How Web Marketing Video Can Help You - Even if Only a Few People Watch

Everyone in marketing is talking about web marketing video right now. Websites that specialize in discussing Search Engine Optimization (SEO) regard video as one of the fundamental necessities for a website’s success in search engine results. Video is important, and no one is arguing. However, we often receive questions from customers who are nervous about how many people will actually view their videos. Most are surprised to learn that much of a video’s benefit is still felt even if no one watches the video.

How can a video help you even if no one watches it?
The answer lies in Google and other search engines. Google uses software called a “crawler” to scan websites to determine their relative value on Google’s search engine. When you search for a term, Google’s crawlers will have already ranked websites, and it will display the websites that seem to offer the most quality content. The process of enhancing your website’s ability to perform well on Google and other search engines is called SEO.

Google loves video, which is unique content. If a website wants potential clients to be able to find them on the web, they need to offer unique content that Google deems valuable. Hosting videos on your own website is a sure way to show Google your website is a quality resource for people searching for the services you provide.

So, can a video provide a massive benefit to your website and business even if no one watches it? The answer is yes! However, at the Fairfax Video Studio we believe that videos need to be shared, watched, and promoted. We offer a full range of social media guidance and web marketing that will give your video (and your website) the best shot at being seen by many viewers.
