We’ve done quite a few changes to ArticleVideoRobot in the recent times, some which are visible on the interface and some on the backend which you may have experienced during the course of usage. One of the biggest improvement is the introduction of a new voice over character called “Heather” and she sounds so damn real. If you’ve used our earlier voice-overs then you may think I might be joking. Not really, atleast this time round. Go ahead and give our new voice-over a shot and you’ll see the differences yourself. JUST remember to clear your browser cache though to make sure you see Heather listed in the voice-over drop down list.

Demistifying the Advanced Editor – a quick primer
Sunday, November 28th, 2010Time and again, there have been numerous questions about the Advanced Editor, its usage and the integration with ArticleVideoRobot which warrants a full-blown user guide itself. This article however is an attempt to quickly introduce the Advanced Editor and provide essential resources that would get one up to speed to fully use it.
What is the Advanced Editor?
The Advanced Editor is a full-fledged flash editor developed by our subsidiary company Toufee. The Advanced Editor’s commercial name is Toufee as well. The Advanced Editor, as the name suggests is a comprehensive flash editor program that lets you customize the properties, effects and timings of every flash object to a high level of detail. The Advanced Editor comes with a truckload of effects, animated backgrounds, text styles, shapes and support for granular timing control that could help you tweak your ArticleVideoRobot to make sure you get the best of both worlds, i.e. the ease of use of ArticleVideoRobot to quickly create videos while using the Advanced Editor to add the finer details.
Behold though, the Advanced Editor is available only in the Business Account only. Ofcourse, it is a premium feature hence only available with the Business Account.
Opening a Video in Advanced Editor
You could open only existing ArticleVideoRobot videos in the Advanced Editor. What it means is that you cannot directly create a new video using the Advanced Editor – you need an existing ArticleVideoRobot video that you could work wit the Advanced Editor. To launch a AVR video in the Advanced Editor, follow the steps below:
- Login to your ArticleVideoRobot.com account
- Click on the Full AVR Editor button. This will open a new window. Click on Open Existing Projects button
- Select the flash video project and click Distribute this movie button
- In the following screen that opens up, click the Advanced Editor button.
An important point to note is that when an existing AVR video is opened in the Advanced Editor, a copy of the video is created. The Advanced Editor then works with this newly created copy. All changes that you make in the Advanced Editor are made to the copy of the video that was created when you opened the video in the Advanced Editor. Why is it designed that way? The Advanced Editor uses a different format and structure when compared with the regular ArticleVideoRobot wizards to store and work with videos. It is for this reason that a copy of the video is created the first time you edit a AVR video in the Advanced Editor. When you launch the Open Existing Projects, you will notice that ArticleVideoRobot appends the text (Advanced Version) to it.
Note: A word of caution – when you wish to open a video that is edited in the Advanced Editor, strictly follow the steps listed above. Do not click the Edit in Advanced Editor from the existing AVR video to open the video in the Advanced Editor – this overwrites any existing “Advanced Copy” of the same video and you risk losing your existing work done in the Advanced Editor for the selected video.
Previewing Advanced Editor videos
To preview a video that is edited with the Advanced Editor, you would have to use the Advanced Editor itself. Use the Movie -> Play option from the main menu or use the click blue eye-like button on the top right. This opens the preview window within.
How To Download Advanced Editor Videos
You would have to use the Advanced Editor again. Select Publish -> Export to YouTube (AVI, FLV, MOV) option from the main menu. Then click Add your movie to the queue button. You should then receive an email momentarily with the download link.
How Do You Distribute Advanced Editor Videos to Video Sites?
