More and more web site owners are taking advantage of the
exponential growth in video sharing sites and syndicating
video for link popularity and direct traffic.
There are now at least 50 very solid video sharing sites
with high traffic numbers and rankings across all the major
search engines. Many more video sites are online and
ramping up to be players as well.
As I predicted when YouTube took off, video sites are fast
replacing article directories as the "darlings" of
syndication for link building and targeted traffic
generation.
Video is becoming ridiculously easy to create these days
and even rank amateurs have a plethora of tools that make
video production a snap for them. The main problem is
video is very big and takes a long time to upload to all
the video sharing sites.
It's not at all like articles where you can easily
syndicate across a huge base of article directories in a
snap with the right article syndication service.
Or is it?
New services are coming online to take advantage of the
great demand marketers have for easy video syndication. Of
course this is a natural development now that there are
enough sites to drive video marketers crazy and make them
seek out syndication services that will help them spread
their videos without uploading them one site at a time.
The original video syndication service, Traffic Geyser, is
quite a bit more expensive than article syndication
services. But then, they have to deal with a huge
bandwidth bill each month from uploading hundreds or even
thousands of videos across all the main video sharing sites.
There are free video uploading services, but they are very
light in the number of video sites they upload to.
As demand for easy video syndication continues to rise,
watch for more and more competitors to come online and take
their spot in the video syndication industry.
If you were around when article marketing took off, you
know what's about to happen in the video marketing
industry. It's going to be an even greater explosion than
article marketing was when it hits critical mass.
The smart marketers are making how-to videos and
re-purposing their written content into video scripts as
fast as they can to get ahead of the video marketing boom
that is just beginning to really take off across the web.
First movers always get the best results, but video
marketing is just starting to show massive promise and
there's still time to get ahead of the masses before
everyone is marketing with video.
