Comment on Online Video for the Guerrilla Marketer by Val Gosset

Thanks, Curtis. You hit the nail on the head with the "over 40" comment. And over 40 or not, I think a lot of people mistakenly feel that online video requires a lot more than it really does to be effective. (See my earlier post on that subject.) I'll be curious to hear what you think of SpotMixer.

Video camera’s are getting easier to use … many have NO tape or harddrive … just flash memory. Many record in a format already ready to upload to your website or utube directly. Also, some of the software packages for editing video are under $100 and fairly easy to use (if you are over 40 years old, there is no such thing as easy). Will check out the option you mention above!

I’ll try it out and tell you what I think!

Thanks for the tip. The closest thing I have seen to this is people creating their own polldaddy surveys, but this is a much more elegant solution.

I agree completely, Ernie. I think a lot of companies are going to get blindsided quickly if they don’t grasp the importance of incorporating video into their marketing. Glad you found ReelSEO helpful!

Thanks Val! Because video on the Internet has become so much easier to produce and distribute, there has been a tremendous increase in its use and popularity. Online companies cannot afford to ignore this trend. ReelSEO looks like a valuable resource to help us effectively exploit this technology.

Val:

This is a great resource that you’ve shared with your readers. Google Webmaster tools is one of the best ways to make sure you give Google what they want.

It couldn’t be easier. Google tells you what it needs to make your website be more easily found by their robots and they also tell you how to do it.

And, it’s free! You can’t beat that.

Great information – you’re always ON IT.
