YouTube ‘tag’ tactic redirects significant traffic from popular videos to yours

by Jonathan on February 26, 2009 in Recent Episodes Video Traffic

3 minute TV program outlines a very simple way to redirect traffic from heavily viewed YouTube videos to your own videos. This is a valuable way to reach a niche market that is already gathered in one location.

Here’s the deal: Instead of wasting time attempting to create a hot new ‘viewer-attracting’ video, there’s a smarter way to attract some of the mass popularity of existing videos - with very little effort

The tactic is to put your own video on YouTube and place keyword tags alongside it that are identical to the ones that the ‘high viewer count’ video has used. The TV program shows the secret of how to do this and what happens. 

NOTE: It is important however to NOT use someone else’s brand name and identity. That would be scamming. Just use the relevant matching niche keywords.   We want to ride the wave, not steal it!

 Quite simply, when the highly popular video has finished playing, thumbnail pictures of other suggested videos appear, and yours is highly likely to appear there if you have identical niche keyword descriptor tags. You’ll also appear in the ‘related videos’ list.

The point is that a high percentage of viewers from the high view videos will then watch these suggested videos. (Yours)

You are surfing on the wave of another video’s viewing traffic, at no cost, with minimal effort, and without damaging that person’s video traffic or brand.

Hi, found this site through twitter so it shows that micro blogging works.
Really cool info on here. I must remember this domain because I want to start using video as a means of building a list. In fact I will sign up to your list now.

Jonathan,

I love the confidence you show in issuing a very effective, very potent traffic tip.
In a very simple, succinct manner.

Most “gurus” would use smoke and mirrors to make it seem more complicated than it is.

Brilliant work.
