Sound Solutions: North Bank Audio Solutions

Here’s another question I helped a friend on LinkedIn with. I think the answer will help the general public. Check it out:

My original question:

What questions do you have about using audio or video in your marketing or product development efforts (info products, podcasts, online videos etc).

Alex’s response:

What are some of the best ways to promote online video into directories, search engines and RSS submission sites?

My advice:

Hi Alex,

I would start by submitting your videos to http://www.tubemogul.com/. This automatically submits them all the major video engines for free.

There is also a paid solution that has some other features at www.trafficgeyser.com.

I would post videos to your blog if you have one. If you do not have a blog, you should consider creating one. Wordpress.com is what I would suggest if you are just getting started.

You can take the blog a step further by making it a video podcast. This just means you are embedding the actual video files in the posts, so you have to link to the actual source file. If you use wordpress.com, you’ll want to purchase two upgrades: custom domain and a hosting upgrade so you can have your own domain name and upload mp3 files. This will only cost $30-40 per year!

You’ll want to set up a feedburner.com account too. It’s free. This helps you track who subscribes and gives you all sorts of cool tools.

Then, submit your feedburner feed url to directories using podpusher.com and submit to the iTunes directory by installing the free iTunes software and clicking on the “podcasts” button and entering your feed url from feedburner.

If any of the above makes your head spin, you can email me at caleb@northbankaudio.com and we can either set up a consultation or you can simply delegate the work to us so you can focus on your content.

I hope this helps!
