These days anyone real estate sellers must use every tool at their disposal if they actually want to sell their home.
Video is one of the tools that home sellers need to use in order to get an edge on the competition in this very tough real estate market.
If done correctly, video is a great way to get your home noticed...
but only if done correctly.
Here are three steps anyone can use to get your video in front of the most people: 1.
Keyword Research - Submitting videos without doing keyword research first is absolutely pointless.
If you do not choose the right keywords no one is going to find your video anywhere in Google.
There are many keyword tools available on the Internet, both free and paid.
Google's free keyword tool is a great place to start, but personally, I prefer to use a software called MircoNiche Finder.
Once you have flushed out keywords that can rank high in Google you will then use those keywords in your video title and description.
2.
Create Video - These days there is a great deal video creation software available on the Internet.
However, not all video creation software is created equal.
It is important that your video looks professional.
The video creation software that we recommend using for real estate listings is Animoto.
With Animoto you can simply use your listing photos as well as video clips of your home to create a professional "slide show" video for your listing.
The software is very user friendly and creates videos that have a crisp professional look that leaves a lasting impression in everyone's mind.
3.
Submit Video - There are many video directories on the Internet...
YouTube is not the only one.
You should submit your video to as many of these directories as possible.
Unfortunately, this can be a time-consuming task if done manually.
The good news is there is software available that will automatically submit your video to over 40 video directories.
TubeMogul is one popular choice although there is quite a buzz going around about VideoBot which is a new software coming out sometime soon.
By following these steps to create and submit your video you will get your video in front of the most possible people.
