    And i have more...

    Those 2 videos im showing, was the top #1 and #2 most viewed of ALL TIME in YT for more than a year... (until i stop working on them to be honest he he).

    NO FAKE VIEWS at all, that was NOT my technique.

    I never talked about this before, because don't want to make much "noise" that coulod affect my campaign.

    Im NOT selling ebooks and will not disclose exactly my technique, i am not trying to convince nobody about nothing and i am not promoting any service of mine, because i don't do this kind of service (just for my own!).

    Just want to talk about general info about successfully marketing using youtube.

    At least i get thousands of back links and for sure, and many sales. :)

    My recommendations:

    1.- Find a GOOD nitche (not a marketing nitche) a VIDEO NITCHE, like mine "bannded funny commercials". (It dosent have nothing to do with my products, but that dosent matter)

    2.- Make VIRAL campaign. This means, put awesome videos that everybody show to his friends.

    3.- Don't try to sell nothing with the video. Nobody watches videos that promote products i guess.
    Of course, promotional videos could be uploaded to youtube, to use yt as a host and then show those videos on your own site. But DON'T EXPECT YOUTUBE USERS TO WATCH your promotional videos!!!

    4.- Get AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE GOOD RANKINGS in the first hours after uploading the video... thats CRITICAL. That make a video viral. if you fail in that, forget the viral campaign.

    5.- Do NOT try to promote your own video adding anywhere or getting backlinks to your videos. Just use your imagination and USE THE POINT 4 AS THE MOST IMPORTANT POINT.

    Once you get your video as TOP on some youtube ranking, you are done, you are in the hall of fame ;)

    Cute videos, but their not "your" videos. You recorded them off TV, or got them from another website.

    Its not really fair to put a professional made video, filmed with professional equipment and with hired actors up against amateur made videos filmed with a point and shoot camera.

    A video is only "yours" if you recorded it yourself, and you own the rights to the video.

    Unless you bought the rights to those commercials, their are not "your" successful videos. Their the successful videos of the film company that owns them.

    ??????

    I do not know if you notice that we are talking about MARKETING (the forum section is "marketing"), and how to makes successfully VIRAL campaings in youtube. This is not a video_artist_making videos discussion.

    I never state that i made the videos or where "mine". I am talking about s SUCCESSFULLY VIRAL CAMPAIGN, and this was a real successfully one (you will have a hard time trying to find a more successfully one). Please keep talking about the subject, thank you.

    You did not state that the videos are yours? Then please explain the quote below. The important part is bolded and underlined.


    As a video producer, I can say with certain honesty, that what you are doing is theft. You have taken someone elses videos and claimed them as your own.

    This is one of the main reasons why youtube and google are in so much legal trouble, because people keep uploading videos that belong to someone else.

    What you have done is no different then stealing someones car and using it for your own personal gain. But because its a video, its ok? The problems created by copyright infringement filter through the entire youtube community.

    Your example is not one of a successful Youtube marketing campaign. Its an example of theft.

    Stop trying to use absurd arguments to get your signature showing please.

    As i show before, this thread and this forum is about MARKETING campaigns. Your own ideas about the way youtube works, etc. keep it for your self or use another thread.

    Nobody ask this kind of debate here, so please stop abusing this thread.

    Unless you have problems readding you can easily understand that if i said:

    The MINE was talking about THE CAMPAIGN, what its MINE is the campaign... its not THAT hard to understand it.
    Don't try to be abusive and try to mess everything.


    I don't need to read here your own opinion about other things, thanks but keep it for your own. I don't care if you are a producer or not.
    We are talking about MARKETING VIRAL CAMPAIGNS, so top using absurd comments.

    I will not answer your tricky arguments because don't want you to keep abusing this thread, but if you want to open another thread i will gladly explain you everything until you understand.

    So, please stop doing this. Don't feel the loon ranger doing "justice" Don't do that in other people threads.
    People PAYS to show their ads, spreading the adds do not hurt the interests of the producers, don't make me laught please.

    But as i said, i want answer you, because then you will continue abusing this thread,
    Go with your ideas and open another thread and discuss that there please.

    If you want to talk about making a succesfully viral campaign in youtube, then comment.

    I edited my post and removed my signature - just for you.


    This thread is about theft, not marketing.


    Its not "my" opinion, its US Federal law. Copyright infringement is a crime.


    Would we sit back and do nothing when our neighbors car was being stolen?

    It is the duty of every citizen to uphold the laws, morals and values that bind the fabric of our society together.

    You started this thread to show off, or else you would not have posted the video stats. The sole purpose of this thread was to get those stolen videos some more views, and maybe get your website some more hits.

    And that is all I have to say about your stolen video thread.

    Good day to your sir.

