Marketing online is really all about the content.  The more content that is produced, the better the chances are of being noticed by the search engine spiders and by target audience members that are looking for what you have to offer.  Businesses get that, but what they sometimes don’t get is what this content should be.  They immediately think “text” when they think of web content.  Articles, blog posts, and white papers are great but they might not be reaching all of the right people.

Some people simply don’t want to spend their time reading, but they are much more likely to watch a short video that explains the exact same thing.  That’s why it’s important to include videos as a part of your content marketing strategy.  While it’s true that the search engine spiders are blind and can’t actually see a video, online marketing initiatives shouldn’t be done just to please the search engines.  It’s about your target audience and if they like watching videos, videos need to be created.

You saw it coming to this over the past few weeks, didn’t you? I have been writing a lot lately about “viral video” and “social video,” and now it’s time to give them the ultimate face-off. What’s the difference between viral video and social video? Which has the edge today, and which is the future of online video marketing?

Social video is essentially the spread of any video via social media. Brands are realizing there is more power in customers who share videos with their friends than in simple video views, which can be manipulated more easily and don’t demonstrate the same level of affinity and engagement.

But brands aren’t alone in tapping social media to spread a video message. In fact, cause marketing is one of the fastest growing trends in social video. And with today’s technology, individuals are as likely to see their cause go viral as brands or nonprofits.

It was another big week for viral videos. You probably heard about the Facebook Arm Tattoo video (which was a hoax), or the video of the soldiers who were charged for extra bags by Delta… or maybe you caught one of the dozens of great new video game clips from the E3 conference.

One of the greatest lessons I’ve picked up at the No Excuses Summit about video marketing is this, it doesn’t matter how crappy your video is – Just make sure you’ve got a damn good audio!

I would definitely recommend the Kodak Zi8 if you haven’t gotten yourself a video camera and are looking for one. So just get those videos done, quit worrying about looking good and worrying about sounding good. I’ve experienced this myself and have found videos with bad audio a total turn-off and I never finish through with them no matter how short they are.

Way back in 2005, three young guys with a sense of humor came up with the brilliant idea for a central site for uploading and sharing homemade videos. Initially the intention was to create something away from the mainstream, a place for the regular people of the world to have their 30 seconds of fame.

Since then YouTube has become a behemoth of an entity with more than 14 billion videos viewed as of May 2010. Every facet of industry, religion, political ideology and age has discovered and used YouTube to convey a specific message.