The next logical question, obviously. This is a two-phase process. You would have to first download the video using the Advanced Editor as described above. Once you have downloaded the video, you could use ArticleVideoRobot’s video submission wizard to submit the video to the video sites. The following KB article discusses this in detail:
http://www.webmarketingrobot.com/support/index.php?page=kb_view&id=45
More Resources on the Advanced Editor:
The buck doesn’t stop here. The Advanced Editor has numerous features that one could make use of. We have useful video tutorials on the Advanced Editor which can be accessed below:
http://www.toufee.com/support/index.php?page=tuts_view&id=12
http://www.toufee.com/support/index.php?page=tuts_view&id=4
I would also recommend that you go through the official Toufee blog that has useful how-to articles on most of the features that are available in Advanced Editor. You could access the blog from the following URL:
http://www.toufee.com/moviemaker/
I hope that the above information helps. Should you have any more questions, you may raise a ticket to Support Desk (http://www.articlevideorobot.com/support) and I’d be glad to assist.

How to Generate Traffic To Your YouTube Video Using Three Easy Steps
Friday, August 20th, 2010Getting traffic to your YouTube video is important to make sure your video marketing delivers the buck. YouTube is a great source for targeted traffic if you manage to create the right video that delievers the content as well as gets the viewer to click the link to your website and eventually generate sales. However, there are instances when you’ve created a video has very less hit rates. So how do you increase the video hits? Here are some quick tips.
Use Your Own Voice
Trust me, lending your own voice to the video adds the personal touch that can certainly deliver better results. The key to promoting a product via videos is to bring across the message on how your product or services could help make things easier or better for your customers. With your own voice-over on the video, share your personal experience of how the product or service helped you. Crack a joke if possible!
If Possible, Be On the Video:
If you could spare a good quality video camera, turn it on and be onthe video yourself. It couldn’t get any better to be on the video yourself. If you can do a live demo of your product or service, then don’t hesitate to dedicate most part of the video to the product demo. You can be rest assured the viewers will be glued to see how your product works. If you’re promoting a website, or a sofware or a web application, one could also use free online screen capture softwares like Screen Toaster, Screencast-o-Matic to instantly capture your screen and create a video out of it on the fly! Adding a few seconds of real customer experiences at the end of the video is a perfect way to wrap up a great quality video!
Email, Tweet and Digg
Once you have your video uploaded to YouTube, you can tickle the initial traffic from people who you already know. Just send out an email to your friend’s list – it shouldn’t take any time at all if you’re the kind that saves your contacts into groups. With just a single email, you could take your YouTube video to far many people you could possibly ever reach. With email sent, you should head straight to Tweeter and Tweet your YouTube video. Not to forget adding the YouTube video to your Facebook, MySpace and your Orkut profiles. Using social networking sites to market your videos could be termed push marketing where you latest updates are pushed to your viewers rather than you have to reach out. Finally, bookmark your video using powerful bookmarking tools such as Digg, StumbleUpon, del.icio.us. They hardly take any time but the results can be overwhelming and many times could well generate quality traffic and lots of backlinks!

ArticleReel: Configuring ArticleReel Sidebar Settings
Monday, August 9th, 2010In part one of the article, we introduced the basic concepts of ArticleReel and how it could be used to improve traffic to your website. In this second part, we look at how to customize the ArticleReel SideBar as well as the Rebuild option which one could use to recreate the ArticleReel cache. So let’s get started right away.
What is the ArticleReel SideBar?
The ArticleReel SideBar is the panel that is displayed on the right of all ArticleReel pages. Being a SideBar, it naturally suits Flash vertical banner ads, Google AdSense ads, custom tracking code or even have a list of hyperlinks that you wish to have displayed in your ArticleReel video blog all time. Very quickly, below are quick steps on how to configure your ArticleReel SideBar:
1) Make sure you’re logged into your ArticleVideoRobot account.
2) Navigate to the URL http://www.articlevideorobot.com/videomarketing/articlereel.html?step=8.
This will launch the Configure Advanced Features page.
3) Now, click the SideBar / AdSense Settings button. The Configure AdSense Settings window opens.
