Internet Marketing ABC

If you are uploading videos to YouTube, your endgoal should always be: TRAFFIC! You want to get traffic to your website or your affiliate link.  (The only exception where traffic doesn’t matter is if you want to create buzz and get a message or idea out there. But even then, in most cases you get more out of it if you direct traffic to your website).

Too many people miss this. The most important element aside from your title is the first line of the description. Because if you put a link in the first line, it will be a clickable link that will always be there next to your YouTube video. If you insert that address at the bottom of the description, people will have to click on the tiny “more info” link first (very few people do) and you miss out on lots of potential traffic.
