As I’m currently creating marketing videos to promote a limousine company, I was fascinated to read a little used technique that can dramatically increase your YouTube video views.

Video Response

What is a Video Response?
As you know, YouTube allows viewers to rate and comment on the videos they have watched.
A Video response is just another method of responding to YouTube videos.

Why should I post a Video Response?

Video Response provides you with an opportunity to piggy back popular videos. (As long as it is relevant).

It is a video marketing technique to increase the number of views your video receives by association with related content that has already received a high number of views.

How to create a Video Response:

Upload a video to YouTube.

Find a related video (on YouTube), that has LOTS of views.

Post a video response.

Look underneath the video in the section called “Video Responses”.

On the right hand-side you’ll see a blue link that says “Post a Video Response”.
Click on that link and you will then be taken to a page where you can post a video response.

Click on the link in the middle that say, “Choose a Video”.
Select one of the videos you have already uploaded on YouTube and click on the button that says, “Respond with This Video”.

I’ve added video responses to a couple of limousine videos that are getting lots of hits and I’ll let you know what impact it has.

Please share any success you have using this technique.
