I started with YouTube videos back in February and found that I got Lackadaisical. This inspires me to start back up and implement some of the steps that you shared, especially since I’m still gaining subscribers. Great advice, thanks for sharing!!

I’m planning to buy the wii internet channel, but wondering if I can watch youtube videos on TV with the same quality I watch on my pc? I’m asking this, because I’ve heard that youtube does not work well on Wii, and you get frame cuts.

@ Melvin I think the price for the new membership mastermind program is justifiable. Yaro is great at providing great content that is easy to understand and I have no doubt that his new program will provide people with great information to build membership sites.

However, I don’t see the membership mastermind course as a beginner course. I too am just starting out and building a lists and audience by providing great content is my first focus. That’s where I think become a blogger fits in, and at the right price point for beginners.

Just my 5 cents ( because 2 cents Canadian isn’t much these days..lol)

Yaro, I like your style, and I was just thinking about using YouTube to drive traffic to my sites, since, I get very little(it drives me crazy!

However, Until I have sizable traffic, subscription and email lists, I don’t see the point of a membership site.

I’d truly like your coaching if I had a readership, but your costs for this coaching is prohibitive for me. This is very expensive for a short term course. Obviously, you’ve geared this for people who have disposable income and don’t live day to day. I wish you had some middle-ground, but obviously you’ve chosen your demographic.

Perhaps some day, some internet marketer will realize that making information available at a reasonable cost allows even the beginner to participate. Your Blogger Premium course was an example of that and Kudo’s to you for that. I hope you don’t continue on this never ending reach to make more and more profit to the detriment of your
audience. It seems, that you guys(interrnet marketers) are blind to the economy.

I do wish you the best in your select demographic
Melvin C. Long.

With Flash Video MX, you can add special effects, movie beginning and movie end, edit frame rate and audio effect, add multi-functional control bars to the generated Flash files, and even replace the original audio with your favorite music in the output Flash.

Marketing using youtube videos on your site really generates amazing results! It’s just that many people nowadays prefer to watch videos rather than read, read and read. Congratulations Fran on your blogging success…

I enjoy watching your video as well as the cars passing by lol

Well done Fran AND Yaro – I think its this type of practical advice and real testimonials like these that will make a real difference for me and other bloggers as we start integrating more video on our sites. Here is my blog:

Well done Fran on your video / blogging success, and good to see you guys recorded this video in one of our beautiful local Brisbane parks.

I will take up your tip about showing the URL constantly through the videos, instead of just at the beginning and at the end.

I would rather create an anime character of myself (as I’m a graphic designer) than being filmed and shown on youtube. My blog is in English but English isn’t my mother toungue, so I don’t feel confortable speaking in English while my pronounciation could be more funny than interesting for the viewer. And I don’t think that a movie with speaker would be usefull… I have to improve my English pronounciation…yet another challenge for me.

Great tip guys, especially the idea of using video to save time instead of spending hours of writing. I personally enjoyed it more than reading a long article.

Thanks!

Ryan, I was thinking the same thing. I think YouTube has a lot of potential – I guess it is like any niche though if you create the compelling content targeted at your audience then you will get more viewings.

Nice inputs on generating traffic with Youtube videos. I have never been too keen on trying this method of generating traffic because videos for Youtube means quite a bit of work with pretty much the same return as any other traffic generation method with lesser efforts. Having said that I would want to reconsider the entire thing again after seeing this video of yours.

Yaro,

great interview. I checked out her website and noticed that her subscribed box for her report looks similar to yours, is there a tool that does this or a plugin for wordpress?

The videos are really shaping up nicely for you. It is a nice change of pace from reading almost a three page post that you have been doing to watching/hearing this great videos. Looking forward to the next one.

That service doesn’t work on the new widescreen version YouTube videos, but it’s still pretty good for linking through to affiliate products.

This video was just a content video that teaches something, we weren’t trying to sell so I don’t really see the need to make it clickable.

By: Phil

Below is a good post that explains how to create a clickable link in a YouTube video. Yaro, why do you and Fran not reference this as it seems more effective than pointing to a link and having a non-clickable overlay? Is this technique white hat, and wont get your videos delisted?

Great tips from Fran Kerr, I have used youtube for one of my other websites, and I must say, it is a good pretty good source to get some extra traffic, although for me it would not be my #1 source.

I did get one take away from this, I need to spice up my channel page more as Fran suggests, to really “sell” yourself

Till then,

I couldn’t see the bird because my kids were crawling all over me. I’ve never made a YouTube video to drive traffic, although I’m sure it would be interesting having me sit there with my kids climbing up my back and hanging off my ponytail the entire time. I suppose you could always make a video of you talking with some sort of slide presentation instead of a video of yourself…
