How to Use Current Events and Youtube to Drive Traffic to Your Site…

I have a video on 1 of my several YouTube profiles that is about network marketing and has stirred up some conversation debate over whether or not mlm is a feasible business opportunity. After about 7 months online, the video has almost 5000 views and has developed a little bit of traffic back to my site. Great. It took me 10 mins to make it, another 10 to edit and compile the video, and another 10 to upload it, do keyword research, and type the headline/description. So a half an hour of work that resulted in some leads to my business. Good stuff…

But this below video has gotten over 4,000 views in the last 2 or 3 days… Why? Timing…

It’s the Olympics and the big thing going on right now is Michael Phelps gold medal wins and world record breaking performances…

So what did I do? I created a tribute to him, did a voiceover on some pictures of Phelps, and added a link to my site.

Pretty sweet, huh?

Think to yourself, “what’s going on that’s very BIG… controversial, inspiring, whatever…” and then put up a video w/ your commentary about it… Share it with friends, associates, and your email lists… The more views, high ratings, and comments the better.