4) Enter the AdSense HTML code and click Update SideBar Content
Thats it, you’ve configured your SideBar. The content that is updated in the Sidebar, i.e. Google AdSense code or your custom HTML code will start to show up within 24-48 hours in the SideBar.
Rebuilding your ArticleReel
Just to give you some background, when you host ArticleReel on your own server, ArticleReel creates a temporary cache folder called ar_cache. The first time ArticleReel is launched from your domain, ArticleReel stores a copy of all the videos, images in the ar_cache folder. Next time on, ArticleReel will load the flash videos, images and the associated HTML/CSS files from the cache (hosted locally on your server) rather than having to load the data from ArticleVideoRobot servers. However, when you update your flash movie or make changes to your SideBar and when you do not see the changes in your ArticleReel website, you would need to refresh your cache, i.e. delete all existing files and have ArticleReel load the videos from our server. This process is called rebuilding ArticleReel.
To rebuild ArticleReel, one has to simply pass on the rebuild parameter to the ArticleReel URL. For example, if your website address is http://www.yourwebsitename.com/videoblog/ then the you would use the following URL to rebuild:
http://www.yourwebsitename.com/videoblog/?rebuild
It might take a couple of minutes to rebuild and your ArticleReel would then load your latest ArticleReel website.

Video Marketing Tip: Getting Started Guide to Create your Video Blog and generate huge traffic and backlinks
Wednesday, August 4th, 2010Hey guys, hope you’re doing well. This is one important post that I had wanted to do long back. As many of you have already been using ArticleReel in your website or in your blogs for quite some time now, there are so many questions from our customers which I will try to cover in this post.
What is ArticleReel?
If you’re maintaining a blog of your videos yourself, you would know the mundane tasks of putting the HTML code for each and every video and tweaking them to make sure that it fit your posts. If you’re that type that uses the New One Click Ezine Wizard, which takes only seconds to create a video out of your article and thus end up creating hundreds of video articles, then it is a daunting task if you plan to put all those videos in your website or blog. ArticleReel is a real game changer. ArticleReel is your ready-to-use video blog that is generated automatically from your ArticleVideoRobot videos. You no longer have to put the HTML code of each video, ArticleReel takes care of it. As soon as you create a new video in your ArticleVideoRobot account, a new video blog entry is created in ArticleReel. Very quickly, here is a live demo of how an ArticleReel video blog looks like http://articlereel.com/?go=85. ArticleReel is a full-featured video blog equipped with interactive features such as comments, direct publishing to social bookmarking/networking sites using the Gigya widget while offering an easy to navigate gallery of your ArticleVideoRobot videos. ArticleReel video blog provides RSS feeds as well as is fully compliant with Google Sitemaps ensuring that all your updates are picked up by Google which is valuable if you are serious about SEO and search rankings.
Why ArticleReel?
Why do you do need a video blog such as ArticleReel? For one, its saves huge amount of time (if you’re used to maintaining your own video blog) and makes all your ArticleVideoRobot videos organized and easy to access from anywhere. You don’t have to remember the entire URL of your video article; simply open your ArticleReel site and naviagate to your desired video. Second, ArticleReel is a full-featured video blog – blog equals content, content which is latest and thus keep your website updated and current. Video blog is a double scorer – its your interactive ArticleVideoRobot video + your content delivered as a rich interactive blog-style website.

When you reach this page, please be patient as the wizard starts creating your video blog from the videos in your ArticleVideoRobot account.

Uploading ArticleReel to your website

Video Marketing Tips: Optimizing YouTube Videos to Improve Video Hits
Friday, July 30th, 2010Video marketing is at its peak at the moment and the interest just seems mind-blowing at the interest being generated by the viewers and the search engines alike. Video is a great way to engage users about your product or service but also provide valuable sneak-peak or product demos that can go a long way in improving the likelihood of a sale. In this short article, we take a step back and review the fundamentals of what goes into making your video marketing successful.
