Turning you current
news articles to video can increase your website traffic and it is very easy to do. Consider the fact that online video sites like Youtube are still expanding and over 150,000 online videos are submitted daily! More then 50,000 visitors watch online videos at Youtube.
It is important to get in on this action. The popularity of online videos is not going to go away. More and more people watch them every day so it is importation that you check out how simple it is to convert your newspaper article to video.
My article today is going to focus on a few tips that can get your newspaper article that you converted to video visited and watched by people on video sharing sites such as Veoh, Revver,Facebook, Sclipo, Vsocial, Metacafe, Youtube, Yahoo Video, and more.
Step-1 Make Your Videos Short 2 To 3 Minutes. Most of the video sharing sites allow videos over 3 minutes in length but from my past experience long videos over 3 minutes are not a good practice. And some social sites that accept videos, will only allow video lengths of 2 minutes.
My space is a good example, they will reject videos over 2 minutes in length. But lets be practical, I know I will not watch a long online video unless it really attracts my attention. 2 minutes is more then enough time to get your message out. If for example you are going to convert a new york times newspaper article to video and you know it is going to be longer then 2 minutes, release 2 videos instead part 1 and part 2.
Step-2 List Your Main Keyword Phrase As The First Word In Your Title. This Is A Very Important Tip. It is very important to list your main keyword phrase first in your title so Google knows exactly what your video is about. It is also important at the video sharing sites because potential online
video viewers are going to search for videos they are interested in using search terms just like on the search engines. For example if you converted a
news article to video about fishing using a specialized article to video converter software using the following title. "Night Fishing Crappie ,Special Report On Fishing For Crappie At Night" My main keyword phrase is "night fishing crappie"¯.
You also can get some keyword juice by adding second keyword phrase, in the example above , I used "Fishing For Crappie At Night¯ " Just do not use your main keyword phrase over again. Also, do not use keywords or keyword phrases that are not used in your video. You also should use the same main keyword phrase, and secondary keyword phrase again located somewhere in your video description
Step-3 Make sure your description has keyword rich content. Here again Google loves video but you need to direct them to the right place. You need to write your video description with keywords and keyword phrases that are included in your sunday times newspaper article video. Also you need to include the main and secondary keyword or keyword phases you used in your title when writing your description.
Step-4 Video Tags Are Very Important Do Not Overlook Them. Any of of the video sharing sites such as Howcast,Youtube, Vimeo,Photobucket ,Veoh,Vsocial,Dailymotion,Revver,Metacafe,Viddler,Yahoo video,Facebook,Myspace Videos,Sclipco, Vimeo to mention a few, use video tags for a search mechanism at their respective websites.
Make sure you list the same main key word phrase you used in your title and description in your video tags. Also list any single words that are descriptive of your on line newspaper to video. You should include at least 8 to 10 video tags.
Well folks We sincerely hope the information in our article about submitting your diligently crafted videos to video directories will help you when you are converting your newspaper article to video.
