Google Will Reward You for Video

Are you tired of lousy Google rankings for your website or blog?

Are you wasting hundreds of dollars on Google pay-per-click advertising that isn’t making anybody except the Google advertising people happy?

I hear from dozens of Publicity Hounds each week who are doing just that. That’s why I tell them to start cranking out short videos as fast as they can. Google and the other search engines place a high premium on video, even low-cost videos made by amateurs.

Why? Because web surfers love watching video. Take a look at the statistics:

–More than 141 million Americans viewed online video in December of last year alone.

–YouTube is almost double the size of Google, the granddaddy of search engines, in the number of page views.

–More than half of all videos online are being watched on other websites, not just on YouTube. That means that if you upload your video to YouTube, bloggers, website owners and anyone else can embed your video link at their blog or website, thus giving your video even more exposure and your website more traffic. And you don’t pay them a cent for doing it.

–Video can reward you with more traffic, a higher conversion rate on your sales pages and maybe even a call from a journalist who watches one of your videos and wants to interview you.

On Thursday night, I’ll be on the phone taking notes furiously on Tom Antion’s teleseminar on “How to Get Instant High Rankings on Google Using Short Videos.” Then I’ll be converting some of the videos I use in my live workshops for the web.

Don’t miss this call, and his special bonus to the first 200 people who sign up. Read more about what you’ll learn at http://www.PublicityHound.net/antionvideo
