Is Video Marketing Effective Link Building Strategy?

[MyNet]

Is video marketing an effective link building strategy-has anyone had any luck with it?  By video marketing I mean using a video distribution service like TubeMogul to atuo distribute videos to many different video sites, and including a link to my website in the Video Title section.

It is my opinion that video marketing is somewhat ahead of its time, and not worth putting a ton of time, money, or effort into at this point. That includes a service like Tubemogul that ultimately spams social media and video sites with you video.

Unless your video is unique enough to become popular, touching or funny enough to become viral, I would only produce videos that would be relevant for my website/blog and visitors.
