ensure that you get more and more customers attracted to your !ebsite.

Guidelines n +arning Part Time $ncome Through YouTube

Online ideo is no! the hottest thing for market "romotion and is used to the fullest adantage.

Video sharing !ebsites hae become ery common on the Internet, but YouTube sure

sur"asses all of them in "o"ularity. It is no! used for business "romotion by "ractically eery

other marketer, in order to boost sales. Although, there are other im"ortant things like market

research, for !hich marketers can also use YouTube.

Market research is something you can successfully use to earn "art time income from home.

YouTube and other ideo sharing sites as !ell, offer you an easy, lo! cost !ay to find out !hat

ie!ers !ant, !hich is a good !ay to earn money. You can use the feedback you receie on

these !ebsites to earn money on the Internet. The easiest !ay to do this !ould be to do a bit of

key!ord research and then create a ideo to get feedback similar to !hat you do in a //9

cam"aign or for "age o"timi#ation.

YouTube search function !orkings are not much different than the search functions of search

engines in general. 4o!eer, YouTube search functions are much less so"histicated, as

com"ared to search engines, !hich use com"licated algorithms for their search functions,

meaning thereby that if you do some good key!ord research, you can dominate search results

in YouTube. In "ractical terms, this !ould mean that by using those key!ords in the title and tag

of your ideo, you also could be listed in the search results. This am"ly demonstrates the

necessity of "rior key!ord research. To ie! your ideo, "eo"le hae to find you first. And

unless they !atch your ideo, you cannot get any feedback.

Feedback from your ideos is an e$cellent and ine$"ensie method to gain an insight into your

target market. You are s"ared the efforts and e$"enses of conducting sureys and o"inion "olls.

You need to be "re"ared for the comment s"am, but there !ill also be ineitable re*uests for

more ideos. This is ideal for your "ur"ose. 4o!eer, don't oerlook negatie feedback and be

"ositie about it, as it can "roe to be ery im"ortant and hel"ful. 9omments !hich let you kno!

ho! interesting and5or hel"ful "eo"le find your content is e$actly !hat you need to kno! to

create the ne$t thing, as also to understand and identify needs of your niche market that hae to

be met. Make a s"readsheet to maintain a record of these comments. When there are re*uests

for an additional ideo !ith matching content, create the ideo and kee" a close !atch on the

res"onse it elicits.

This is one of the sim"lest forms of direct marketing i.e. making your "ros"ects let you kno!,

!hat e$actly they !ant from you. 8sually marketers hae to s"end huge sums of money, to find

this out by using YouTube intelligently. You can get your hands on this information ery easily
