    Hi everyone!

    I'm fairly new to the internet business and I apologize if this is a complete noobie question but those standard SEO tactics apply to video based sites. I want to build a couple of sites based only on videos and I want to know what are the best methods to give them a competitive edge on the search engines.

    Thanks

    You can promote your video sites as follows:
    1. Choose target keywords for videos
    2. Create a sitemap for your video sites
    3. Upload videos content to social networks
    4. Develop and build backlinks and other do-follow links to your Videos

    These are my personal advices. Hope it can help you!
    And I suggest you go to the professional SEO company for help!

    Hi
    I just want to say that optimize you site as well as professional site not to choose same content for your site as the old sites contain. You have to choose a proper title for it which is quite related to your keyword. If you do this properly then you can compete easily. After this you can take your site at lofty heights in the google by doing SEO for your site. If you want to know more about it then you can send me a PM

    I incorporate many videos into my sites and just underneath the video in the same table cell I add a detailed description of it. I also make sure to start the description with "This video" or "This You Tube Video". I get a fair bit of traffic from people searching for the kind of videos I display.
