Creating YouTube Affiliate Videos | Give a 200% Sales Boost

Videos are often a much easier way to convey the required information to the target audience than with the help of texts or graphics. That is why videos are trendy content on sites; they can be informational (educational video) or advertising (video presentation). Placing videos directly on sites requires hosting with a relatively large amount of available space, as well as high bandwidth. It is an expensive way of advertising. A solution to this problem has long been found: videos posted on a separate video hosting site, and then, using a specific code, they are "embedded" in the right place on the site.

Why Affiliate Videos Better Than Any Other Ways of Promotion?

The most popular and demanded video hosting is YouTube. Advertising on this platform has other advantages as well. For example, 96% of surveyed users find videos useful in making online purchasing decisions. That is why, using video ads on YouTube is just a must-have for the vast majority of entrepreneurs. With that in mind, let's find out how YOU can benefit from it and create Youtube affiliate videos.

Why is Youtube Your Best Solution?

Youtube is no longer a place for cat lovers and people who do not know how to tie a tie. Nowadays, it is an incredibly massive platform with lessons, webinars, tips, clips, films, and more. Moneymakers have already understood that with Youtube, you can make a fortune. If you are a blogger who loves to discuss web assets, but you do not know where to start, read this review to determine how to become a successful affiliate business on Youtube. 

Ways To Get Rich With Affiliate Video?

YouTube is a platform where millions of people publish new masterpieces every second. Many promoted bloggers have become local and global opinion leaders. Advertisers are willing to pay generously to have their product advertised by the owner of silver or gold "button" - special video hosting awards. Monetizing a YouTube channel is hard work, which will not frighten those who have seriously decided to generate income on video content. YouTube bloggers get paid for:

1. Participation in the official PP Adsense: pay per views and clicks.
2. Cooperation with other affiliate networks.
3. Collaboration with advertisers.
4. Affiliate links to goods and services.
5. Voluntary donations from subscribers (contributions).

The promotion of videos on YouTube is one of the essential tasks of complex website promotion. All in all, there are two main reasons:

• placing a video on YouTube gives the promoted site a high-quality link from an authoritative resource;
• Youtube allows you to get transitions from video to your website.

How to Start Earning Fast?

In the beginning, earning an affiliate program might take time. For those who cannot wait weeks, months, or even years for-profits, sadly counting the cents from ad commissions of affiliate programs, working directly with advertisers is a gold mine. Direct cooperation with established, popular channels can bring high profits quickly. In this case, you do not need to share funds with a third-party. All the income comes to you. The more people subscribe to your channel, the higher the direct ad revenue. Of course, serious advertisers consider channels with over 1 million subscribers. But do not get sad, we know how to do business. From your side, you need to be patient and keep hard work. Always act competently and professionally. Present the best aspects of your channel, which include:

1. communication statistics;
2. optimized metadata;
3. Views number;
4. Subscribers quantity;
5. quality of video content, etc.

Top Reasons to Make YouTube Affiliate Videos a Part of Your Marketing Strategy

Before we move to the list of the actionable tips, let's look at the numbers:

• YouTube’s audience comprises more than 1.5 billion active monthly users, which is more than one-third of YouTube’s total user base.
• 45% of Internet users spend more than one hour each week watching videos on YouTube and Facebook.
• Male users spend 40% more time watching videos on YouTube than ladies.
• Millennials prefer YouTube rather than traditional television.
• People aged 35+ and people aged 55+ are the fastest growing YouTube age demographics.
• 80% of YouTube users are males.
• Only 9% of small businesses are on YouTube.

The last number is shocking. More than 90% of modern-day businesses do not include YouTube in their online marketing strategies. The web community is extremely engaged with YouTube. So, by not including YouTube in your online marketing strategy, you face the risk of giving traffic and revenue to your competitors.
To make use of YouTube and watch its positive effect on your affiliate marketing campaign performance, we've prepared a checklist of the working YouTube tips.

Actionable YouTube Affiliate Videos Tips to Drive More Traffic

To make your videos findable on YouTube, you need to optimize your content the same way you do to get a better ranking in Google search. Start with the video title and description. Select the focus keyword and use it in the title, meta description and tags of your video. Write a unique copy for your video and create a custom image for your data. Also, add affiliate links inside of content to your web page and create cards on each video linking to a product page or any different URL.

Upload videos frequently to drive more traffic to your channel. However, don’t just focus on the quantity but focus on the quality as well. Create a schedule and stick to it. For example, you may choose to share videos on Thursdays only, once a week, every other week or once a month. It's up to you to decide on the most preferable schedule. Also, keep an eye on the user engagement stats. If you see a decline in activity, then you'd better think about bringing changes to your strategy.

Create playlists. In such a way, you will be able to provide your viewers with lists of videos that are related to one another and make it easier for your visitors to sift through the past uploads.

Promote! Similar to any other platform, promotion of videos on YouTube through social media, newsletters, and your website is important to increase traffic to your channel.
Include CTAs. It's fine to tell your viewers what particular actions you'd like them to take. Do you invite viewers to subscribe to your updates or check out a new compilation of themes that you've shared on your blog? Provide them with a chance to take an action. They will react positively if they really need it.

The first impression matters a lot. While scrolling down the feed of recently added YouTube videos, people see small previews that can catch their attention... or not. To evoke their curiosity and invite them to watch your content, consider using custom thumbnails. These are images demonstrating what your videos are all about. Here are several examples of videos with preview thumbnails that can be found on TemplateMonster YouTube channel.

In Conclusion

All in all, YouTube promotion gives advertisers a reasonable option in contrast to TV advertisements. For quite a long time, TV promotions have been the best type of media publicizing. 

Moreover, YouTube is the second largest search engine (after Google, of course). For 2019, it is used by more than 2,000,000,000 logged in users every month - this is half of the total Internet population. They watch a billion hours of video per day. The site operates in 80 different languages and has local versions for 91 countries. At the same time, only 16% of users are from the United States; the rest are from other countries of the world. With that in mind, you have to take an chance and start earning money.
