list once i start seeing some traffic.
My main goal is to hit 300 videos before looking into earnings. The average number of videos I will be uploading per day will be 10.
The Main goal monetarily is to see 500 days, I know it takes quite some work, and am ready to put it in.
Tools of Trade:
- Keyword Tool (Adwords tool, Ubersuggest and Keywordxtreme)
- Video Marketing Dominator (VMD) (Although produces only 1 background videos, but can convert text to speech, and Spin)
- Windows Movie maker - Still important for me to produce quality videos.
- Get views from view sharing website (Still haven't figured a way to go about this). The only thing i used before is viewet.com which charges $3 for 1k views. I want a free way to avoid spending though (You can advice on this). I have also heard of some opera/firefox techniques, but i do not think it works since i doubt if youtube counts them as legit views.
- Macromedia fireworks for background edits.
- Tube banking (This will be a concurrent test)
CPA Company I will be working with are 2 - Max bounty and Amped media
Methodology:
- First, RESEARCH - I focus a lot on keyword research. I spend most of my time in adwords tool first (filter local 5000-20,000), then move to uber suggest to get those long tail keywords. I then use keyword xtreme to compare and get the real statistics. Keyword xtreme pulls lots of keywords long tail with Broad Search, Phrase Search, All in Title. I still don't know which column to sort by. I will need your help on whether to focus on broad OR exact plus the correct range of numbers to target. I do not want to target a keyword with 100million searches and 1million competitors then i get lost inside there. Please advice, I can send sample KW file to experts only for advice.
- Secondly, Straight to Making YouTube videos (Either Text to Speech videos with 1 background (using VMD) in 5minutes OR (Audio Visual using Windows Movie maker in 20-30minutes).
- I will be doing direct linking as I still do not know how to setup tracking for this. I also try and include the keyword in the description and in the tags as well. I put around 5-8 tags.
- Once videos are up, I ping it, Digg it, Reddit (Although they keep me waiting 1hr), Pin it to send automatically to twitter and Facebook.
So far so good, I have never tried videos and I hope that through the help of this community , I will be able to make a difference in other peoples lives and mine as well.
Action Taken in last 2 days:
Did 12 videos, - 10 promoting some baby offers whilst 2 promoting a beverage drink.
I made 5 videos and spinned them to be 10 videos which I developed using VMD whilst the other 2 were done using Windows movie maker.
Finally, I proceeded today and Digged them, reddit them, pinned them and tweeted as well.
Results
I am top 5 for some 2 videos already for their specific keywords , but still no traffic yet. also impressed to see one video I created competing with another one of mine too. I also noted videos appear as fast as in minutes to show in Google.
Still 0 Clicks
I will keep you posted as I move along.
I am doing YouTube in order to raise some cash for investment in Pay Per View as I tested one and was impressed to make a small loss. A sign, that i needed more and more testing to get it done.
Feel free to share your opinions, advice, corrections for the overall benefit of us all. BTW, I am into Internet Marketing full time and hope that we be of help to each other. Thanks
All the Best, Cheers
