Hello my name is Anthony and I want to give you 7 good reasons why you should be using video in your online marketing.
You Me Your Goal – Faster
So these reasons are back up by research. I haven’t made them up in anyway.
The first reason is people stay on your site longer than if they were just reading text. Video has sight sound and motion and that is more attractive than words alone.
The second reason is that video is 100% more socially engaging. That means people will like, share and comment on your videos more often.
The third reason is very important. If you are selling something then the prospective buyers behaviour will be changed as a result of watching video content. Research has shown a 46% lift in conversaion rates which means more sales on your top line.
The fourth reason is that people will have a 139% higher brand association and a 97% lift in purchase intent. That means people will remember and want to do business with you.
The fifth reason is you don’t need to be a professional cinematographer. User made videos have about a 20% increase in brand preference, but user made plus professionally made videos have about a 35% lift in brand preference. That means you will look better than you competitors.
The sixth reason is Video SEO. When people see Google’s search results they get a mix of text, image and video results. Pictures and videos have thumbnails. These thumbnails deliver a massive 41% increase in click through rate.
I could go on and give you more but the seventh reason is that by 2017 90% of all traffic on web is forecast to be video traffic. So you need to start now to get ahead of the pack. You need to learn the basics.
