You’ve got some more work that needs to be done before the masses come rushing to watch your videos and the first thing you need to do is to get the search engines indexing your videos. So here are a handful of tips so get reading already because time is a wasting.
Keywords “If you don’t have good keywords then you might as well quit now. These are vital pieces of information that will help categorize your videos and make them findable in search engines. When people search for video what do they do? They put words into a text box on a webpage and that’s how they search. So make sure you choose specific words that correctly describe your video and then use those words in the title, description and the keyword areas when you post the video up on the web.
Video Sharing Sites “Let’s face it Yahoo and Google know where YouTube is and might not know where your site is. So if you want people to discover your videos then you should put them where the search engines go. YouTube gets more people searching for videos than any other site on the web. So it’s no surprise that we say you should use them, now is it? There are other video aggregation and search engines where you can specifically submit your videos to and some take single video entries while others use Media RSS files.
RSS and MRSS “Google Webmaster Tools allows you to link sitemaps so that the Googlebots can more easily find your content. RSS is generally used for standard text and image-based content while MRSS is used for media itself, and can really help boost your search results ranking. You see video, like some other forms of content, not only gets indexed separately in some respects but is also seen by certain search engines as better content. But you’ve got to tell them where to find it and what it is and that’s what the MRSS file does.
Three simple things you can do to help get your videos noticed by the search engines. No they’re not the only things you can do but are more like the tip of the iceberg. These are probably three things that you will most often see suggested by SEO people. They are not the only things you can do and others include good content that’s interesting and easy to share with others.
