Is YouTube more beneficial than Google for generating traffic to your site?
This depends on what you are marketing. It is that simple.
If what you are marketing is already mainstream and viral in nature, then YouTube may be the ticket to success. But if it is the new version of Mangosteen juice, chances are that YouTube will not be as effective as keyword searches in Google.
You would not advertise a rock star in a gardening magazine, would you? Every product, service and business has certain ways to market that are best for them. It is our job as marketers to decide what is best for our "stuff", and test, test, test!
The great thing about YouTube and Google as a team is ..... YouTube videos tend to rank high in the results for the keywords targeted on your YouTube Description area. So really you are using BOTH.
Be sure to find the keyword you want to target before you post to YouTube. Or else you could end up in a saturated market and get over run. I personally use google to get my traffic, I am a little camera shy.....
However, I believe that you should strive for traffic from all sources possible, not just Google (even though it's a big player for traffic).
For example, there's a fairly new program available for video submission called Magic Video Marketing. With this tool .... if you're camera shy you don't need to capture yourself, but rather create slideshows and then record presentations over the top and submit that as a video.
Of course you can still do a regular video too.
The program then submits the video to over 35 video hubs automatically, then to blogs, then strips the audio out of the video and posts to podcast hubs.
So in essence you're not just using Google or Yahoo directly. You're going about getting listed highly in their hubs, but in a very indirect yet effective way through the savvy use of video marketing.
Hope this makes sense?
I can see the raw potential of a tool like this ..... submitting videos to many hubs at once for traffic generation. Does anyone else?
God Bless,
Michael

I started using Youtube several months back to generate leads and drive people to my websites.
I believe that this is a form of media (video) that is often over looked. Maybe it is over looked because people do not understand the power of video or they don't want to be on camera themselves
Well I myself was not the most technical person when I first started online or on Youtube. But I learned and picked it up. I was able to drive more than 40,000 people to my site in just a 3 months time from just using video
Now i don't just use youtube. I also you about 35-40 other social networking sites, blogs, and podcast ( pod cast have been great for me). If I had to load all of these videos up at once to each induvidual site it would take me all day and then some.
I now use a product that loads all my videos up at one time and blast them out for me. all i had to do was set my accounts up (which took about an hour) and now in 3 minutes time I have my videos all over the net increasing my exposure.
This is how I figured this in my head: 1 video blasted out to and avererage of 35-40 sites. Now if I do that just once a week with different videos I make that is anywhere from 300-400 videos on the net driving traffic.
I have even managed to get on the front page of google many times, sometimes withing a few hours. That is due mostly to my keyword descriptions however combined with all the exposure.
So Michael ,you are exactly right, the power of video is amazing and untapped
so good luck and start utilizing those cameras
to your abundance
