How to use ArticleReel to generate backlinks, increase website traffic and improve Google rankings

Saturday, January 23rd, 2010

One of ArticleVideoRobot’s biggest feature launch till date is ArticleReel. What is it anyway? ArticleReel is a new tool that will generate hundreds of quality backlinks, and increase traffic to your website many fold. Well, you may wonder that you have many tools that claim to generate “instant” backlinks so whats the catch? As always, ArticleVideoRobot brings in unique and powerful technology built on years of internet experience. ArticleReel is unique because it starts working to build backlinks to your website and it does on its own, day in and day out as long as you have ArticleReel hosted on your website. All you would need to do is spend a few mins to set it up and its your ticket to boosting website traffic and to seeing your website rated in Google rankings. And all this for free!

Why ArticleReel?

ArticleReel works in the background and keeps generating backlinks to your website through its unique technology. The regular SEO tools/services do “optimize” your website to be SEO friendly and this does work, but only for a while. Why? Search engines like Google are getting more smarter by the day and track websites not only based on its keywords but factor in a number of other points such as content quality, frequency of content updates, number of backlinks, weightage of backlinks, etc.  to name a few. This again is not set on stone – Google keeps improving its search algorithms to make sure the rankings are accurate as possible which means your website needs to be tuned to match up with the expectations of the search engines to make sure you’re always in Google rankings. This is where ArticleReel steps into the picture – ArticleReel is that someone who could keep your website SEO optimized, keep generating backlinks to your website, keep improving (and sustaining) the Google traffic rankings and make sure you’re website is indexed for the maximum possible keyword searches every other day!

How does ArticleReel work?

ArticleReel incorporates sophisticated technology with the years of marketing experience that puts your internet marketing on auto-pilot leaving you to concentrate on your core function. When you create an ArticleReel website, ArticleReel automatically creates backlinks between ArticleReel sites that fall into the same category. So for example if you have installed ArticleReel on your website http://www.articlevideorobot.com and there is another ArticleReel website named http://www.toufee.com and if the two websites fall in the same category, then the two websites would start exchanging backlinks automatically. That is not all. If http://www.toufee.com is already exchanging backlinks with other ArticleReel websites, then http://www.articlevideorobot.com would start exchange with “sites” that link to http://www.toufee.com as well.

Hang on, don’t think that ArticleReel is just another link exchange – absolutely not! What I’ve mentioned is just one of the ways in which ArticleReel increases backlinks. ArticleReel is a full featured video blog that is automatically updated as you add new ArticleVideoRobot videos. This means that the content on your website is updated regularly which keeps search engines like Google busy and your website is always on the hot list.  On every ArticleReel video page, you get your entire article posted which means you don’t have to worry about keyword optimization since you have the entire article for Google to index. This is a double-advantage since ArticleReel not only sets up a video blog, but you now also have all your text articles posted along with it searching as a great repository and that which serves as rich content for Google to index. How does this translate into generating traffic to your website? Because your ArticleReel is set up on your website, and because you have your articles setup in your ArticleReel, Google indexes your website URL (let say http://www.articlevideorobot.com) every time it indexes your article,  Google associates your website URL with top keywords that it indexes your articles for. In addition, ArticleReel generates only quality backlinks, has its own alogirthm to determine the weightage of the backlinks so you could be rest assured that your website gets quality sites linking back to your website.

How do I get started with ArticleReel?

Setting up ArticleReel is pretty simple. I would first recommend that you have a look at this video that provides a quick walkthrough:

Once you ready to go ahead, setting up ArticleReel shouldn’t take you more than a few minutes using the ArticleReel wizard.

Alternatively, you could go navigate to the below URL directly after you login to your ArticleVideoRobot account.

The ArticleReel is a self-explanatory wizard and you should be able to find your way without much problem. Also, you would just have to spend a few minutes to allow the ArticleReel wizard to convert your ArticleVideoRobot video into ArticleReel’s format.


Time to get started!

I doubt if you would be reading this line as I am sure you would have already launched the ArticleReel wizard and started getting your videos ArticleReel-ed. The clock starts now and let ArticleReel take care of generating traffic to your website. Time to go ahead and grab a hot coffee :)

Video article marketing tip: How to use YouTube keyword tags to generate traffic to your videos

Friday, November 27th, 2009

One of the many questions that we receive at support is how to make my video get listed in top search results amidst hundreds or possibly thousands of similar videos on YouTube. Getting top rankings on YouTube certainly involves a lot of work, but what we’ll cover here are some smart ways to ensure that your video gets maximum visiblity in YouTube and thereby increasing the chances of improving the your website traffic.

Firstly, let me re-inforce the fact that YouTube likes fresh content, so make sure the first time you post the videos, its absolutely perfect – in terms of the right keyword combination, that the Video Title is keyword-optimized, and the Video Description has your website URL and all the right keywords properly woven with the keywords that you’re targetting. Let’s look at each of them in more detail.

