Boost Your SEO Efforts With YouTube!
YouTube certainly isn’t the only option for somewhere to stick your video once you’re ready for people to watch it, but it’s hard to turn away from the fact that YouTube is the second largest search engine in the world. That being said, there is some merit to hosting your videos there.
But how can hosting videos on YouTube help me with SEO? Well I am glad you asked!
The simple fact that you put your video up on YouTube won’t help you that much at all. OK, well maybe it will a little, but it’s how you optimize your video on YouTube that makes all the difference in the world. Let me explain. There are 3 major areas that YouTube uses to determine your ranking in the search results.
1. The text you use in your titles and descriptions
2. How many times your video has been viewed and how it is trending
3. How well (or poorly) your video is rated by viewers
