What is one of the most popular marketing tools to get your website noticed? 

Well designed video marketing can be a very effective way to market yourself and your business online. The operative phrase is ‘well designed’- an engaging informative video posted on the web can form part of an effective marketing campaign, while a rushed effort can be counterproductive.  We have put together some guidelines which will assist you to create the right video for you, which will increase your business success:

 

  • Titles that tantalise visitors and viewers: Take some time to develop the right title because that is what people see first. Use words that will create interest and encourage people to watch it and pay attention. Alternative approaches to the subject matter will make people curious and they won’t be able to resist the video and will receive your well planned message.

 

  • Provide the best quality video possible.  Aim at the best visual quality and acquire the services of the most competent amateurs if you do not have the skill or experience. It’s not necessary to spend too much money  - a moderate budget will ensure that your video looks professional. Make sure that the lighting is good and that there are no distractions to take the focus off of you while you deliver an effective marketing message.  The viewer must want to take action after watching your video.  

 

  • Keep the communication simple.  Avoid confusing or misleading messages. The  theme should be echo your overall marketing message for your business, products and / or services. Your viewers should be left with a clear picture of what you are trying to communicate about how your business will satisfy their needs. Try to get objective feedback from a group of viewers before going live with your video. 

 

  • Limit the length of the video. You will appeal to the viewers who are easily distracted, if you deliver the message in under 3 minutes. When writing the script and planning the visual impact, keep in mind that the aim is to keep short and punchy. Always try to get feedback from people who are likely to be your target audience and make the changes before the video appears on line. That way your marketing budget will be spent wisely and your objectives will be achieved

 

  • Repeat the your website address as often as possible. Firstly, it needs to be clearly visible when the video starts and then you should repeat the address a number of times during the video. Repetition works in advertising and marketing.  Your viewers should know where to go to get to your website and to obtain the product or service that you are informing them about.

 

By creating a video using the guidelines provided, you will be able to market your website effectively. Traffic and sales will increase dramatically and your business will grow. Not only are videos popular, but they can be exceptionally effective communication vehicles if put together well.
