Some video promotion steps


There are many ways to get you started seeding your videos. Along the way,
blogs, email blasts, even simple word of mouth, will be used. Ultimately,
you're going to want people all over the Web to know about your work, but
we want you to see how far you can go just by promoting your work on
YouTube itself before you start spreading that word. There is a lot of work to
do right there at first before you want to venture out all over the
neighborhood.


Start on YouTube


YouTube provides plenty of ways to promote the content to ensure it reaches
as many people as possible on the web. This part of the process is vitally
important, as every month, over 200 million unique users visit the site. It's
smart to optimize the visibility of your video right there.


Post frequently


It is essential to regularly post, particularly once you have started having a
subscriber base. Your goal is to have fans in pursuit of your future photo. If
you don't publish new work, the subscribers will ignore you and pass on to
more regular contributors.

keep your share of the space of mind of your fans! Comedian Asa Thibodaux

quick video formation. I'm producing three to four videos a week. "For
Michael, it's about" staying in touch with your friends, "so having videos
posted is the best way to do that.
