You Tube

Did you know you can make your own video using Power Point and Camtasia Studios if you have a PC and the software is free and included on MAC (not sure what it’s called though).

Imagine taking your post and turning into a bullet point list on Power Point. Then with Camtasia and your headset record your blog. Make sure it’s under 5 minutes so you don’t exceed their time limit. Save the recording and render it as an.avi or .mpeg file.

Once you’ve uploaded the video to YouTube, you can play it and then copy the URL. Paste the URL into your blog and be sure to remove (break) the link. If you don’t, when people click the video they are sent to YouTube and away from your blog.

Next, post the same video on MySpace and your Facebook account. Be sure you have tagged the video with a link to your blog. This will create a highly ranked back link from very highly ranked websites. It counts more for increasing your ranking the higher the website you place your link, i.e. back link.

Next, post a link on the groups you’ve joined on Linkedin and answer at least two or three discussions and be sure to include a link to your blog. Then start your own discussion and as a question that you’ve answered in your blog post.

It’s a simple method of increasing your ranking very rapidly.
