Frequently Asked Questions About Video SEO

How do you optimize a video?

In addition to basic Video SEO techniques like using a relevant keyword in the video title and writing an optimized video description, you can add a transcript, include relevant call-to-actions in the video and description, add links to your website within the description, and place the video in the proper category. We also like to think more outside the box and focus on the user from the moment we start planning a video to the moment when it is officially optimized and published. What is the purpose of the video? What will it help the viewer achieve? What is the action we want the viewer to take next? How will the video be promoted?

Is video good for SEO?

Yes. There are many studies proving the value of videos in a range of industries. For example, video thumbnails in Google search results can double your search traffic. When thinking about the value of video SEO remember that search engines are big on content. Good quality content (including video) drives powerful SEO.

How does video affect SEO?

Did you know that Google’s algorithms have a propensity for good quality content? We see more and more that Google is prone to give priority ranking to websites with video content. Video also contributes to several key ranking factors: click-through-rate (visitors are more likely to click on a page with a video snippet), bounce rate (visitors are less likely to bounce off a page with video), and dwell time (visitors are more likely to spend longer on a page with video). Videos are also exciting and can naturally attract good backlinks to your website, which helps with SEO.

What is video marketing strategy?

Video marketing strategy includes several aspects including audience definition, campaign goals, messaging, budgeting, video optimization, testing, promotion, and more.
