Video SEO on the launch-pad


Posted by Chris Consorte

I love it. One of the biggest shifts to happen on the Internet - the growth of video - is on the launch-pad and with it goes search engine optimization for video.

One can hardly argue video's continued growth - but the search engine game's been a tricky one. Text is sparse - unlike a web page - and the rules are being re-written NOW.

Would be brilliant to see Microsoft jump in early on the search engine marketing - perhaps paid-search - element of video marketing. Sort of an AdWords model with a twist - and for once Microsoft can be ahead of the curve instead of catching up.

For now - the rules are - there are no rules. Google appears to be making things difficult - for obvious reasons - and nobody else is staking claim to this lucrative element of our immediate future. But it'll be interesting to see how this plays out in the coming months.
