Using video to promote your affiliate products can not only get you good search engine results, it can generate some great traffic. Here I share with you more of my infamous affiliate marketing tips – let’s discover the most important components required to create a powerful video marketing campaign.
What is a video marketing?
Videos aren’t just good for gaining traffic, they are great when put to work on creating market awareness, building trust and relationships and for educational purposes. They do not have to be expensive or even difficult to create and develop. With just a few hours work, you can pump out a compelling video that performs well on YouTube or any of the other video sharing sites. If you choose to spend a few hundred on it, then it will be slick and it will gain more traffic.
YouTube is the dominant site in the arena, however there are several other sites that are free and making a name for themselves such as Vimeo. To help out with distribution, there are several services who will do this for you.
How to Create a Video
Even if you create a video for free, there is no reason why it cannot look as though it’s professional. With so many videos being watched, internet users are expecting to see high quality marketing material.
Write the script
An entertaining video will gain buckets more traffic than something that is dry and overly informational. People have very short attention, so try to stick to a video of around 2 – 4 minutes long for the first time around. Every market is different, and you can learn more about what works and doesn’t as you go.
Record the script
Recording devices can be found on laptops or even mobile devices. Depending on what your creative video idea is, you could record the voiceover of any slides separately and edit it to fit the slideshow.
Create your storyboard
This might be a ‘how to’ style video. You could demonstrate how to use the product that you are selling. Alternatively you could demonstrate the results of it. All consumers want to know what the benefits are of any product and they also want to see credible results.
Record your video
If you are using your computer for a ‘how to’ then you can use products such as Camtasia. Alternatively, you might want to record your video with you speaking, in which case your built in camera on your computer would do the trick. If you are appearing, wear a t-shirt promoting your website.
Edit your video
Use the video editing software that was supplied with your computer. Keep it tight and smooth in transitions.
Distribute your video
Sites that are free to add your video to include: Google, YouTube, Vimeo, Yahoo Video, Viddler and Veoh. If you don’t want to upload it yourself, you could purchase credits or a membership with HeySpread or TrafficGeyser. Be sure to use the tagging and description to promote your business and website.
So, there you have my best tips to create a successful marketing video.
