As anyone who has been online for any length of time can tell you video is all the rage these days and there doesn’t seem to be any end in sight. This trend is evidenced by the popularity of You Tube and other video sharing websites on the web.
For example, according to Viral blog: “You Tube exceeds 2 billion views per day. There are 24 hours of video uploaded every minute. The average person spends 15 minutes per day on You Tube. More video is uploaded to You Tube in 60 days than all 3 major US networks created in 60 years.”
These statistics are mind boggling and serve to prove our earlier statement regarding the popularity of this media on the Internet today. With this being the case it would be irresponsible for any Internet marketer to ignore the possibilities tapping into this awaiting market could create for their home based business online. With that being said here are 4 ways you can use video to help explode your profits on the web:
1. The major search engines online, just like everyone else it seems, love video. To take advantage of this fact you can make this medium a major part of your Internet marketing strategy by employing it more on your website. For example, if you’re into article marketing you can turn your articles into videos which will help attract more traffic to your home page via Google and company.
You can also upload your finished product, with your URL attached, to Google as well as some of the other video sharing websites to help create back links to your home page which will also drive targeted visitors, with their credit cards in hand, to your website.
2. Why not create a half hour weekly video similar to a television show which entertains and informs your audience at the same time? Whatever your niche happens to be you can tailor your production around this theme which will attract the targeted audience your home business craves in order to increase sales and profits.
Of course you will have to upload your finished product to the top video sharing sites online while advertising your weekly show before its debut via different outlets on the web; including your own website.
3. How about creating video reviews of different affiliate products which show you using the merchandise while pointing out its strengths and weaknesses. By advertising your video review site you’ll increase traffic via search engine results from people looking for information about certain items they’re in the market for, and wanting to purchase.
4. Another way you can showcase your video production skills while increasing your website viewer ship is by creating a so called reality show type of situation with your product being the star of the presentation. You could show a day in the life of product xyz while demonstrating how it makes your day-to-day living so much easier.
Of course it’s always a good idea to inject some humor into your production because people love to laugh and who knows this may make your video go viral. Viral marketing is a big advantage of using video because, if it happens, it could establish a constant stream of new visitors to your home page for a long time to come.
So as you can see you’re only limited by your imagination when it comes to inventing ways to use video on your home business website to increase your targeted traffic, to explode your sales and to establish your reputation as the next Steven Spielberg online.
