Great info here. I have just bought EVP but was wanting something to set up video on Youtube with a redirect.

You are giving me a ton of help.

Thanks

Sharon Smith´s last blog ..Easy Video Player the next big thing

Well it looks like I found out about your software the day before launch.
Firstly I want to say that your blog and video training site have just found a permanent spot on my blogs and memberships tab in Firefox. I found out about your Easy Video Software through Mike Filsaime just yesterday but wish I found out alot earlier to get in on the beta testing. I have had my business domain at info4unowmarketing.com for several years now but have just recently started developing the site. I am very, very impressed with your software and have been looking for sometime for a solution to placing videos on my web sites and then I found you. I have joined your video training site and look forward to the release of your software. I obviously missed the beta testing process but am still excited to get your software. I will be patiently waiting in line tommorrow to make my purchase.
Regards.

Thanks alot for the comments! I look forward to working with you for the review in the Coaching for Newbies Newsletter and id be happy to do another article.

Will let you know when its ready and out, we are looking at a launch within a few days from now if all goes well. Speak soon Mark

Awesome, cant wait for the feedback I get from you after using it. We need to hook up this week to chat about doing some Mac Video tutorials. Catch up with you on Skype soon.

I can guarantee you that I WILL be using your product just as soon as I begin producing videos for that upcoming product that we were talking about. I could see that this will provide us with a level of professionalism 100x over the rest of half-assing internet marketers.

This is quality stuff, man!!

I'm happy I finally was able to learn about what you and Matt have been chatting about for the last week. I'm staying in the loop!! =P

I'll talk to you soon, buddy.

Great comment and well made! I agree, that is true, people do need to know where to start. That is my BIG aim with the VideoMarketingClassroom.com, helping people get up and running the right way and giving them the knowledge they need to see real benefits straight off.

Thanks for the kind words!

The video was a little long but I wanted to cover everything. My longest on this blog was 30mins however! (Never again)

Youtube is GREAT to use for benefitting from the viral element it can provide, its also good as a free and very easy option for say video on your blog.

The negatives however are:

1) You cannot easily remove the "recommended videos" that appear after your video has played (there is a setting but alot of people dont know about it) This can obviously generate "traffic leaks" from your sites.

2) The Youtube player is NOT the best player in the world and doesnt work well with some resolutions which others work better with.

3) There is a perceived lack of professionalism when people see the YouTube branding.

4) You would NOT want to use Youtube for a product or sales video player, there are quite a few reasons, firstly, its obviously not particularly professional, secondly, it may also show related videos after which could even be competing products! Finally, agian you have less control over how the video and the player looks and Youtube terms of service actually forbid using it for this sort of thing so technically you should never do it anyway. (i.e. use it for a sales page)

Youtube do not take kindly to HUGE traffic surges brought to your site from say a big launch or promotion and this can get your account into trouble, Something like Amazon S3 can handle this perfectly however.

To put it in context, I have done ALOT of video stuff lately on multiple sites both for myself and clients, all using my Amazon S3 account and my latest bill from Amazon was for a whopping $1.88

This gives me state of the art, industry leading video serving technology with neat features like automatically selecting quality by the viewers internet connection speed, auto selecting a server closest to the viewer so the video loads even faster and all the other benefits using an infrustructure like Amazon's S3 system gives you. Not bad huh!

I recommend using both, use YouTube for the viral element and use something like Amazon S3 for your blog and personal websites.

I just watched your video – all 14+ minutes of it – which is RARE for me. Anything over about 5 minutes has to be good. Anything over about 10 minutes has to be VERY good. LOL!

I think you did an excellent job and you come across knowledgeable and therefore credible.

I'd like to know why YouTube is not the best option. I mean it has free hosting and I have used it a fair bit lately.

Well done with your site here.

Video King huh, Nikki? Gee, there are certainly getting to be a LOT of kings and queens on the net. Next we'll have rooks and bishops and knights. Then again… I suppose I have a Temple – maybe I should be a Shaolin Priest. Kwai-Chang Gary. OK, I'm being frivolous now.

To finish on a sensible note – great work Josh.

What a formal and sensible reply to me!

Anyway, you said:

“Thanks for the kind comments, however, any success you have in Video Marketing will be from you not me, sure you will learn some lessons and tips from me, but by taking that on and taking ACTION, it will be because of you that you will succeed”

Now – while this is true, you are underestimating your influence in this. When people don’t take action it is often because they have no idea where to start, what to do, who to ask for help etc.

For example, you could ask me to conduct an orchestra. Would I have any idea where to start? No. (Other than waving a baton-stick-thing around!). So I wouldn’t conduct it (take action) without taking some tips from someone.

Providing a path to follow is all that most people need to enable them to take action. Your Video Marketing Classroom will be the path & guide that is needed to be able to make videos of your calibre. Yes, of course it requires us to take action, but some of us need someone to point us in the direction of the ‘right’ actions to take.

Don’t sell yourself short.