Myth – Shorter videos rank better
How many times have you come across video marketing sites and forums recommend that the ideal length of the video is 2 or 3 minutes. With a two-minute YouTube video, one could hardly provide the viewer any useful information. When people look for informative videos on YouTube, it is natural for a person to prefer a video that has a longer playing time as it is obvious that the video would have more information. As a YouTube user myself, if I am looking for a video on say “Tips for effective Video Marketing”, I would generally look for videos that run atleast for 5-6 minutes (many times I prefer YouTube videos that run 10 minutes) as I know I am getting a better idea on the subject than a 2-minute quick pick.
Use Pictures
In a recent study, it has been found that the video thumbnail is very critical and is a major driver behind video hit rates as viewers are more likely to click on a video whose thumbnail looks intriguing and appeal to the viewers based on the content they’re searching for. So how could you make your ArticleVideoRobot videos more engaging? Use Pictures. ArticleVideoRobot provides you the option to add picture to every slide. When we say pictures, we don’t only limit to images of your product, but also charts (to represent data), symbols or flow diagrams or decision trees that consume the content that is being displayed. YouTube automatically generates thumbnail of the video taken from the frame that is at the mid-point if the video, so if your video is 5mins long, then the thumbnail is the frame that is displayed at 02:30mins. ArticleVideoRobot provides the Headin with One Picture and the Heading wwith Two Picture paragraph styles.
Focus on Content, use Watermarked Backgrounds
We’ve seen many users drive many marketing messages into their videos thus translating to additional frames when the article is converted to video. This increases the video length sans providing any useful information. When you publish a video about your product or service in YouTube, it is understood that it is video marketing so it is recommend to focus on content than devote extra “marketing” sentences about your company on the video itself. Well, hang on, you still have quite a few unused area in the video – how do you leverage it? Use watermarked backgrounds, i.e., engloss your company or product logo on the right-hand corner of your flash video. This is very effective as the watermarked logo or tagline would constantly remind viewers about your product or service. Just in case you’re looking for me, ArticleVideoRobot provides the option to show a business logo on the initial screen which should more than suffice.

Tips to generating instant traffic through simple video submissions tweaks
Wednesday, April 21st, 2010Its been a while since I made a blog post on something that every one of us likes most, and that is generating traffic! Well, its been quite a work to come up with new techniques to improve traffic to your website using ArticleVideoRobot’s integrated one-click video creation, video submission features and the popular ArticleReel engine. And after trying various techniques, it never hit my mind about something that I always recommend to our customers but almost forgot to write about. The technique is simple – to copy and paste your entire article (yes your full article), into the Description section of the YouTube. But hold on, the video submission wizard posts a limitation of 250 characters in the Description field so how do you paste the entire article? The answer, though stupid, is to edit the video manually (once its published to YouTube , Metacafe, DailyMotion, etc) and update the article in the Description field. Well, before I get into answering your whys, let me dive into the good things (and possibly great benefits) of putting your entire article into the Description field of your YouTube or Metacafe video.
Firstly, you get to help Google have a lot of keywords that it could associate your video with. Because you have your entire article right there on the video description, you make matters easy for Google to associate search keywords/patterns to your YouTube, Metacafe or DailyMotion video (or any of the15 video sites supported by our VideoSubmitRobot). Remember that people are using more long-keyword searches which means that users are not simply entering just keywords to search in Google but instead searching entire sentences. For example, it is very common now to find people search Google using sentences like How to improve website traffic using video marketing (this definitely isn’t two or three keywords but an entire sentence!). Also remember that Google gives weigthage to repeated occurances of the search phrase (or keyword or sentence, however you’d like to call) on the same page when compared to a single occurance. What this means is that posting the entire article in your video description results firstly in a rich set of keywords that Google could use to associate your video but most importantly, Google finds far many sentences(because its the entire article and not just a simple description) that is related in context to the search keyword or phrase which results in very high rankings in Google search results. Ideally, this translates to high visibility for your videos and naturally increased viewership. This directly translates into increased views for your video which inversely increases YouTube own internal association of your video (since your video enjoys high viewership and is thus ranked popular by YouTube) with a number of related keywords and phrases.
