SEO Tip: Make Video Part of Your Marketing Plan
Yesterday the Google Webmaster team made a big annoucement about sitemaps. Currently they offer two types of sitemaps a general website map and a mobile sitemap. With their announcement yesterday they introduced video sitemaps. This new video sitemap will make it easier for Google to index your videos. The announcement is new, if you'd like more info about how to setup a video sitemap check out the Google webmaster blog. If you are using a CMS like ubertor or another system you will have to wait for them to integrate the video sitemap but don't worry the guys at Ubertor are sharp and you can bet they will be keeping a close eye on the video sitemaps
Here is my tip related to video...
JUST DO IT!! -- It is simple to create a short 1 minute video, post it on YouTube and then embed it on your site.
Yesterday we posted a 45 second video on our homepage and we have already received 40 views. It took us 2 minutes to shoot, 10 minutes to edit, and 5 minutes to embed on our site. So in less than 20 minutes time we have a short personalized into to our website.
So grab your camera and get to shooting. The video craze is here and you don't want to be playing catch up.
