The Power of Online Video for Small Businesses

Today, a local business not having an effective Commercial Video on YouTube is reminiscent of not having an ad in the yellow pages back  in the day!!

 Video results are becoming increasingly common in Google's search results. Your videos stand a much better chance than your text web pages site of being shown on the first results page. On the keywords for which Google offers video results: a video has about a 50 times better chance of appearing on the first page of results than any given text page in the index.

YouTube now has 2,600,000,000 daily visitors! YouTube has now surpassed Yahoo, AOL, Bing, etc to become the #2 search engine on the web behind Google.

There are hundreds of new articles stating just how effective videos are in helping local businesses.  Here are a few, and we will post more in our next blog.
