What You Need:
All you really need to become a video marketer is a
digital video camera, web-cam or a screen capture
software.

Video maker software. The software that comes with
Windows or Apple should do. I have Vegas
Movie Maker...I like it.

The last thing you need is online service...that's it.

Creating Content:
The content should be interesting and short. I find 2
to 5 minute videos are perfect. Don't go over 5 minutes
unless it's a training video. Also remember that for
MPEG formats, 5 minutes equals about the max allowed
on most video sites. WMM files can be as long as
20 minutes before you reach most sites maximums.

I make videos talking about my business, my products
or my experience. There are endless possibilities.

Converting The Video:
Depending on how you recorded your video, you probably have to make a
movie and then convert it into an MPEG or a WMM file. Any movie making
software should be able to do that with no problems.

When creating the movie, I like to also put text into my video like the one
below so people see my website on the screen.

Once I have the video made, I'm ready to upload the video to any video
site or place it on my site.

Uploading Your Video:
Video sites accept most formats and make it very easy
to upload your videos. First you will need to create an
account with these video sites, similar to what you
need to do when submitting to article hubs. Once you
have created an account, you're ready to upload your
video.

A great way to post your videos to lots of sites with little effort is to use a tool like below. It is for video what the
Article Submitter is for submitting articles. It's a great tool and will help you speed up the process of posting,
which can take a lot of time.

You can get this tool for just $1.00 for the first week.

Titling & Description Of Your Video:
This is an extremely important part of posting...maybe the most important point. Your keyword should be in the
title bar and in the description (body of text) of the video. Watch the video above. The principle mentioned for
article marketing also applies to video marketing.

You're then asked to add your tags. Some sites want you to use spaces, some commas between keywords...
just pay attention. You use your name, your main keywords as keyword tags (2 -5 max).

You want to think ask yourself this question: if I only have 3 keywords to choose from, under what category do I
want Google to find me?

To make it easier to upload videos, I have one document that has all my video descriptions in it. If I find go from
site to site, I just copy the description from that document and paste it into the site. I do change the Headline
and the Description slightly to get me more exposure in the search engine and eliminate the duplication issue
with search engines.

How to get your Google, YouTube and MySpace

I learned this from my friend Anthony Bowen...he is
a dedicated marketer and genius.

Simply add &autoplay=1 to the code to your Google
videos.
