None of my videos have ever used programs to increase their view count. Doing so only damages the entire youtube community.

If you make a quality product, you dont have to worry about "cheating".

good suggestions here, make an ebook and take a chance from viral marketing traffic.

I dont think there is a large enough audience for what I want to market.

Sorry to hear that your videos are being taken down.. as a vegetarian I am not a big fan of hunting.. but that shouldnt mean it should be censored since someone opposes.

Yes video is a very powerful tool to get traffic for your site. When making a video to drive traffic to your website think of it as a commercial.

I've heard so many stories regarding viral video marketing and every article talks of it's advantages. Personally, I've never seen a video online and "decided to check the site out", but it sure seems to work. I'm really going to have to break down and try it soon...

The term "viral video" is funny to me. It just means that people send the video to other people. It does not mean that the video was funny or bad. Viral just means the video was spread. And how many people have to spread the video before it becomes viral? Does posting the video on a blog or forum count as spreading it? Or does the video have to spread through email to be viral?

There are so many ways to do your videos. It depends on the market you want to tap into. Do you want your videos to be funny, serious, relaxed or professional?

As for visiting websites, what got me into making videos was after watching someone else. After about the 10th video this other person released, he lost direction. So I took his basic idea and ran with it.

The important thing is to know your market. What group of people are you trying to reach? I have no interest in attracting anyone less then around 21 years old. My target group is 21 - 60+, white male, hunters, campers, people that like to to go camping, hiking. The secondary group are people that are concerned about the situation our nation and our planet is in. If your worried about some kind of disaster, such hurricane, war, disease or nuclear strike, you are the type of person my videos are pointed towards.

I know my target groups. And as a result I try to make a wide range of videos that target as many people from that group as possible.
