Has anyone tried putting a video on youtube yet? I love watching some of the stuff on there, but I haven't even had a camcorder for that long, so I'm not a video wizz on there?

Have any of you used it? What type of video did you put on - did you do anything to promote your business? What type of videos do you watch on there? We usually choose anything that looks like it's going to be amusing. It's quite addictive isn't it.

Hi Catherinel,

Youtube is a great place to promote your business.

I've used it because I love videos. One of my videos has more than 20 000 views, that's good and drive traffic to my site.

You can use a camcorder and make a video, you talking about your business, about what you offer and the benefits of your product. Three minutes are enough.

There are many ways to make videos and put on Youtube.

Twenty thousand views is amazing. I am going to try it, once I've worked out how to get the sound to work on the camcorder!

Promoting through You Tube is a great technique. I often see it, but i didn't practice yet.

I find this thread amazing.

Not being an early teenager, I've never been to You Tube, and, hopefully will never have to suffer what must be a nauseating experience.

How does hordes of 13 year old girls being driven to your website improve your business?

I would have thought that anyone that wanted to be taken seriously about business would never even admit that they'd been to You Tube.

That also goes for Squidoo, My Space and all the other teenager sites.

Bye for now.