    "Stop trying to use absurd arguments to get your signature showing please"


    lolwut.... kev is one of the most helpful people around DP lately. Take a look at his post count and rep before you start spouting off. He posed a very reasonable question and based solely on your response it seems he hit the nail right on the head.

    You are the guy that recommend in this same forum to open a youtube channel and post 300+ videos of soccer?, then stop acussing people!!

    Yes, i know, now you will say: "no, but i was recommending him to film himself playing soccer, please do not think i was recommending recording soccer from tv"

    I don't care. I will not continue this abusive discussion with you. Stop abusing other people threads, just because they do much more succesfully what you recommend others to do.

    Nah.

    The thread was about making a successfully campaign on youtube.

    This guy has recommended poeple to upload 300+ socces videos to youtube to have success... and at that moment he don't find any questionable think about that.

    But now, when he find someone that REALLY get a good result. Suddenly he start abusing he thread. Using false arguments, trying to make people think that i state what i NEVER STATE.
    Its easy to notice that, just look how he try to put in mouth what never was there.

    Its just a attempt (don't know why) to destroy another people threads with questions and remarks that he never use nefore when talking about uploading videos to youtube.

    This is just a abuse and nothing more.

    -----------------------

    For the people reading this:


    I create a VERY SUCCESFULL CHANNEL on youtube (millions of visitos) showing ads that was banned from TV. Just that.

    Spreading funny commercials. Never said was mine (its so obvious).

    This jealuosy guy appears from the nothing accusing me that i said was mines!!! Its crazy!!

    Yenerich,

    At the end of the day the use of that ad is illegal. What you are doing is not a successful marketing campaign, what you are doing is using somebody else’s hard work to benefit yourself.

    While I am sure that the maker of the Ads MAY want them to get publicity, they do not want the ad used to get YOUR website publicity!

    Stop repeating absurd stuff.

    If you saw a youtube channel in youtube called "Banned Commercials" you will never think that the guy that collect all this banned commercials claims that he is the author, that makes no sense. Its so obvious that is was not the case and nobody ever thought that i claim the authory. Of course, i never claim to be the author. Read my post and you will see.

    Starting this discussion here was so abusive from ~kev~

    Maybe he had a bad day or he start posting without really think on what he was saying. Its SO OBVIOUS.

    Also, in my post i never pretend to be the author and i clearly state that i was no looking any benefit from this thread.

    Im sure that ~kev~ will take a breathe and then he will recognize his big mistake and comes here to delete his unfair accusations.

    So, please, lets stop discussing something that its obvious that is wrong.

    If anybody want to discuss about how to get millions of visitors on youtube, lets talk. otherwise, stop just repeating something that is just a fallacy.

    I'm not taking anyone sides, and I'm not a expert at legalities of these kind of things.

    But, however the material he has uploaded doesn't seem to be a intent of theft. The material may be copyrighted, but it's banned material so it has no use and validity. However, since the video was from another country he may not get in trouble for it due to the fees by the provider (and he isn't losing money to the original publisher). Also, for your facts, YouTube gets sued for it's lack of immediate response to claims on videos and they pay for losses made to the companies that videos are being distributed across Google/YouTube. If they don't comply in time, they lose money and the companies sue YouTube for that. It's exactly like someone 'recording a fight' and putting it on YouTube, and people wanting YouTube to take it off before the people involved in the video are exposed, but it ain't going to happen. If around 4.6 million videos are removed every year on YouTube (and increasing), they must have a lot of staff to watch that many videos (and they can't get round to one video immediately).

    What he is doing though is 'profiting of others work', which isn't a crime but a disrespectful action. If they want to promote their video on YouTube, they've got the free right to do so - and they don't need you to do it.

    Exactly as youtube does, per example.

    If you want to start a philosophical discussion about if its wrong that a website shows a pic from an actress, and the owner of the blog do not make that photo itself... go to make your philosophical discussion somewhere else, not on this thread.

    Its so obvious that i was not trying to claim any authory that the sole accusation is an abuse.
    The channel name was "Banned Commercials"... and people watch TV commercials that was banned.
    No even a 6 yo boy will think that the guy that collects those videos was claiming to be the author.

    In fact there is no profit in showing the videos. Of course its free and i don't charge anything for watching those videos.

    Lets be clear, what i do is just the SAME EXACTLY thing that people goes to saw on youtube every day.
    Just spread funny stuff.

    Why someone (that previously recommend in this forum to upload soccer videos to youtube to make a profit of them) suddenly try to make me guilty of something that is acceptable and normal in youtube and internet?

    I have a theory: he can't accept that someone show really succesfully viral campaign on youtube.

    Maybe im wrong, but i cant imagine another reason.
