Components Of A Great YouTube Video

December 23, 2013 by Marc Guberti Leave a Comment

YouTube Video Tips

YouTube videos are constantly getting uploaded and published. In fact, over 100 hours worth of videos gets published on YouTube every minute. However, not all YouTube videos are created equal. There are components that go into making a quality YouTube video.

The first component of a great YouTube video is an intro. You can’t assume that everyone in the world knows about you (even if you’re one of those power users with a million subscribers). Quickly tell people who you are and where else they can find you on the web.

After the intro, you need to tell your viewers what you are going to talk about or do in the video. I either directly tell people what I am going to talk about or quickly lead to it. The title of your video should be about what you are talking about or doing in the video. People need to know and be reminded about what you are going to do.

After you tell your viewers what it presented in the video, you need to do a good job at presenting. Highlight all of the key points of your speech, taste test all of the foods you said you would taste test, and do anything else that you said you would do.

Another component towards making your YouTube video great is with an added bonus. The added bonus can be almost anything. At the end of the video, you can include a coupon for one your product. You can also provide a teaser for your next video or have two videos in one.

There are over 100 hours of videos published on YouTube every minute. In order to have your videos stand out, you need to implement these components so you create great YouTube videos. After you create a great YouTube video, all you need to do is get more views for that YouTube video.

How To Get Interviewees

December 22, 2013 by Marc Guberti 4 Comments

 

By interviewing people, you will be able to establish yourself as an expert. Finding the people to interview is the challenging part, until now. People say yes to interviews very often. In fact, 90% of the time, people say yes to get interviewed. All you have to do is find the people who want to get interviewed. Here’s how:

  1. Create a list of the people you want to interview. Make sure these are also people your subscribers and followers want to hear from. These people should be recognized experts of your niche.
  2. Contact them on social networks or via email. Ask them if they would like to be interviewed and tell them what you want to interview them about. You need to have clarity in order to get the fastest response and more people who say yes.
  3. Find a way to do the interview. I use Google+ Hangouts to host my interviews. Google+ Hangouts are free and reliable, and here’s why you need to use them.
  4. Get started! Keep on finding people who you want to interview and keep on repeating this process. By doing a good job with the first interview, the person is bound to come back for a second interview.

All of these interviews will allow you and your guest to get more visibility. People are impressed because you interviewed an expert. In addition, people get to learn more about the person you interview.

How To Use Day By Day Planning To Increase Your Productivity

December 22, 2013 by Marc Guberti 2 Comments

Day by day planning is a big concept in my book, 365 Ways To Improve Your Business In 2014. By planning out your weeks and months day by day, you will have a very clear vision about what needs to get accomplished and when.

I started implementing a day by day plan, and I have gotten more accomplished than ever before. I am writing more blog posts and giving myself more time than ever before to write those blog posts. I have been able to do more YouTube videos in a day than I usually do in a month. I have also learned more about my niche by reading numerous books and blog posts.

The day by day plan is one that involves some uncomfort on your part. The goals worth accomplishing and doing the work for are the ones that involve some uncomfort in order to accomplish them. You may have to work an extra hour every day in order to get your goals accomplished.

Having a day by day action plan will give yourself the commitment you need to accomplish your goals. When I write goals in my notebook, I do everything I can to get those goals accomplished. Writing down goals is like giving your signature which is like giving your word. The day by day plan has motivated me to do a lot of the things that I do now.

Try out the day by day plan. The day by day plan has changed the way I accomplish my goals, and it can help you too.

The Niche Stampede

December 21, 2013 by Marc Guberti Leave a Comment

The competition is looking for the pattern that works. Lower prices may be the pattern. Quality with a temporary coupon may be the pattern. No matter what the pattern is, the competition is looking for the pattern that works.

When the pattern that works is found, most of the competition learns about it. The result is a stampede of competitors trying to implement the pattern and have the pattern work for them. The pattern will work for the competitors, but it will work differently for different people. Some of the competitors will be able to get results similar to the person who found the pattern. Others will end up with something that works, but the results won’t be as good.

