Viral marketing

One of the best method to profit from video marketing is through viral marketing. In many free video sites like youtube, there are thousands of videos which point to a particular website and they are indeed very good for driving traffic to a site.

This has been my impression.

So do you simply post the website address in the beginning or end credits of the video?

I know that many effective videos don't necessarily have formal credits. Or do you rely on the ability to post a link on the page with the video?

The link from video site such as youtube has no affect to the seo. That mean it is no follow link.But video viral marketing is really good to sell entertainment stuff or promote fun blog.

I think that links with "nofollow" are still useful to SEO. I know Google's official line is that they don't count them, but several very skilled SEO gurus have proven that they do help SEO with methodical experiments that they did on brand new websites.

In fact, I completely ignore "nofollow" when I'm building links. I want a nice mix of every kind of link I can get.

So video sites can get you both viral traffic & "some" SEO benefit I believe.