I can hear your abuses already and you have valid questions – why on earth would you use ArticleVideoRobot’s automated video submission service only to end up editing the description field manually? Excellent question, but I wish the video submission API allowed us more space (the number of characters/words that is). Considering the double-effect of Google and YouTube rankings, keyword search associations and viewerships that one could leverage by simply pasting your article content in the video description, I guess its worth a deal to edit it manually. But we are not trying to escape the fact that our Description field is far limited in the amount of words it can hold at the moment. You can be sure we are trying to get this improved!

Boost your video marketing traffic using enhanced voice-over features
Tuesday, April 6th, 2010When video marketing is your priority, then ArticleVideoRobot provides the perfect tools you need to turn your video marketing campaign into a success story. At ArticleVideoRobot we strive to build the best tools for video marketing on the Internet which leads us to constantly innovate and introduce new features to ensure you get maximum leverage out of your video marketing efforts. An important aspect of video marketing is to have a voice-over on the background which would read out key points in the video to ensure that the audience stay engaged. While ArticleVideoRobot already supports 12 voice-overs, we have done a major overhaul of the voice-over engine to make sure that your voice-overs sound better, clearer and add value to the video. If you would launch the Voice Libray now, you would notice the new options almost instantly:
The new features to the VoiceOver engine one would immediately recognize are the options to adjust the Speed and the Pitch of the built-in voices. To increase the rate at which the voice-over reads the text, simply select an appropriate value from the dropdown list.
The pitch of the voice-over, or the rate of vibration in the voice is particularly useful when you wish to lower the robotic tone in the voice. We’ve heard from customers that some voices sound robotic. Increasing the pitch of the voice (to Higher or Highest values) would lower the robotic tone. By increasing the speed of the voice and increasing the Pitch value, one could subsequently improve the voice-over quality and lower traces of robotic sound.
Also, clicking the B icon on the VoiceOver window increases the emphasis of the voice-over on the particular text. Use it when you want to put across important text in your video. One instance where you might want to use the emphasis feature is on the closing slides where you put across key points or the summary of the entire video
Build your own pronunciation vocabulary
Most often we’ve come across instances when the voiceover does not pronounce the word correctly. This happens on complicated words such as medical, scientific or engineering terms, names of people or persons and acronyms (such as FSMO which is actually pronounced as fizzmo). With the new feature, you could build a library of pronunciations which AVR replaces everytime it encounters the term on any of your flash video. This option could be launched by clicking the book-like icon on the Voice Library window.
One could also associate a pronunciation with a particular voice. This could be useful during instances when a particular voice-over does not prononunce the word properly (this is because we purchase the voice-overs from a third-party vendor and sometimes the pronunciations are not the same or better doesn’t sound the same across the voice-overs). By associating the corrections with individual voice-over, you make sure it doesn’t affect other voice-overs that pronounce the word correctly.
Record over phone:
Another new feature is the option to record your voice-over through phone. One might wonder why would we need this since there already is an option that to record the voice via the microphone option.
The Record over phone could actually prove handy in instances where you have someone else lending the voice for your video. You could ask the other person to dail into (513) 428 9972, enter the 5-digit passcode and then start recording their voice. Upon hang up, you would simply have to click the Import Message. The voice recording would be instantly added to the paragraph for which the recording window was open.

