This is a little guide I threw together after a few moments of pondering over some of the current blackhat video marketing techniques. In case you haven't heard of them, they include downloading and reuploading videos with url's to your blog/parked page/cpa offers in the description, or watermarked on the video. None of that is really too blackhat though, and neither is this method in fact I'm pretty sure this is something more professional bloggers would do than spammy blackhat kids. This method isn't new at all, but I'm sure some could find it useful.
1. Write a how-to article and post it on your blog. (You could just make a video from scratch and put that on your blog but that's not very smart)
Try posts like; how to decontaminate your toilet, how to stop old dogs from peeing everywhere, how to find a mate fast, or something similar (less stupid) to that.
Then of course you'll want to monetize your blog and blog posts with affiliate links and adsense to maximize your profits. The more traffic your video gets, the more clicks to your website, more profit ($$$) you make in a factual theory sort of sense.
2. Video tape yourself or you computer screen as you complete the task that you are teaching people about. For example... I would basically just video tape my screen as I read off of this article. You could get way more complicated than that though.
Popular softwares to use would be hypercam, camtasia, camstudio, or maybe fraps.
3. When you're finished with your video, open it in your video editing software. I usually just use windows movie maker, the video editing process is not very complicated.
4. If you want, and you haven't already than you can narrate your video now. I usually just read my articles as I go through the video in windows movie maker. Obviously you shouldn't read parts of the article that say things like, "click here to get a free ipod" since you can't give people links in videos. However, you can add annotations with urls, or add urls in the description of your videos.
5. Add the url of your website as a subtitle on your video. This way people will know where the video came from no matter how it is shared. You can include direct links to your website or blog post in the description of your video also.
6. Now is the crossroads between white and black hat. You could just let your videos sit there.. or do something worthwhile (I have no idea). Or you could go the black hat rout and just use software like Tube Automator to inrease the traffic to your videos.
Whatever you choose to do, this method could get you lot's of visitors, and a niche video channel that many people will subscribe to if you create informative videos. Good luck video-affiliate-marketers. - 15224
