Basically you put together a quick little video and you do Video SEO to rank that video in the search engines for your chosen keyword and because your ranking a YouTube video google will already love you. What are the benefits of this? Well ranking a YouTube URL in the search engines is going to be a lot easier that trying to rank your own website URL.
Why? Because YouTube is massive and has massive authority in the eyes of Google. In fact YouTube is Google as Google own YouTube. So whatever video you put on YouTube for doing SEO you will find it easy to rank for your chosen keyword. Thats why you should be learning YouTube SEO and Video SEO. So lest go through what you need to do. I’m just going to explain how this YouTube SEO and Video SEO stuff works step by step so pay close attention because I’m just going to tell you what to do in order.
YouTube SEO
The first thing you need to do when doing video SEO is to do your keyword research. When doing any SEO keyword research is always going to be your first step. So go to the Google keyword tool (just google it) and start typing in some keywords that is related to what you want to rank for. A little tip here is to not pick something very broad. Let me give you an example here. Lets as you wanted to rank for the keyword [make money online] well you could type that in but because that keyword has a lot of competition it will be very hard to rank for even when leaning on the power of a YouTube SEO video.
So when using this YouTube Video SEO method you can pick medium competition keyword terms because you have YouTube backing you up but I would still not go for super high competition keywords because it will take you forever to get ranked using SEO. So hopefully you have found a nice long tailed keyword you think you can rank for. Great now you need to make your video. If you have never setup a video before do not worry its very easy you can simply use screen capture software like camtasia to record the screen of your computer.
You do not even need to show you face. Just recode the screen of your computer and say a few words on the subject keyword and your done. You can even put a little powerpoint slide together and recode that as your talking. Once your done its time to upload your video to YouTube. This is where the video SEO comes in. Its very important to get the on page SEO right. SO you must put the keyword in the title and put it in the description of the video and I almost forgot you also need to put a link inside your description leading people to your website.
Video SEO
Its not a bad idea to talk about your website in your video and direct people over to it. In fact I highly recommend you do that. Once you have done that the next step is to get back links and lots of them. Now this is the good part. Normally when doing SEO to your own website if you get to many back links at once google will sandbox your website because they think something doggy is going on. However Google will never sandbox there own website which is YouTube and hundreds of thousands of links coming into your YouTube video will not look bad anyway because as you can imagine how many links is getting pointed at YouTube on a daily basic. Its huge amounts of links.
So do not worry about getting sand boxed. And if you do not know what sand boxed is it just means Google has taken your site out of the search engines so no one will see your website or webpage. So now you know you can get as many links as you want for your YouTube SEO video just head over to a place called fiverr.com and you can pay people $5 to get you thousands of high quality links. Just keep doing this everyday until you see your YouTube SEO video number 1 in the search results for your keyword.
