Are you aware of the fact that around 64% of internet traffic around the world is through videos? This number is also growing and is believed to reach 80% by 2019. Also, 85% of today's companies are including video marketing into their strategies. This is because videos can entice, engage and entertain above and beyond what text can. Additionally, viewers now know which platforms they should turn to if they are looking for something specific. For instance, those looking for music, gaming and tutorials will turn to YouTube. But Instagram Video is where people go if they want to learn about brands or see behind the scenes celebrity footage.

A main focus in video marketing and SEO is native uploading to Facebook. Facebook is visited by 1 billion individuals per day. Between them, they watch 4 billion videos daily. A lot of these views are counted because Facebook has autoplay (which can be turned off), but the views still count towards SEO. However, these views only count towards the popularity of your video if it is natively uploaded. When you use native upload, you also have the added benefit of being able to use Video Playlist and Featured Video features. The benefits of uploading to Facebook, clearly, are huge. Facebook has reported in their statistics that some 8,452 videos were uploaded natively in June 2015. These videos were viewed a total of 1 million times. It is also important for businesses to remember that YouTube is also a perfect platform. On YouTube, 1 million views were reached with just 5,919 videos in that same month. Hence, not as many videos are needed to reach an equal amount of people. Because of these discrepancies, video marketing and SEO are very much about having a presence across all platforms. This is why a video marketing and video SEO strategy should include a chosen method for sharing all video content on each of the different popular video sites.
The Different Kinds of YouTube ads
In broad terms there are two kinds of YouTube Ads: ‘skippable ads and non-skippable ads.’
Non-skippable ads are ads that force people to watch. They can only be 15-20 seconds long.
These kinds of ads get better engagement, but they also have a higher abandonment rate.
These ads also tend to get a bad rap because they seem forceful. But if your ads are good, and the ads are targeted effectively, they don’t need to represent trouble.
Skippable ads are also known as TrueView ads. These are ads that don’t force people to watch. These can be shown in two ways: ‘In-stream’ and ‘In-display.’
Now, YouTube doesn’t really say that there is a maximum length for TrueView video ads.
What they do provide, however, are some suggestions — especially for the In-stream ads.
51% of In-stream run for 15-30 seconds.
If you want to make your ads longer than this, you may want to keep your In-stream at around 3 minutes (as YouTube has suggested).
In-display ads don’t exactly have a suggested maximum run time. These ads can be used to take people directly to a YouTube video, so you can get away with them being long. 25% of videos watched on Tablets are 60 minutes plus,.
So if the video you want to advertise is long and of value — In-display may work best for you.
In any case,if you’re creating a YouTube ad from scratch, you might want to keep it short so that it is easy to create.
You don’t have to stick to the suggestions provided, though doing so, will reduce the chances of your ad being rejected.
You can also create a form of YouTube Ads called In-Display Ads. These are ads that are shown in the search listings, related videos section or as video overlays.
You’ll notice there that there is a box on the far right that mentions ‘On partner websites.’
Because we’re only advertising on the YouTube site, this option is not open to us.
In-display ads aren’t as invasive as the other types of ads that we’ve discussed so far. That doesn’t mean that they’re not any good, though, as they can still generate results for you campaigns.
YouTube is the 2nd biggest search engine in the world.
If it costs too much for you to advertise in the Google search listings, you can advertise in the YouTube search listings instead.
Relevance is important. 48% of US mobile users prefer seeing ads that are related to the content they are watching.
As these videos appeared to be relevant, a significant percentage of the people would find them in the listings, would click on them.
And then a percentage of those people would become subscribers, and a percentage of those would eventually become customers.
If you want to quickly find some popular keywords that are related to your offering, just do a search on YouTube.
