			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Lights,  camera,  action its time to let your inner actor or actress shine through. YouTube is more than just a funny video site. The website averages almost 20 million visitors per month. I&#8217;m sure that you can recognize the traffic generation potential of YouTube.</p>
<p>Marketing your product through videos made by you on <a href="http://www.youtube.com">YouTube </a>is one of the most effective ways of advertising your product to potential customers. Not sure how to get started, what to do? Stay tuned here are  7 Amazing YouTube tips that will get you started.</p>
<p><img class="size-full wp-image-202  alignright" title="Using Webcam and YouTube Tips" src="http://socialtrafficespionage.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/dreamstime_1584479.jpg" alt="dreamstime_1584479" width="234" height="222" /></p>
<p> <strong>1. Make Your Own Video</strong><br />
Yep that&#8217;s right make your own video&#8230; you don&#8217;t need to hire a professional. All you need to do is to make sure your videos are interesting and unique while allowing your personality or brand to shine through. Remember to put yourself in the viewers shoes and include things that you yourself would probably want to see. Don&#8217;t hesitate to inject some humour into the video. Be realistic you will probably have to do a couple of takes, don&#8217;t expect to get it perfect the first time.</p>
<p><strong>2. Keep it Short<br />
</strong>How short should a <a href="http://www.youtube.com">YouTube</a> video be? Recently we had the privelege of talking to Ross Goldberg aka Mr Traffic, Frank Sousa and Darren LeCroix. All of these Internet marketing experts agreed that a YouTube video should be precise in its content.  The viewer doesn&#8217;t want to know what you had for breakfast, they just want to know what you are giving them. As a guideline your video should be at least 2 minutes but less than 5 minutes.</p>
<p><strong>3.Have A Plan</strong><br />
Think about the audience you want to target. You might be tempted to copy the popular internet marketers, but try to resist since their style may not be your style. As Dr Phil says keep it real, <a href="http://www.youtube.com">YouTube</a> has millions of videos containing lots of different styles and niches. Take the time to create a draft script that contains what you want to say and how you want to say it. Practice a couple of times before you try to record the video. Saying the words out loud will tell you whether the collection of words you have chosen flow and make sense to the listener.</p>
<p><strong>4. YouTube Video SEO</strong><br />
OK so you have made the video now you need to promote it. We all know it&#8217;s no use having it on YouTube if nobody finds it. There is a reason why YouTube has tags, text decriptions and categories for each video that is uploaded. The only way most people are going to find your videos is by searching. This means the words you use for tags, descriptions and categorization are extremely important. They need to match the content of your video.and target the audience you want to attract. You need to make the text description for your video accurate and interesting. Its important to use descriptive keywords and also the language that people will use when they search for videos like yours.</p>
<p> <strong>5. One Video Is Not Enough</strong><br />
You might think that once you have made a video and uploaded it then jobs done. Think again! I am sure that you have been on YouTube and already know that the Internet Marketing Experts like Ross Goldberg and Micheal Chaney have a lot more than one video. The Internet Marketing Experts build a series of similar videos. For starters we recommend that you build at least 10 videos, and then add more videos on a regular basis. We know that 10 videos might seem a daunting task, just remember they dont have to be perfect and they only need to be 2 minutes in length.</p>
<p><strong>6.Go Viral</strong><br />
The ultimate prize for every internet marketer is to have their <a href="http://www.youtube.com">YouTube </a>videos go viral. Make no mistake this won&#8217;t just happen, you will need to take action and promote the videos. The best way to promote these videos is to use other Social Media sites such as twitter, Facebook, MySpace, blogs, and so on. But don&#8217;t panic it is really easy to post a youtube video on Social Media sites or at the very least to include a link. If you share your video with as many people as you can and they like it they will share it with others&#8230;.hey presto your videos go viral.</p>
<p><strong>7. Experiment To See What Works<br />
</strong>The Internet Marketing Experts are always testing and tweaking their campaigns. Make use of statistics to identity how many people visit your video, how may people visit your product and how many people purchase your product. Its important to create a number of campaigns and see what works. Its similar to a singer writing a number of songs before they find that elusive hit.</p>
<p>Now you know how, stop hesitating, start your  <a href="http://www.youtube.com">YouTube</a> internet marketing campaign today and get the FREE traffic you deserve.</p>
