Hello, today I want to talk about how to get more traffic on You Tube for Affiliate Marketing. I want to share what has worked and some things I'm going to improve on with YouTube.
My old YouTube channel I was in the health niche and it completely exploded. Millions of views and what worked was going after low competition keywords and backlinks.
I used to backlink the shit out of my videos and this helped them rank.
After Google's Penguin, Panda and other updates backlinks don't work as good as they used to. Too many backlinks from shaddy sites and it can hurt your rankings.
The only backlinking I do is to get more views such as I will tweet out my video, use it with Pinterest, Mix.com and maybe Tumblr or Quora.
Google really looks at a lot of different things when it comes to ranking videos. The one thing we can all agree on is keywords are still a huge factor.
I would argue that targetting the right keywords is the number 1 thing you have control over. That and of course how many videos you put out.
What I've been doing is going to Quora and finding out what people in my niche are asking then simply creating content around that. This is about as targeted as you can get.
You could go to Forums as well and just this idea a lone will give you an endless amount of content ideas.
Another thing to look at is the supply and demand of the keyword. One tip that I've been doing recently is I have been using tube buddy. It's a free browser extension.
If you put your keywords in Youtube it will tell you the keyword score it gives. You want good or very good. The keyword isn't too competitive and has enough search volume to make it worth targeting.
Another idea is to put the keyword in quotes in Google and see how many pages show up. This is your competition.
Now that you have your keyword, put it in the title, first sentence and last sentence
and in the first part of the tags.
When it comes to ranking Google wants the best user experience. They look at how long people are viewing your videos, or they clicking on your Thumbnail?
One big factor they do look at is engagement.
You want to do everything you can to get someone to leave a comment and of course you want to reply to there comment. This will help your videos get seen even more.
It's something I need to work on even more.
I used to say, Oh your comments are appreciated. Now, my strategy going forward is to just ask I easy question for someone to answer in the comments.
This will drive engagement and thus get it more views.
I hope these 2 tips can help you with your YouTube success.
My question for you is have you had success using YouTube, if so what is your number 1 tip. If have not used YouTube do you plan on ever using the platform for affiliate marketing?
Lastly, as affiliate marketers we make money promoting other people's services and products. I found something that has really helped me in the area. It makes promoting things very fun and I really think it can help you.
