Creative Indie Marketing- Top 15 places to Post Your Videos

Here's another Creative Indie Marketing tip. If you are making videos and you are only posting to Youtube, you are missing out on a lot more viewers than you think. The phrase “Never put all of your eggs in one basket,” fits perfectly when it comes to posting videos.


Yes Youtube is the most popular site, but it’s not the only site. So spread your video around to at least 15 different sites and increase how many viewers you market to.

Just as a company will air the same commercial spot on multiple TV channels, you have the opportunity to do the same with your videos. But yours are free advertising.

Here are the top 15 places to post your videos on the web.

Youtube
Daily Motion
Blip.tv
Videoegg
Jumpcut
GoogleVideo
Veoh
Eyespot
VideoJug
Vimeo
Viddler
Youare.tv
Revver
Howcast
Metacafe

Take advantage of every place to attract attention and post in multiple venues. RonSher Brooks Author of the book “5 Minutes 2 Show Time! How to Effectively Promote You!” Available at http://www.4creativeindiemarketing.com/

Google.com/talk has a feature that allows you to chat with customers on your website for free! By doing this you can warm up potential sales, calm the fears of internet purchases, and bring more clarity to your product.

To add this feature to your site you must first have a Google account. After you have one, go to www.google.com/talk and download the program to your computer. Next go to www.google.com/talk/service/badge/New to make your badge. To customize your badge click the edit button and write what you what it to say. You only have about 24 character spaces so be precise.

If you don’t want your email address showing you can change that to display your name or company rep as well. Save your changes and the program will generate a HTML code for you to copy and paste onto your website or blog.

Every time you log into your gmail account, your status will automatically update and your customers can chat with you. You will receive an alert on your desktop informing you of some one who wants to chat. You can even set a certain time for your customers to reach you. That way they will know when they can get in touch with you about your product.

Just think of how many things you’ve purchased all because you had your questions answered. This is one free marketing tool you can’t afford to ignore.
