I am very new to creating "videos" for marketing or for any purpose. I only started publishing slideshows of my visual artwork on YouTube a few months ago. I still need to get a camera for creating decent video for YouTube and other sites. I keep hearing about specific camera brands in the USA designed for that purpose, but they aren't available here yet. In any case, it is important for marketing to consider the use of video, podcasts and other media with video sharing sites like YouTube.
YouTube is the largest video sharing site right now, but there are others and it is important to get your videos seen by people on a variety of sites even if most of your video views and traffic come from one site.
I really enjoy YouTube and how it was easy to get my updates published to Facebook and Twitter automatically, but YouTube doesn't distribute videos to other sites so that is where TubeMogul helps.
With TubeMogul you upload videos to their system and add your credentials for other video sharing websites like blip.tv, metacafe, dailymotion, myspace, etc.. You can even add your YouTube settings and it will upload to YouTube as well.
Once the videos are up, TubeMogul will start to collect statistics from different sharing websites and make general, per site, and per video reports so you can see which sites are getting the most video views.
Video marketing is great for branding and for generating interest in what you are offering. If you can make informative, funny, or otherwise interesting videos, you will get more traffic and new business contacts.
Which video sharing websites get you the most views?
Do you also generate sales with your video marketing efforts?
