Can you rank your youtube video #1 on the charts? Well, I can, right from the start. Take a look at this example right here — it doesn’t have much going for it, but it managed to get into a position on the first page of listings, and with a little more work, it could go all the way up the chart!
What is SEO Video?
It’s not actually worth it to squeeze every last bit of juice out of the pulp, so at a certain point, where there’s a definite diminishing return, meaning the effort doesn’t produce enough result, I give it up and let it sail on the high seas of youtube, and hopefully it will garner its fair share of viewers.

What you’re trying to do is to create a video that people will want to watch, and at the same time, you’re trying to influence them toward your product or service, so don’t forget that little formative fact as you blunder around looking for eye-candy and spicy ad copy.
You want your ad copy to be very flamboyant, very attractive and mostly intriguing, which could mean asking a question or implying something weird is about to happen, such as, “Have You Ever Wondered What Would Happen If You Pushed This Button While Driving?” — this is a sure-fire listing, and it will get more than its share of hits, but not as much as a video of someone crapping out on camera.

Negative stuff will always beat out the positive stuff, but don’t give in to that crap — you really don’t need the numbers. Out of a couple of hundred hits, maybe half a dozen will go further and click through on the hot link to your website, but most won’t, and if your video goes viral and you happen to see a million hits on it, probably NONE of them will result in a click-through, so forget the million-hits-on-my-website pipe dream, it ain’t gonna happen.
But, well, on the other hand, it could.
That’s the thing. There’s no way to predict a viral video — you never know what’s going to hit big, but one thing you DO know — it’ll be a baby, a dog, a cat, a horse or an unusual personal accident or failure — failure? Why, that’s a “fail”, but from the distant past, the twentieth century.

What do you mean, you’ve never heard of the twentieth century? It was in all the papers. There are even books about it. It really happened, honest it did. I was there.
So there are literally THOUSANDS of videos up on my youtube channels, about 4,000 of them, and slowly but surely, I’m baiting the hooks that dangle.
You see, they’re up there now without any identifiers — they were meant for you to see, and we didn’t take anyone else out there into our calculations, so we didn’t energize the videos with tags and such, and hardly bothered with a title, so for outsiders, there was no way to find them.

Things like “gorby eats some food” or “we take a drive” — these are not likely to inspire, and the chances that anyone will be entering those particular search terms into the search bar are very small indeed.
That’s the whole thing — try to imagine someone on the other end typing in a search term — it can’t be too personal, something that only your Mom might know, and it can’t be something that you made up but never told anyone about. The search term must be common enough to take in some territory, but not so huge that your video is buried in the mound of resulting thumbnails.
The thing is, you’ve got to find that delicate balance point between the Meridians of Generic on the one side and Specific on the other — there is a bridge between them and a common thread connects them, yet they exist apart.

Therein lies the rub, as I mentioned before — you need to research, to find out what configurations might exist for this subject, but among the higher search numbers.
So you’ll enter the search term in the search bar on youtube, then you’ll refine the search by asking for the results by the numbers, meaning views, of course.
Okay, now you scan down the page for things that might adhere to your video, that might be suitable and sensible and reasonable and RELEVANT.
It doesn’t hurt to have a video that includes involvement, some form of entanglement with the client and the video host, so what would that be like? It’s entirely up to you to develop your very own brand and style with which to carry out this marketing scheme.
Go for it, and remember that efficiency and effectiveness are the two fundamentals here. Good luck, and you can measure your success by two signs — one, the number of hits you get on your video, which you can see pictured in the “analysis” section of your video.
Please note that the sculpture armature has gotten over 100,000 views, and recently that number has shot right up there once again!
The other sign of success involves your clients actually hitting the hot link and going to your web page and buying something there. By golly, there is no better sign of success in this planetary configuration, that’s for sure. Money talks.
Okay, that’s plenty to get you started, but don’t forget to do your LLC practice today — go to my ejgoldguru youtube channel page, press the “videos” button, then “sort by” OLDEST.
Now go down the list and watch them all, comment on them all, and SHARE them all!
This is a small task that you can do. Keep in mind that ALL the videos you see with new graphics and sharpened barbs, meaning tags, metatags and hashtags were done by me in the past four days, and like the song says, I work alone.
Not really. You can apprentice just by asking. Anybody wanna buy a painted vintage clothing store with all the merchandise for at least a year, plus instruction on how to make them and supplies for producing hundreds!
See You At The Top!!!
