The thing is, as is the case with a lot of the content on the Web, need for online video optimization is a must.
Do not relay on optimizing your video content for SEO (only in the instance of encoding / for fast loading) Use your videos for content assistance, meaning... 1. TXT content #1 2. Relative TITLE 3. Info-graphics 4. Video Presentation
Not a problem, I come from a full time job that uses editorial and video to promote. Editorial is the only thing that spiders/bots can read, video will assist your content for the humans, info-graphics will also help.
Keep your videos short n interesting. Also dont forget to use your brand logo in it. Thanks Dav for sharing these points.
Your link will be rel="nofollow" devilx. But your link viewers will have the opportunity to follow if they wish.
Stick to the content and informative rather than any special effect. It should be easily readable by visitor.