In order to lead the stampede, you need to be different from the competition while implementing the pattern that works. That is how you will be able to stand out and ultimately lead the stampede.

10 Ways To Get More Blog Traffic

December 21, 2013 by Marc Guberti 2 Comments

Get More Blog Traffic

Getting traffic is essential towards the success of any blog. You need people to see your blog in order to get more sales, more subscribers, and more visibility. For all new bloggers, getting traffic is a challenge. There are some blogs right now that have been around for a long time but still aren’t getting a lot of traffic. Some bloggers want to go from 100 visitors every day to 1,000 visitors every day and keep on growing. Regardless of where your blog stands, here are 10 ways to get more blog traffic.

  1. Post regularly and consistently. Writing 2 blog posts every day increased my traffic by 50%. Before that, I only wrote 1 blog post every day.
  2. Utilize SEO in your blogging strategy. There are a lot of things that you need to know about SEO. Here are two articles that will help you increase your blog’s SEO.
  3. Share your blog posts on your social networks. Your audience of followers won’t know about your blog until you tell them about it.
  4. Guest post on other blogs. Guest blogging will allow you to establish yourself as a quality writer. When people see you as a quality writer, they will visit your blog. In addition, writing the guest post gives your blog an extra backlink if you include it in the guest post or in your bio for the guest blog.
  5. Talk about your blog posts on YouTube. People will be able to see you and hear your voice as you describe your blog post. At the end of the video, you should promote your blog by telling others about it or having your blog’s URL on display.
  6. Answer questions on Yahoo! Answers And Wiki Answers. You can establish yourself as an expert of your niche, and you can add a link to your blog at the end of the answer.
  7. Use Help A Reporter Out. Help A Reporter Out (HARO) is one of the ways to get people to write about you. As more people write about you, you will get more backlinks and visibility.
  8. Have a product. You can use your product to promote your blog or have coupons that are exclusive to your visitors (which will encourage more people to join your blog). Having a product will also establish yourself as an expert.
  9. Include a link to your blog in your email signature. The people you email could be your friends, clients, or other people who you happen to know. They would be interested if you showed them your blog.
  10. Add social sharing buttons to your blog. This will allow your visitors to share your blog posts on their social networks, and this will result in an increase in traffic.

What are your tips for increasing traffic to a blog? Which of these tips was your favorite?

7 Successful Facebook Contest Ideas

December 20, 2013 by Marc Guberti 5 Comments

Contests are great ways to get more engagement on Facebook. In order to get the maximum engagement, your contest needs to be successful. There are numerous contests on Facebook, but only a few of them become successful. In order to have a successful Facebook contest, you need to come up with the right idea in order to get more engagement for your contest. Here are 7 different ideas that will allow you to make your Facebook contests successful:

  1. Ask your fans to like a post, and then one of the people who liked that post wins the prize.
  2. Ask your fans a question about your Facebook page, blog, book, or anything else you can think of. The first person who answers wins the prize.
  3. Make the prize be one of your products. Training courses are easy and free to create on Udemy. You can also give them to people for free with 100% coupons that are easy to create. If you are an author, you can have your signed book as the prize.
  4. Anyone who writes a post mentioning your Facebook Page gets a chance to win the prize. Give your fans an extra submission for each additional time they write a post about your Facebook Page.
  5. If your fans subscribe to your blog, give them two extra submissions to the giveaway. Everyone participating in a contest strives to increase the odds. By telling people to subscribe to your blog, your email list will grow. If you promote your Facebook Page on your blog, you will get even more engagement.
  6. Over deliver to your fans. Thank your fans for making the contest special by saying something like this, “I was only going to give one [Fill in the blank] away, but since a lot of people became a part of this contest, I am going to give three [Fill in the blank] instead!
  7. Tell people to stay tuned for more contests. Some of your fans may have just been there for the contest. By telling your fans to stay tuned, the people who came for the contest will continue to be your fans. By the time your new contest comes, the people who initially came to be a part of your first contest like what is on your Facebook Page.

Facebook contests will lead to more engagement, but in order to get the best results from your contest, you need to implement one or more of these ideas into your Facebook contest strategy.