How to increase traffic to your website using ArticleVideoRobot’s video SEO features
Tuesday, March 16th, 2010We keep getting queries as to how to generate traffic to their website and to their YouTube videos and increase the video hits. Well, Rome is not built in a day, and generating traffic requires some work but thanks to ArticleVideoRobot, you could build up serious traffic to your videos without having to sweat much. Here is how:
Use Dynasubmit to generate hundreds of videos in minutes
Let’s say you have just a single video article. You post the video to YouTube, the chances of your video generating traffic is very low when compared to millions of videos that are posted every day. But ArticleVideoRobot’s Dynasubmit does the magic by turning your single video into hundreds of unqiue videos thereby hugely increasing the chances of traffic to your videos. How? Let’s say you want to submit a video named Online Forum Marketing with 3 different titles to three video sites. You fire up ArticleVideoRobot’s video submission wizard, and select the Use Dynasubmit feature. In the Dynsubmit Video page you would select the first video site, say YouTube and then enter the first title/description pair for YouTube. You would then select Metacafe and then enter second title/description pair to Metacafe. You would then select the third video site, say DailyMotion and enter the third title. Once done, you would click Next. After you submit the video in the first cycle, you would have submitted the video to YouTube, Metacafe and DailyMotion but with a different title. To make sure all 3 titles are present on all 3 video sites, you would have to do two more cycles (i.e. repeat the video submission wizard), then on the second time you would post the second title/description combination to YouTube, third combination to Metacafe, and first combination to DailyMotion, third combination to Yahoo Videos, etc. So on the third or the last cycle, you would have all the 3 different tile/description pair posted on all the 3 videos. Consider if you could come up with 10 different video titles (for your single video) and post it to 10 video sites which means you would have ended with 10 titles x 10 sites = 100 video postings just out of a single video!
Use One-Click Wizard to keep ArticleReel up to date
We know that ArticleReel keeps working in the background to generate traffic to your website and keep it on top of Google Rankings. However, as I had mentioned in many of my earlier posts, Google loves updated content. Googles loves ArticleReel too because ArticleReel implements what is called Google XML Sitemaps, which Googles uses to index your website and ArticleReel pages. Now, when there is a new content in your ArticleReel site, Google would automatically know because ArticleReel implements Google XML Sitemaps. But how do you keep your ArticleReel page up to date? By creating new videos ofcourse. But it could be quite taxing to create new content every other day. That is where the New One Click Ezine Wizard comes into the fore. With the New One Click Ezine Wizard you could create any article to video in seconds. So even if you have only a couple of articles, you could simply re-use the existing articles, make simple changes to your content, launch the Ezine Article Converter wizard (the New One Click Ezine Wizard that is), select the Other Website option and simply paste your article in the wizard after making the changes (change the Article Title, Article Body, etc) and finish the wizard to dish out a new article. What this means is that when you create a new video article, it is automatically updated in your ArticleReel website/page, which means the Google XML Sitemap is also updated triggering the Google robot to re-index your ArticleReel website. Now, this is something Gooogle loves to do and Google would happily re-index many times a day if you keep your ArticleReel pages up to date by creating new videos. Assuming you manage to create three videos every day (which should take say only a few minutes altogether), you keep Google busy which is very important as Google ranks websites that it indexes many times a day on top of the rankings compared to websites that it indexes few days once.
Digg it, Tweet it – let the world know
Social bookmarking is a powerful tool when it comes to any form of internet marketing and that which is not utilized to the core. Publish your video to bookmarking sites like Digg, Delicious, Tweeter, StumbleUpon and see your video hit rates go over the roof within a couple of days.With ArticleReel’s integrated publish features, you could easily publish/post your videos to 230 social bookmarking and networking sites. Simply open any ArticleReel video, navigate to the bottom of the page, and click the icon (shown below) to open the integrated publish options. Select the site you wish to publish to and you’re done!
Social bookmarking is a powerful channel that can get you targeted and quality audience that could directly translate into immediate sales. Even if you would post to just 10% sites of the 230 sites, you’re easily publishing your video to 23 sites which by any means a large number of sites. And remember that there are other bookmarking and indexing sites that get updates from Digg, StumbleUpon which means your video would go places without any effort from your end.
Hope the topics discussed were useful. I will discuss more techniques in the upcoming posts that would explore ways to generate more traffic as always
