II. Video marketing tips 
#1: Make your title count 
Just like a headline to a blog post, 
video titles can pull powerful 
traffic. There are two main reasons 
why the title is so important. One, 
a great title can instantly grab a 
viewer’s attention. 
Two, when you use the appropriate keywords in your title, you are more 
likely to show up on search engines when people are searching for your 
Video marketing. Free pdf download examples Page 7
topic. And remember Google owns YouTube, so there’s a story 
connection between video and searching. 
#2: Provide excellent content 
Take some time to think about your ideal viewer. What do you know 
that they’ll find valuable? What can you teach them? “How-to” videos 
are extremely successful because not only do they offer great value to 
your viewer, but also you’re able to showcase your knowledge and skill, 
thus positioning yourself as an expert. This is key as you continue to 
grow your brand. 
#3: Include your URL in your video 
When you edit your video, take advantage of the different editing 
features. One easy feature is to add a text box to your video. This is 
where you can display your website address and it’s a great way to get 
exposure. 
Here’s a screen shot of Mari Smith’s YouTube channel. Notice how she 
used a text box in her video to display key information, including her 
website URL at the end of her video. Smart move! 
#4: Take advantage of video’s branding opportunities 
For branding purposes, have your company logo displayed prominently 
somewhere on the screen. You can do this at all times, or during key 
times in your video. 
In the image below, notice how the company logo is displayed in the 
upper-left corner. You can display your logo throughout your video or 
only at key times. 
Video marketing. Free pdf download examples Page 8
#5: Always provide an HTML link 
When you post on YouTube, you have the option to write a short 
description of your video. Always start with the link you want to drive 
your viewers to so you don’t miss this key opportunity. 
Here’s a snapshot of the description boxes from one of my YouTube 
videos. Notice the placement of my website URL (it’s the first thing 
you want to put in the box!) and the keywords I used in my title as well 
as the description. 
#6: Go beyond YouTube 
Most people post their videos on YouTube. In addition to this, make 
sure to always embed your video on your own website. This will 
increase the amount of time people spend on your website and help grow 
a captive audience. 
Also, Google’s algorithms consider how many times a video is viewed, 
and embedded video views you receive get added to the ‘views’ tally on 
YouTube. This is important for showing up in Google search results!