Leverage the YouTube Tags

YouTube (and all the other video sites currently supported by ArticleVideoRobot) provide you the Tags field that could provide great results if effectively used. So let’s say one creates a video about making money with Twitter, we’ve seen most of our customers use only four or five keywords at the maximum. For example, more often than not, it would be “How to make Money with Twitter”, “Twitter Money Making tips”, “Make Money Online with Twitter”, “Online Money Making Tips”, etc. However, when you submit tags that has spaces, most of the video sites (and that includes YouTube too) split the tags into individual keywords. So in the case of a tag such as “Make Money with Twitter”, the video sites would split it into three individual keywords namely, “Make”, “Money” and “Twitter”. Well, this is something that you might not want though it might still work. What you might want is your video being associated with more targeted search phrases, so when someone searches YouTube for the phrase “How to make money online with Twitter”, your video gets listed in the top search results. For this, we’d need to use something multi-word keyword tags. With mult-word tag, we’d be combining the keywords with an underscore (_) symbol such that  the new tag (after using multi-word keywords) would look something like “Make_Money_Twitter” which YouTube and the video sites would treat as a single tag and not break them up into separate words. To achieve best results, you would use a combination of multi-word tags along with your regular tags for every video that you submit to YouTube which means that you would use both the tags “Make Money with Twitter” and “Make_Money_Twitter” in the same video. Also, make sure you’re to use descriptive multi-word tags, such “Online_Money_Making_Tips_with_Twitter” as there are chances of the tags directly matching the search phrases when compared to regular space delimited keyword tags (e.g. “make money Twitter”).

Conclusion

The bottomline is to use a combination of multi-word and space delimited tags to ensure maximum visibility. Remember to use descriptive keyword tags as these greatly improve the chances of matching search phrases. Where possible, use a mix of popular keywords as well as niche ones so that your video is associated with all possible search patterns. When effectively used, tags can improve traffic to your videos giving the much needed impetus to your marketing.

Monday, November 16th, 2009

It is an exciting time at ArticleVideoRobot as we have planned a number of major changes to the popular article video converter and distribution software. The first of the changes lined up is the new Members Area. The new Members Area includes an improved dashboard that sums up your account information better. You’ll notice the regular options Full Article to Video Editor and the New One Click Ezine Wizard now more organised under Start a New Article to Video Project. You would also notice that you’d see that all your most recent projects under the Recent Projects section. Note that you might not see all your video projects – not to panic, I’ll show how to access all existing projects later in the article.

MembersArea1-1

Let me first introduce some of the new changes. The most important of them is that the Members Area now lists the AVR (Video Download) and the VSR (Video Submissions) credits. A number of our customers have lots of confusion over the credits. Note that you get two sets of credits with your membership every month.

The Members Area would also now list your Account Level on the top left. The Members Area also now has the new Follow us on Twitter link if you wish to follow ArticleVideoRobot on Twitter. Just below the Follow us on Twitterlink is a quick preview of the latest blog article with the the blog title and a short description of the article.

One of the new features of the Your Recent Projects section, is the quick preview box that shows a quick description of the article along with important options which include Preview This Project that opens the Quick Preview window, Download/Distribute that opens the Select Publishing Options screen from where you could choose to download or distribute the video as well as the Edit this Project that opens the video in the Full AVR Wizard.

MembersArea2-1

Staying on with the Members Area, you’ll notice a new tab called Projects that will list all your recent projects. The difference is that the Projects tab lists all the video articles with the detailed preview and all of the options. However, one of the immediate question one might notice is where have all the existing projects gone? Here is how you access your existing video projects

  1. In the new Members Area, click Start Full Editor button available under the Full Article to Video Editor option. This would open the ArticleVideoRobot wizard
  2. Click the Open Existing Projects button. The wizard will list all your videos
  3. Select a video and on the right panel you’ll see the buttons Edit Selected movie and Distribute selected movie. Click Edit Selected movie option to open the video. If you would like to distribute the video, select Distribute selected movie

Notice the flashy bar on the top that says Return to Article Video Robot’s old Member’s Area. Click this if you wish to switch over to the old Members Area. Clicking on the close icon (the cross sign on the bar) removes this bar permanently, but just in case you wish to switch over to the old Members Area page, simply navigate to the following URL http://www.articlevideorobot.com/members/home.pl and you should be right there.

Hope this helps. Should you have any questions, please raise a ticket to Support Desk (http://www.articlevideorobot.com/support) and we’ll be glad to assist.

See you all in my next post,

How to publish your video to your blog to improve traffic rankings

Friday, November 6th, 2009

ArticleVideoRobot allows you to easily publish your video to your blogs or your website using a simple one-click feature. With the new One-Click Article to Video Converter you could easily convert your articles to videos in a matter of seconds. You could also publish the video to your blog or websites with the same ease and speed. This end-to-end integration allows your website or blog to be update with video content which search engines love to index. Google, for instance, rank websites or blogs that publish frequent content, far higher than those websites/blogs that do it at a lesser interval.

