Advantages of a Video Introduction to your Business

Nearly one-third of the time people spend online involves watching video. Granted, a large portion of that is of baby goats and kittens, but many other people are engaging with videos about local businesses while they are searching for products and services they need everyday. If you've yet to dive into video marketing you're not connecting with hundreds or even thousands of potential local customers. With video more affordable than ever, now is the time to take advantages of these amazing video marketing benefits.
Higher Google search results
Google sees as much as 70 percent of all online searches and since Google owns YouTube, their search results prioritize websites that have a YouTube embedded video. Some studies show that a website is 53 times more likely to show up as the first result on Google if it has an embedded video.
Off page SEO
When properly uploaded and distributed through a variety of video hosting sites your business' video introduction becomes a key piece of off page SEO. A properly uploaded video includes a well written and keyword rich title and description, as well as tags, which helps search engines index your video so people see it when looking for your services online.
Spend more time on page
In many cases people will leave a website without spending more than 15 seconds on a page. This is because they're searching for easy, direct answers about a business, which is exactly what video provides. A website that offers a video introduction could see visitors stay as much as 88 percent longer than on a page that does not.
Engagement & Clarity
Not only will the video encourage people to spend more time on your website but they will also engage with the page. After watching your video they're more likely to visit pages, other than your site's homepage, in order to discover more about your products and services because they'll feel more connected to your business. You don't need special effects and puppies to make an engaging video, just honestly, great imagery and a clear description of your business.
Proven to increase sales
All of the above, the increased time on the page, the engagement, the heightened search results, all translate into increased sales for your business. Providing a video introduction of your SMB allows people to better understand what you do and sell, making them as much as 74 percent more likely to use your products or services.<br><br>
