Video SEO

[Paul_Tovey]

Hello All!

I'm wondering about the best way to link build and carry on my video trend.

I love to create video's with all of my articles as I feel it adds an extra element to just boring old text! The problem is that my current 25 links from Youtube are all NoFollow. This didn't originally bother me, but it's starting too.

Is there a couple of websites that I could upload my article/ video to and gain a  link from in a similar manner? Come to think of it, is this a good SEO tactic to use?

Hi Paul,

Video SEO totally fascinates me so I did a boat load of research and compiled it here: http://www.danatanseo.com/2012/09/creating-video-seo-strategy-is-hard-but.html  Also, one of the best and brightest experts in Video SEO just posted a brand new post to SEOMoz just 2-3 days ago. I make reference to Phil's earlier blog post in my article, but here's a link to his post too: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/building-a-video-seo-strategy

Everything you need to know about video SEO is there. I highly recommend Phil Nottingham and Paddy Moogan's posts.

Good luck!

Dana

Great answers as always Dana, thanks you for the links. Your blogs are fantastic!

You are very welcome Paul and thanks for the compliment. I am working on another post, but am torn where to post it, my own blog or YouMoz. In YouMoz they get more exposure, but my own blog is desperate for new content, lol...We'll see I guess.

Let me know what you decide, 3rd part vs. YouTube. I'm interested to know what you experience.
