Did you know that the video website, YouTube, has over 200 million videos and millions of users watching those videos every day? YouTube is just one video website, there are many more including Google Videos, AOL?Videos, and MetaCafe. If you aren't using video marketing to reach your target audience, you are missing a huge free advertising opportunity.

Maybe you have spent countless hours of your time driving traffic to your website. You've spent money on pay-per-click advertising campaigns, Google AdWords, or maybe you have hired someone to market your site. Why not just go to high traffic sites to promote your product or website, rather than banging your head against a brick wall trying to think of ways to get traffic to come to you?

By placing a short video about your business, product, or service, on highly trafficked websites, you can tap in to the traffic that is already theremarketing management. Additionally, if you name your video using highly searched keywords, your video will come up in Google searches when people search for a particular topic. See, sites like YouTube and Google Videos are already highly indexed by Google, so those sites are paying for hosting, bandwidth, and advertising to get traffic. Ride the coat tails of these sites -?put yourself where the traffic is.

Your video does not have to be elaborate or professionally made. Many internet marketers are using simple homemade videos made on their webcam, digital cameras, or even cell phones. Once your video is made, you can also use it as a sales tool on your own website, blog, or even on sites like eBay.

Creating just one video and uploading it to YouTube can send new visitors to your site, increase your sales, and even help build your mailing list. Click here to check out my promotional videos on YouTube, and see some examples of how video marketing really works!
