10 steps to using viral video as a traffic generator for your blog or website

Posted June 10th, 2009 by automatedblogpostingsoftware

One of the most effective means of traffic generation today involves the use of video. Video has become extremely popular recently and google (and other search engines) have jumped on the bandwagon by ranking video highly.

Here is a simple method to create a potentially huge network of interlinking sites all pointing to your website or blog

Step 1: Create a video about the topic of your website. It doesn’t have to be high quality. A video of yourself talking filmed on a digital camera is quite adequate.

Step 2: Visit tubemogul.com and create a free membership if you don’t already have one.Use tubemogul to submit your video to youtube, viddler, google video etc. If you’re not a member of these sites you may need to become one. Don’t forget to label your videos with your chosen keywords

Step 3: Visit the video sharing sites where you video has been submitted and collect the permanent link to your video.

Step 4: Submit those links to social bookmarking sites via socialmarker. Once again, if you are not a member of the bookmarking sites you may need to become one. It’s free to do and once it’s done you don’t need to worry about it again (It’s helpful to use the same login ID and password for all of them but keep it different to the details of secure sites like paypal etc)

Step 5: Submit your profile page on video sharing sites to social bookmarking sites via socialmarker.

Step 6: Create profile pages on facebook, myspace, hubpages, squidoo, mylot etc and post your video links there. Include a link to your website if possible. If you can’t but you can add graphics then create a graphics file containing your domain name and insert it on your page (or use as wallpaper)

Step 7: Submit those profile pages to social bookmarking sites.

Step 8: Create a blog if you don’t already have one. Publish posts containing or pointing to your videos, video sharing site profile pages, profile pages on facebook, myspace, hubpages, squidoo, mylot etc

Step 9: YOU GOT IT!!! Submit those posts to social bookmarking sites

Step 10: Submit your blog rss feeds to squidoo, hubpages etc.

Doing this creates a large network of interlinking sites. In time your videos will dominate page one of google for your chosen keywords (as long as you have used your keywords in your links to them where possible)

So basically… the process involves repeatedly:

  1. Creating
  2. Linking
  3. Bookmarking

Helpful Links:

Tubemogul
Socialmarker
Facebook
MySpace
Squidoo
hubpages
Mylot

    I’ve heard of traffic geyser but was trying to show how to do it for free. Traffic geyser is a paid service. It’s probably more effective but for someone with a low or no budget TubeMogul is the way to go.
