Google owns Youtube and they will give your site more authority to your site compared to an exact site without video. Video will increase your traffic and your website ranking too. We use this as one of our strategies to increase traffic and ranking for our websites.

If you want to rank a video on Youtube and increase your traffic faster make sure you use low competition keywords and include them in your video title and in the description too. Preferably keywords should be in the domain name as well.

Marketing videos can be effective tools for promoting your business and selling your products. The viewer does not have to read through pages of text to learn about the benefits of your products. Also, videos are typically more engaging than sales letters. Video marketing has become particularly common on the Internet, where users expect to find information quickly and easily.

He times have changed and people don't have the attention span that they used to. The bounce around from site to site such as Twitter or Facebook, and if there isn't a video that grabs their attention, the customer can easily be lost.

Videos are still relevant. We live in a very visual heavy,content rich,viral video promoting society that basically needs the visual stimulation to match the text. Even if the video took on average 2 hours to make(which that would be the minimal amount of time it should take to make a really good viral video(actors or topic not included). Then, you should have a pretty good product visual that can generate buzz. In addition to Youtube, and most video posting websites are key to at least getting a viewer then a couple of leads if the information cannot be gathered or downloaded from any other source on the net. You become valuable and others will share your video. Simple as that.

It's not just the video but its content and quality as well. People love to watch videos nowadays since its quite convincing that the ones you read. It's all about marketing strategy -if you want your product to be on the right tract. Marketers won't try it if it isn't working. Have a good one and see what happens.
