Here are some strategies:

  2. Point the YouTube video to your blog article page and both the video and your blog article will receive more hits.
  3. Create a specific call to action (an offer) on your blog article inviting readers to contact you and/or request a product or service. Need help setting up your first YouTube channel and creating your first video? Contact davidsmith@marketingdepartmentlv.com
  4. Eblast a blog article teaser to your email list (i.e. If your article sets out 7 steps toward a goal, eblast step 1 to your list with a link to view the other 6 steps on your blog article). Need help setting up your first email list? Contact davidsmith@marketingdepartmentlv.com
  5. Divide your blog article into multiple social media posts that link back to your blog article. In the example above with “7 Steps” you immediately have 7 unique social media posts.

Okay, you’re wondering why you can’t just do these great strategies on your own website. Sure, you can. However, imagine the power of multiple NLV members sending more viewers to the NLV website where they are likely to look around and find YOUR content. This is the power of joint venture team marketing!

Embed Your Member Spotlight Video onto Your Website

You can actually grab video embed code from YouTube and make it so that the video plays on a page on your website! It’s pretty easy and here are the steps:

  1. Remember to show up for the Member Spotlight Video Streaming Session at 10:50am the day of your Member Spotlight Presentation
  2. By the next day you will be able to see your completed video on both the NLV YouTube Channel and on the Member Spotlight Video Streaming Session page on this site.
  3. Under your video you will see a “share” link. Click on this link.
  4. You will have choices: You can either copy the video address “Video Link” or copy the embed code.
  5. Copy the embed code. It looks something like this: src=”https://www.youtube.com/embed/JUYUgItY2PI?rel=0” width=”560″ height=”315″ frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen=”allowfullscreen”>
  6. Log into the admin area of your website, open the “edit” version of the page where you want your video to be posted, go to the “HTML” or “Text” view of that page. Copy the embed code into that “HTML” or “Text” view.
  7. Save the page on your website.
  8. Now go to the viewer’s side of your website (the public side) to see your video on that page! It will play exactly as if it were on YouTube…but right on your own website!!
  9. To see embedded videos in action, click on the Member Spotlight Videos page on this site!
  10. Hey, note the portion of the embed code above that I placed in bold? ?rel=0 If you add these few brief characters of code to your embed code YouTube will not send your video viewers to otherople’s videos when they are done viewing your video. They will only be sent to other videos on your own YouTube channel!!

Don’t let your videos lie hidden. Get them out where people can view them. Use them to add dynamic and motion to your business website. Grow your visibility and credibility in your marketplace!
