This means that visitors will most likely end up staying at your website a lot longer because everyone loves videos, even if they suck. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\" target=\"_blank\">YouTube<\/a> is a great way to add video to your website because they provide a platform to embed videos onto your website, but more importantly they get your video publicized on YouTube&#8217;s huge network. YouTube does this by allowing you to add good titles, descriptions, and tags to your video uploads.<\/p>\n<p>Just to let you know that I do practice what I preach. I recently made a couple simple videos for my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.signupandmakemoney.com\">sign up bonus site<\/a>. One for my opt-in page and one for the home page. I made lots of mistakes with the making of the videos and really didn&#8217;t do much editing. Since I&#8217;ve added them to my site, I&#8217;ve noticed I&#8217;ve been getting more sign ups on my mailing list and I&#8217;m not doing any more advertising than I was before.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Video I added to the opt-in page:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><object width=\"320\" height=\"265\" data=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/WcDU6Z1VySw&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\"><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/WcDU6Z1VySw&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1\" \/><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><\/object><\/p>\n<p><strong>Video I added to the home page:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><object width=\"320\" height=\"265\" data=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/QAaCxkxLNlo&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\"><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/QAaCxkxLNlo&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1\" \/><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><\/object><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">As you can see both of these videos are pretty simplistic, but they help add personality to my website and the name for that is called attraction marketing. This is a form of online advertising that lets prospects get to know the person who is trying to pitch them. I&#8217;m really not trying to sell anything on my site, most of the things I have to offer are free, but I still want to connect with my visitors.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">I plan to make more videos for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.signupandmakemoney.com\">Sign Up and Make Money<\/a> in the future to help my visitors succeed online financially.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Adding video to any website will help decrease bounce rate.
