    Hi,

    Just wondering how people 'actually' go about marketing on Youtube and then converting it into an actual sale and making money ? Is it a case of trying to think of something useful and or funny and then watermark it with your website address? Just trying to get to the stage of getting people to buy something or is it a case of just making people aware of you ?

    Appreicate any thoughts....

    I believe one makes a video of ones product and perhaps put one self into the video and then go around posting the link to that video that has been made to others profiles causing them to view.

    Join an affiliate program like Amazon

    Post a review of an item, and make it a good review.

    Watermark your website address in the video.

    Put a link to your site in the video description - even have it go to the page where people can buy the item.

    If you want some examples, go to youtube and find the channel for tigerdirect.

    lolcats is the bomb.

    Something about having cats/kittens in a youtube video that everyone falls for. Probably not marketing relevant at all, but yeah, will make the views come in.

    It's a good way if you can create creative videos.. Pointless videos don't get many views on YouTube
