In todays video, I will show you the top hosting sites that I use for free. Ill show you how is it possible to use free distribution services online like YouTube, Viddler and Tubemogul to schedule, launch and distribute videos to different networks that will also automate traffic for your blog posts.
In the next part of the series, Ill be showing you the affordable hosting services as well which can only cost you no more than 15cents per gigabyte of video. So join me as I take you through these solutions step by step.
Free Video Hosting Solutions:
1. YouTube
So the first thing I want to show you are the video sites that I currently use to host all my videos for the blog. So lets hop onto the first one that I want to show you here. The first one that you can see right here is YouTube and YouTube is a service that I use very, very highly to post all my videos up to 10 minutes long. Its a free service and as long as you abide by their terms and conditions, you can post literally anything that you want.
You can easily dominate your niche inside YouTube. What I found is YouTube has over millions and millions of people coming through so its a very highly searched video site and you can easily dominate with a lot of traffic in general, traffic back to your blog or subscribers or wherever you want to drive traffic so I highly recommend using YouTube.
2. Viddler
The second one that I recommend as well is Viddler. Viddler is an excellent site as well. Its a great site for people who need to post more than 10 minutes in their videos. YouTube has a restriction of 10 minutes unless youre a partner with YouTube and a lot of people find it very difficult to be able to get the partnership agreement applied or sent and setup with YouTube. So if you want to post for videos that are longer than 10 minutes long, Viddler is a great place to be able to set that up and you can use it to do pretty much the same thing on what you do with YouTube.
I usually post all my video interviews here or anything that requires me to explain something thats quite a lot more detail that requires more than 10 minutes. All right to speed it up and to get your video out into market much quicker,.
3. For quick one-click video distribution - TubeMogul
To distribute videos across numerous sites, I recommend free service called TubeMogul. What TubeMogul allows you to do is to post to YouTube, Blip.tv, Metacafe, all those video sites that are out there and it allows you to post it out to numerous networks giving you lots of backlinks back to your website.
Theres a really neat trick inside TubeMogul. It's that you can upload as many videos as you want but just dont publish them. Say for example, as Ive mentioned previously, I usually schedule all my video posts out probably around about the beginning of the month. So I might create 10 videos for the month and I have them uploaded onto TubeMogul but they dont get distributed or published online until the day that comes. It allows you to store your videos on there and what I get my virtual assistants to do is when the day does come out to distribute, I get them to launch it and send it off to the website then post onto the blog automatically for me.
Ive got five services that I post up my videos to: YouTube, DailyMotion, Yahoo, Metacafe and Blip.tv and these five services allow me just to automatically post it out to those video sites which are all free to do. But the beauty of doing this is that you post one video up to TubeMogul and it distributes to five multiple sites.
Also, the great thing is if you click on More Sites here, you can post to all these other video sites which are all free as well. So if you have all the usernames setup and so forth, you can post to all these video sites for free which is really powerful because what will happen is that your content will get distributed across multiple video sites. Furthermore, allowing incurring in more backlinks into your own video and increasing your search engine ranking as well.
Powerful Ways To Market Videos
So this is a powerful way to be able to increase your video distribution and also upload and host your videos for free all online. I hope that sharing this with you will give you an idea on how I go about using these free services to post onto my blog. All these are all streamlined to setup on my system for my virtual assistants to complete for me. In my next video, Ill be showing you exactly what hosting sites that are quite affordable and also cheap to use and you can check those out once I show you in the next video because Im pretty sure if you have some membership sites or have any videos that you dont want to post out to the public, these would be very, very good for you to use.
