How to Get Views on YouTube

Please read description. How do you get views on YouTube? How can you promote, market or advertise yourself, your product or cause using online video? This video provides some inside tips to getting and sustaining an audience. By Kevin “Nalts” Nalty, the only career marketer who doubles as one of YouTube’s most-viewed creators. Not the best YouTube creator or the best marketer, but a unique take based on having “one foot in both camps.” To read more:
http://www.beyondviral.com is the book
http://www.willvideoforfood is the blog

***Note**** I don’t like making money from fellow creators, so please search Google for FREE eBOOK “How to Get Popular on YouTube Without Any Talent.” This book is primarily for people looking to promote brands or causes, and you can find a lot of the basics there. If you wan more the “Beyond Viral” book is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Borders and Booksamillion (http://www.beyondviral.com links to the specific locations on these websites). If they don’t stock it in your local store, please ask them to order it. :) The full title is “BEYOND VIRAL: How to Attract Customers, Promote Your Brand, and Make Money With Online Video.” It was published last month by Wiley & Sons, and is part of David Meerman Scott’s “The New Rules of Social Media Series.”

Also- my friend Steve Garfield wrote a book about getting views, and he has a background in podcasting and video production as well as marketing:
http://offonatangent.blogspot.com/2010/01/where-to-buy-get-seen.html

Here are a few chapters from Beyond Viral…

Chapter 6: Inside YouTube™
The author is also a “YouTube Partner,” who generates revenue from the advertisements on his videos. He has spoken at Google and YouTube, educates global organizations about YouTube and online video, and has helped organize industry some of the largest YouTube gatherings. His “inside knowledge” of the world’s second-largest search engine provides readers with:
* Why YouTube is an indispensible part of a marketing strategy even if the company or brand has video content on its own corporate or brand websites.
* Tips and tricks for helping market more effectively and avoid being lost in the overwhelming clutter.

Chapter 12: Video and Search Engine Optimization
Mark Robertson, author, consultant and founder of ReelSEO, is the leading authority on video marketing and search-engine optimization. Robertson co-authored this chapter on how to use video to improve rankings on search engines. Both Robertson and Nalty have been able to optimize their content and their client’s content in ways that would be nearly impossible with text. Readers will learn how:
* Search engines will dramatically impact your success with online video, and this will become a highly competitive area in coming years. * The search engine is a broker between you and your customer for a variety of reasons.

Chapter 17: Insider Information: Behind the Curtain
This chapter provides a rare glimpse into some of the most-successful online-video creators, and reveals what has made them so attractive to viewers and advertisers.
* You will learn from such stars as “Rhett and Link,” (whose branded entertainment has a cult-like following) and “Venetian Princess” (the most subscribed female musician and parody creator).
* Two other online-video authors share their insider tips as video creators and subject-matter experts. (Garfield, vlogger and author of “Get Seen” and Alan Lastufka, author of “YouTube: An Insider’s Guide to Climbing the Charts”)
* You will learn what’s behind the outstanding success of chart-climbing video creators as Charles Trippy (CharlesTrippy), Hank Green (Vlogbrothers), Shay Butler (ShayCarl) Greg Benson (Mediocrefilms) and Dane Boedingheimer (Gagfilms and Creator of the remarkably popular “Annoying Orange” series).
* Readers will learn how these webstars have turned hobbies into full-time professions that have given brands unsurpassed access to consumers online… and how that can help marketers and entertainers alike.

Hopefully this video, the free eBook and Beyond Viral can save you countless hours of learning through “trial and error” that took the author 1,000 videos and 5 years. Most importantly, you will gain a distinct advantage against other creators, marketers, entrepreneurs and anyone promoting themselves, a product or service, or an important cause. Good luck!

How to Publish a Book on Lulu.com

How to publish and sell a print book with Lulu.com

At Lulu you’re free to create all sorts of remarkable works from photo books and cookbooks, to calendars and eBooks. Today, we’re going to focus on teaching you how to publish your very own paperback or hardcover print book that you can sell to the millions of customers in the Lulu Marketplace, Amazon, and retail stores around the world.

Let’s begin by visiting the “publish” tab at Lulu.com. You can select from a range of products such as photo books and eBooks, but for today let’s focus on paperback and hardcover books.

Step 1: Getting Started

Click the “books” tab. Here you can look over all your paper, binding, and size options. Once you’re ready, click the “start publishing” button, which will launch the publishing wizard.

Step 2: Selecting Paperback or Hardcover

In the wizard, you can choose to create a paperback or hardcover book. The process is similar, but today, we’ll select “make a paperback book.”

Step 3: Title and Author Name

On the “Start a New Project” page, enter your book’s title along with your author name. And decide if you want to make you book available to the general public. Click “save & continue.”

Tip: You can change your book’s availability and add an ISBN at anytime, but it’s important to note ISBNs can only be applied to certain book sizes.

Note to videographer - make public

Step 4: Choose Your Project Options

In this step you’ll apply your preferred paper type, sizing, binding, and choose a color or black and white interior. You can get an estimate of your book’s manufacturing cost using the cost calculator in the upper right hand corner. Click “save & continue.”

Step 5: ISBNs

You’ll need an ISBN to sell through retail channels around the world. You can add your own, or get a free ISBN from Lulu. Click “save & continue” to view all your ISBN options and you can save a copy of your ISBN to your computer.

Step 6: Add Your Files

You can upload Microsoft Word files, PDFs, RTFs, or Images such as .jpg, gif, and .png files by clicking the “browse” button. Once uploaded, you’ll see your file in the “Project files” section. Click “make print ready file.”

Step 7: Making Your Print-Ready File

If you’ve uploaded anything other than a PDF, we’ll convert your file to PDF for you. Review your PDF for errors, then click “save & continue.”

Step 8: Creating Your Cover

You can upload a cover designed by yourself, or you can pick from one of hundreds of our pre-made templates and themes that’ll make your work really stand out. Further customize your work by adding images from your computer. Click “upload your images,” then drag and drop onto your cover. Rotate, resize, and add text as needed. When finished, click “preview and make print-ready cover.” If everything looks good, click the “make print-ready cover” button.

Step 9: Making Your Print-Ready Cover

Once your cover is converted to a print-ready file, review your PDF for errors, then click “save & continue.”

Step 10: Describe Your Project

Select your book’s category, enter in any keywords to help customers find your work more easily, and add your description so readers will know what your book is about. You can also set language, copyright notice,license, and edition, and you can pick a publisher imprint for your work. Once finished, click “save and continue.”

Step 11: Pick Your Price

You’re free to set the price for your work beyond the manufacturing cost and you get to keep 80% of the profits. Once you set your price, you’ll see a breakdown of how much you’ll make on every sale through the Lulu Marketplace, as well as any other retail channels you may have selected.
