SEOMoz had a great video this Friday about four less well-known link-building techniques. Since we’ve all read a million articles about link-building I thought it was great to see something fresh in this space.
As you all know I’m also a big fan of video and SEOMoz’s Whiteboard Friday’s are a favorite of mine. So watch this video and then grab a beer and stop reading blog posts – it’s Sunday and Monday is a Holiday!

I noticed recently when looking at Youtube that the search results for certain phrases I am trying to rank some of my geo sites for at Google were far lower than the results in Google – OK not really a surprise but it does illustrate that the competition to rank a video is much lower than to rank a website. I already have a video produced via Animoto for several of my geo sites so I opened a Youtube account and was quickly able to upload the videos from my Animoto account. I edited the text descriptions and at least for some less competitive phrases my videos quickly ranked on the first page of Youtube. No sandbox or inbound links to worry about
It appears the titles and text are key to ranking a video. I’m not sure how much video age and ratings affect the rankings if at all.
Nice share Morgan. SEOMoz really produces great stuff. The testimonial tip is so simple but yet I never thought of it before.
Great tips! I’ve used press releases in the past and it always works well. I can do my own css designing, but I’ve never thought about submitting to gallery sites a a linkback technique. Thanks for some unique suggestions!