To publish your video to your website or blog, follow the steps below:

  1. Login to your AVR account. Under Open Existing Projects section, click on the Distribute link found below your flash video article
  2. On the Select Publising Options page , click Add to Web/MySpace button
  3. The Publish Online window will open up. Copy the HTML code and paste it into your website or blog

ArticleVideoRobot flash videos have a scaling of 640×430, the default HD-quality size. However, when you publish your video to blogs, you’ll generally have to reduce the size or you would notice the flash video being cut off on the right side. To fix the issue, you’ll have to reduce the scaling of your ArticleVideoRobot flash video by using the iScale parameter. Below is a modified version of the HTML code that will publish your video at 60% scaling.

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://www.articlevideorobot.com/movies/player.swf" style="width: 384px; height: 249px;" height="249" width="384">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.articlevideorobot.com/movies/player.swf">
<param name="quality" value="high">
<param name="scale" value="noscale">
<param name="salign" value="lt">
<param name="wmode" value="transparent">
<param name="flashvars" value="userID=<USER_ID>&projID=<INTERNAL_PROJECT_NAME>&iScale=60&domain=www.articlevideorobot.com">
</object>

Note that you will have to replace the variables and the with your AVR User ID (its a numerical value, and not your login ID) and the name of the project that you provided when you saved the video. Refer the following KB article that shows how you could find your USER_ID and INTERNAL_PROJECT_NAME.

http://www.webmarketingrobot.com/support/index.php?page=kb_view&id=59

The following are the changes made to the HTML code

  1. Add a new attribute named iScale and set its value (note its a percentage) to the size that you want to scale the flash video. In the above code, the iScale attribute is set to 60 which means that your flash video would be scaled to 60% of its original size (the original height and width parameters are 640 pixels and 430 pixels respectively)
  2. Change the height and width according to the new scale. In the above code, I set the width to 384 (60% of 640) and height to 249 (60% of 430) respectively. Note that the original width and height are 640 and 430 pixels

The values are not absolute, which means that you could scale the flash video to 70% or 75% and adjust the height and width parameters accordingly.

Video article marketing tip: Improve traffic to your videos and generate instant backlinks

Wednesday, November 4th, 2009

The key to a successful video marketing campaign with AritcleVideoRobot lies with leveraging the power of Dynasubmit and I’ll share some tips that should drastically improve traffic to your video articles. Let’s begin by taking a scenario – you wish to publish a video to YouTube that talks about how you could earn money with Twitter. Assuming you compiled a great video with perfect content and images you might be still left in the crowd having just a single video out there on YouTube when there could be possibly hundreds of similar videos targeting the same niche. To ensure your videos get returned on YouTube search results, you would have to do the following

  1. Prepare a list of keyword-rich titles for your video: This the key concept of Dynasubmit. That you could use a single video with different titles and submit it in an instant to video sites. For example, for the video article that shows how to make money with Twitter, you could have various titles such as “How to Use Twitter to Make Money”, “Make Money Online With Twitter”, “Top Twitter Money Making Tips”,  “Online Money Making Secrets with Twitter”, etc
  2. Prepare a list of related keywords that relate to the niche you’re targeting: It is important that you capture as many keywords as possible associated with your target niche/audience. Once you’ve worked out the list, use the keywords with each variation of your video instance.
  3. Now for the real action. Use Dynasubmit to post as many variations of the video as possible.  Let’s say there are 100 videos in YouTube that target the segment “money making with Twitter” and assuming that you post at the least 10 variations of the same video (using different video titles), your videos would make up 9% of all videos on YouTube that target the niche. The share of your videos would significantly increase if you could work up more video titles – you could go anywhere between 15-20%  of overall share of videos pertaining to a niche. And assuming you have associated all the keyword combinations with all your videos that you posted, your videos would easily be returned on any search made on YouTube and that directly translates into traffic to your video.

This is not all. So far we’ve looked only at YouTube but to really treble your video traffic you would simply have to repeat the same on all the 15 videos sites supported by ArticleVideoRobot such as Metacafe, Yahoo Videos, DailyMotion, etc. With the minimum assumption that you managed to build 10 variations of the video (i.e. changing the video titles ofcourse), you could easily end up with 150 video postings (10 video titles x 15 video sites) across all the video sites. Going by the numbers that is certainly a lot of videos considering that we worked this all up just from a single video! All we try to do is change the video title and use Dynasubmit to let the video be posted to the video sites.

Let’s cook some backlinks

Alright, you are ready to churn out 150 videos all across the Internet just out of  a single video but do remember to include your website URL in the Video Description field which is the secret to generating huge backlinks to your website. Refer step 4 (screenshot) of the following article that shows the Video Description field in which you should enter your website URL:

http://www.articlevideorobot.com/blog/how-to-submit-your-video-article-to-youtube-using-videosubmitrobot.html

When search engines index your video, they also your hyperlink (i.e. your website URL) and this would mean valuable SEO optimization since search engine would associate a higher ranking to your URL as it comes from popular video sites. When you include the fact that your website URL would be instantly available on hundreds of your videos across the Internet in a matter of a single video.

To make sure you get backlinks, you would have to include your website URL in the Video Description section when you post the video to video sites. I checked your video and while I did find that you entered a description, I see that you had not entered the website URL in the description section. Refer step 4 (screenshot) of the following article that shows the Video Description field in which you should enter your website URL:
