5 Tips How to Increase Traffic by Using YouTube

Online video marketing is one of the popular methods of product promotion used by marketers today, and YouTube, with its viewers and worldwide availability, is the best place for placing videos. Here a five tips on how you can increase traffic using YouTube.
Tip#1 Use Good Keywords with Your Video
You may have a quality video that viewers can really benefit from, but they must find it first. To increase the chances of your video getting viewed, target the specific words that people use to search for your product or service, and include these keywords in the title and description of your video.  The more people that view your video, the more chances of those users following your link.   Note: place the keyword title as the first thing in your description for maximum results.
Also, very important, never mislabel the content of your video. If you find a high traffic phrase but your video content doesn’t match, YouTube will delete your video and possibly your account. Don’t learn the hard way.
Tip#2 Increase Channel Views
Increasing your popularity is another method to increase traffic using YouTube. If you have a new channel with not many people subscribed to it, you won’t be able to get too many viewers of your content. By increasing channel views your YouTube rank will increase. If you have some money to invest in your business, you can use it to buy channel views.
Tip#3 Increase Favorites
You may have noticed the most favorite category on the main page of YouTube. If you get into this category, every YouTube viewer who comes to the main page can see your video displayed on it. Just like channel views, favorites can be purchased as well.
Tip #4 Increase Video Views
The more video views you get the higher your video will rank in YouTube’s search engine rankings and Google’s rankings. YouTube ranks everything based on popularity.
Tip #5 Get Back Links to Your YouTube Video
Link to your video from Facebook, Twitter, Digg, MySpace and all the rest. The more back links, the higher your video will rank on YouTube and Google search results.
These are five tips for video marketers looking to increase traffic using YouTube. Bottom line, the more popular your video, the more popular it will become and the more traffic you will get.
I recommend using a YouTube SEO service that delivers real views, comments, subscribers and likes to your YouTube video.
