List building via YouTube

YouTube is just as effective as Facebook and Twitter for your list building project. Since we all know the importance of backlinks in increasing page rank, backlinks can also drive more targeted traffic to your site, providing more revenue opportunities.

Aside from Facebook and Twitter, YouTube is also a great site to build links to your site. All you need to do is create a video. Make it look as professional as you can. You can make use of free software and licensed music. Another option is to buy inexpensive software for a more professional quality video. Still, if you don’t know how to create a video, there are outsourcing sites that can help you make one for a low price. A good example is Scriptlance.

If you have been using YouTube for a while, you already know that you can create your own channel there. For your site, you can simply create a brand channel. You can modify your channel and change the font, theme or you can even upload a background image like the products you sell. You can also display a banner above the info box of all your video pages. The best thing about YouTube channels is that you can customize them for branding purposes. You can have a connection box icon, a channel sidebar image, a brand image, and even a channel bar.

After finishing your channel and setting up the videos, you can invite other YouTubers with channels to your channel. You can also check other channels and participate in the comments. You can respond to the comments of others. Doing so can help people get interested in browsing your channel and subscribing to it. Posting comments is also as easy as posting comments on a blog. Just answer the questions or give your thoughts on certain topics.

You can also share your videos. However, instead of getting the link to your video, you can take the embed codes and share them on your site. This will help your visitors watch the video without asking them to leave your site. Most people also don’t like to click on links because they are afraid of catching some kind of virus that could harm their computers. They would gladly hit the play button though.

You will be surprised by the number of people who have found success in their list building project through YouTube. Even the real estate market seems to have benefited a lot from this site. With the backlinks that you can place in your video summary, you can generate more potential subscribers for your site.
