    Well it depends if your willing to spend money or not. You could run a youtube featured campaign and get some targeted users, or if you dont want to spend money you can digg it, or post it on relevant forums.

    If you have a tight budget, i will suggest social bookmarking. This is a very fast way to generate really good traffic to your site – for free. This is good traffic because the visitor finds your site by searching for the keywords that you’ve used when you bookmarked it. They are essentially looking for you.

    Use OnlyWire.com (free to use). Getting set up with OnlyWire takes a couple of hours, because you will need to go to each of the social bookmarking sites that it lists, register, and then put your username and password for each site into the list at OnlyWire.

    List the keywords that are associated with the page you are bookmarking, and hit submit. You’re done with that page – move on to the next one.

    Well for optimizing it for Youtube search, go over to the Google Keyword Tool and type in what you're targetting. Find the top searched key phrases and make them your tags. Also submit to social bookmarking sites and such. Get the word out there :).

    Another great tip is to put your videos in the comments section of popular myspace profiles. Put it on auto play so that when people visit the page, you will get views. This is a great tip for getting more views to your video. Hope this helps.

    It depends on what you want to do. If you just want to get those two vids you've made "out there" fast you should go for social bookmarking and maybe http://youtubejumpstart.info

    Promote your videos on MySpace and Facebook. Both social network websites offer easy ways to upload or link to YouTube videos so that all of your friends can view them and tell their friends, as well.

    The optimizing it with the normal SEO tactics for keywords, description and title is important.

    My experience is that 75% of traffic from video on You Tube, which means that you are losing marketshare if you are only doing You Tube.

    You can also market by social media, socialbookmarking, embed into forums or websites that your video answering questions.
    (I got a course that has 33 video walking you through this step by step)

    Cheers,
    Mukul

    use facebook, Tag all your friends in the video and start the conversation. Facebook is really great place for video marketing. Ask your friends to share it on facebook.

    Promoting your video in consistent tasks starting from posting it to youtube and other video hosting site. Then do some social bookmarking..

    To attract potential watcher you must create a good video that have a series of continuity, so people will come back to see other related video from you.

    Social bookmarking is definitely a great idea, you can even try some link building for your videos.
