Video SEO Advantages
Video SEO is 53 times more likely to produce a first-page search
result than traditional techniques.
Google is pushing video to the top of search results, creating a
goldmine when used properly. (Blended Search Results)
Results begin to appear in days.
NOTE: Search engines can't find video content on their own, so getting
submission right is critical -- a knowledgeable partner can make this
much easier and much more successful.

So Why Aren't More Companies Using Video?
In this economy, some businesses just don't think it's important enough to spend
the money and that incorporating online video is expensive and offers little
return, but the fact remains that video tremendously increases conversion rates,
persuades visitors to take action and creates credibility & trust.
So the real question business owners need to ask themselves isn't how much
video costs, but how much income are they loosing by not having video.
In the age of lightning fast web-based communications, it's even more critical
now to be ahead of the game and in front of your competition. If a business
waits until everyone else is using video then it's too late. Now is the time to
employ video while it is still somewhat new so that you can stand out from
your competitors.
