YouTube Video on Facebook

YouTube Video Facebook Tip

From your Facebook page write good copy to entice people to watch your video.

YouTube Video Facebook Website Tip

Canadian Lakes placed on their home page a link to the video page.

How Canadian Lakes used their YouTube Video on Facebook. From their Discover Canadian Lakes Facebook page they posted about a recent ‘coming soon video’ produced by DW Video.

What they did was create a page on their website to embed the video.  Then on their facebook page they directed to the Canadian Lakes website.  On the home page they have a link to a page with the video embedded.  This is a great way to drive traffic to your site.  NOTE: the only think I would recommend is to provide the link direct to the page the video is on.  We shared this in a past blog post – Best way to use YouTube video links.

Driving people to your website is important. Placing YouTube Video on Facebook is a great way to get social.  Ideal in telling and very important – Sharing your message.

YouTube Video Embed on Website

Creating a page on your website that has the video embedded is perfect.

Producing YouTube Video on Facebook is an ideal way to inspire and educate your current and potential customers.  Sharing the link to your website page that has the video embedded on your site helps drive traffic.

Video on Facebook vs You Tube Link

Video on facebookWas wondering the other day what the best way to use video on Facebook.  Here are a couple things I found out.

1) Facebook video does show up in Google search.

2) Posting directly in YouTube increases Google search rankings.

Now, does using a You Tube video link on your business facebook page work better than posting video on facebook direct?  According to business2community.com, video on facebook receive more comments than those via You Tube links. What does that mean to you?  More interaction with your customers and prospects. You can also tag people on Facebook videos.

I will say my research has me scratching my head.  Video on Facebook looks good.  YouTube is a one stop source for video.  Do you want to upload to both?  Do you want to take the time.  Are you using Facebook as your main social page or using other media sites. Facebook maybe more work than what you want to give to this.  YouTube videos are great for overall social media integration.

What I find useful is a combination of video on Facebook and You Tube Videos.  Putting my videos on DW Video You Tube Channel is my first step. Then placing certain ones on my dwvideomultimedia Facebook page is the next.

Shares are more visible on Facebook pages than likes

Comment on your shares

Not only ‘like’ the page but ‘share’ as well. Commenting engages others and expands your reach.

Share Key SharingCommenting provides more power than likes so, shares are more visible on Facebook pages than likes – is that true?  Why would that be?

  • Shares are more visible on Facebook pages than likes.
  • You can share a message, a thought and encourage engagement when you share.
  • By sharing it encourage Facebook users to click on your link because you made it social and offered your insight.
  • From my research shares can lead to more traffic

Likes are easy, people can engage quickly and move on with their day.  Shares on the other hand take some thought.  For that reason they are harder to get.  When a person takes the time to engage with your post, they are giving of the one thing that is valuable… their time. However, just like a share can be valuable because someone takes time to post – we all hope for a positive thought.  By posting content on your Facebook the content is exposed to the people that follow your page.  Now imagine people on your site share your post it opens you up to people on their page.  This increases your reach.  Increases your exposure.  Others may see your content that may have never  heard of you before.  It is important to have people both ‘like’ and ‘share’ . On our Buy Local Michigan Video Blog I have noticed just how ‘shares’ expand your message and reach.  The below examples show how sharing really increases the reach of these posts.
