Wanna know how to make money on youtube? Can you
make a simple video?… If yes, then you can make money using youtube.
Making money on youtube comes down to videos and somehow getting your
video(s) to rank well. If you can somehow put this two together (youtube
& video) in a way that it can benefit a person, a business or a
site, then you can easily make money with you tube. Luckily, you don’t
have to come up with any ideas on your own. Here is a straight forward
step by step method that you can use to make money on
youtube.
This method is all about going local, though when you master this
method you can take it to the next level and go national as well. But if
you wanna get your share of youtube money quickly, focus on your local
area. Usually ranking locally for a keyword is much easier, and that is
why this method works best with local businesses. We will use YouTube
videos to rank well for the keyword since YouTube videos are hot and
rank easily for their keywords. Here is what you need to do to make
money with youtube:
Find a local Business
The first step of making money with youtube is to find a local business.
It doesn’t matter what kind of business, it could be a restaurant, car
repair shop, hair salon, bar, thrift store or whatever. But, this method
works best with businesses that can be best presented visually. For
this guide lets assume you choose a local bar.
Make a video of the business
Go to the bar owner and tell him or her that you would make a free
advertising video for the bar and upload it on YouTube, which will help
him gain more business, IF he lets you shoot a short video of his bar.
Most local businesses will have no problem with that. In fact they will
be happy to let you advertise their business for free.
Take your camcorder and shoot a short video of the bar and what its
all about. Be creative, you want to make it as interesting as possible.
Maybe ask the owner about any special event they may have, like a
karaoke night or free beer for ladies night or what have you and plan to
shoot your video that night to capture how people are having fun and
are happy and blah blah blah. Remember, you want to make people want to
come to this place.
But what if you don’t have a camcorder or cant shoot a video for some
reason? No worries, you can simply take a few photographs of the bar
and the crowd. Capture what you can about this place in a few pictures.
Keep it simple and short.
Make a slide show
Use a free tool like Animoto to turn your photos into a professional
video slide show. You can also use this tool to enhance your video (if
you were able to shoot video) and make it more professional. you can add
music, headlines and etc. This free tool lets you crate professional
looking slide shows easily. You don’t have to be a geek to work with
this thing.
Important: Don’t forget to place your name, website, phone number or
any other info in the beginning and at the end of the video, This is how
people can find you if they want a similar video made for their
business. This is how you will be making your money!
Upload your video to YouTube
Now, take your video/slide show and upload it to YouTube. After all, the
question was how to make money on youtube! To get the most out of your
youtube video, use rich keywords that describes the video, like local
bars in Chicago, best local bar in Chicago, bar in Chicago,…
Next, write a very descriptive summary of the bar and what it is all
about. Simply write a review of the bar and link to the bar’s website,
twitter page, Facebook Page and etc. Most businesses have a website and a
page on most big social networking sites these days. If your targeted
bar doesn’t have it, you just found another opportunity to make some
money, offer to create a simple website or Facebook fan page or what
have you. But that requires another article. Lets focus back on what we
were doing.
Build a few backlinks to your video
Just like many other money making methods that are promoted online,
making money with youtube require a little bit of link building. Though,
in most cases you don’t have to do much. As I said, ranking locally is
pretty easy. So, your video with good keywords and description will
likely rank high for its keywords. But, to be on the safe side, you can
build a few backlinks to the video to help it rank higher. All you have
to do is write a few articles related to bars and include a link
pointing back to your video (of course with your keyword as anchor text)
and submit to a few top article directories. You can also upload your
video to other video sites as well.
Competitors keep an eye on each other
This is all based on one very important fact, competitors always keep an
eye on each other. So, pretty soon your video will be seen by other
local bars. And as any sane competitor would want to do, they would want
to be the one on that video. That’s where your business info in the
beginning and at the end of your video comes to play.
You have got clients
Prepare to receive calls from local bars wanting to pay you to make a
video for them to help them promote their business. It really is that
simple. Don’t make it complicated for yourself, Just do it. You can
always add things to it and make changes here and there. You will learn
as you go along. The important thing is to get started.
Remember, you don’t have to limit yourself to bars, you can use this
method for any other local business, as long as you can make a video of
it and put it on youtube. This is a method I used and still use myself. I
work as a flooring installer offline and have my own business. I used
this method myself and soon I was getting calls from other floor
installers who wanted me to do the same for them (they didn’t know I was
also the owner of the company being advertised in the video, lol).
Again, I just want emphasize on keeping it simple. Its all about
taking action. This can be a real simple way to make money selling your
online video marketing services. Now you know how to make money
on Youtube.
