#1 in Google video search results
google video search
The results are already in after distributing 2 videos yesterday.
The first video has already made it to #1 position for google video and youtube for the 3 term search phrase I was targetting, all within 24 hours.
The second video made it to #9 position (still on the front page, just) for a 2 term keyword that is HUGELY competitive. We’re talking about the dating niche, so ranking first page for a 2 term phrase is very encouraging. Next I’m going to target a set of long tail keywords (3 term & 4 term) to see if I can make #1 for the subniches…
Video Marketing – 10 hours to produce dating video
singles-dating.org
Okay so it’s pretty much 10 hours since I started my chunking schedule for today, the results are good… very good.
All in all, I’m quite proud of the video I produced today in terms of content and quality. The chunking has helped in every aspect of my day so it looks like this will be my new good habit to adopt in 2010.
TIME SAVING: Firstly, I allocated 6 chunks of 90 minutes for each different task required. Yesterday these 6 chunks took me over 12 hours, so by being more efficient I reduced my man hours today by 90mins.
PRODUCITIVITY: I felt much more focussed today, I wasn’t constantly trying to figure out the context every 10 minutes. Some tasks that I usually dred doing so I drag them out over a full day, but by doing them in one chunk I produce almost twice as many as when multitasking.
QUALITY OF WORK: There is no comparison to the video I created yesterday (in terms of music score, editing, video graphics, transitions and visual story) and the video I created today. By doing focussed chunks of research for media, instead of on the fly while doing video editing, meant that I had more time to browse the available footage and images. Not only was I able to compile 3 times as much media when compared with yesterday, the final video was just over 90% longer in play time. My next target from here is to double the length time and produce a marketing video that is 4 minutes in length.
VIDEO COMPRESSION: Found a huge time/cost saving trick today, instead of uploading massive avi video files I did the conversion locally to .flv and shrunk the original version of 2 gigbytes down to a flash movie that is 8.4 megabytes. That not only saves my bandwidth, but also the amount of time it takes me to upload the video and then also for mogul & geiser to distribute.
DISTRIBUTION: Although I didn’t meet my target for today, I only fell short by just one site. Using geiser and mogul, I had my video sent out to 9 video websites with a few clicks of the mouse. That will get easier from here as I now have accounts saved into the software.
Traffic from the video and profiles are directed to a niche website I created in about 2 hours using PLR content and WP. CPA deals are then inserted into the site templates to convert traffic: www.singles-dating.org was the best domain I could find yesterday.
Comment on my video below, it’s really a proof of concept on using stock photography and footage with no voice over. I spent roughly $40 on media to produce the 2 minute video, much quicker and cheaper than outsourcing for a person to do narration. I will start creating videos with voice overs next week then test against the written message version.
It’s the weekend in a few hours, so I think I’ll power off and get some rest.
… or maybe jump back into the editing studio to recut todays video into 2 x 1 minute videos. Then I can quickly upload those thru geiser and mogul to increase todays output to 3 final cut videos.
Okay, so maybe I wont get that last chunk of time free now 
“sidenote: youtube captures 43rd second of video for the still thumbnail. Optimise keyword/headline on that frame to improve click through’s”
“update: video made #9 in google video search results and also youtube, all within 24 hours”
“update: video made it to #1 and #2 spot, now with side by side listing at the top of front page in google video & youtube, all within 4 days”
Video marketing: behind the scenes
Still working in the studio today on video production for a few marketing campaigns. I didn’t get as much produced yesterday as hoped 
I found that multitasking while scripting /editing /producing is not condusive to productivity. When my brain had to deal with so many different subjects, it couldn’t think ahead for all parts and only the current part. This resulted in only 2 test videos being cut and one real video being broadcast at the end of the day.
I made it to tube mogul and traffic geiser at around 11pm (which was earlier than my estimated time of 3am the next morning). The video ended up being broadcast manually through a YouTube account. Received traffic within hours and the video is #1 for it’s keyword and long tail phrase in YouTube results. side note: need to figure out how to also attract comments to help the SEO…
To improve productivity, I’m going to only do chunking tasks today (instead of multitasking) and I will see how much output I have tonight. I just put each chunk into my Google Calendar, which syncs with my iPhone, which then gives me little reminders at each interval so I stick to the schedule and chunking is efficient. › Continue reading
Automated Sales Formula – Day 5
Mid week progress update for the Automated Sales Formula.
Today I’m putting together a 4 minute sales video for one of my information products, I’ll be using everything I learned on ASF to create the reel.
I predict that the scripting will take up to an hour, as I already have sales pages and marketing articles for this project. Very excited that I’m at this part of the program, video is the coolest medium to work on (especially when you can code actions into the flv to increase CTR and opt-ins)
It sounds like everyone that signed up for my coaching club on the Automates Sales Formula bought the program for the same reason : to have automated websites that are premade and simple to install. Welcome to everyone in the club
Sorry the blog went down, all fixed now :)
Firstly, a big thanks to everyone that emailed to let me know that my blog wasn’t displaying any pages.
The pages haven’t gone anywhere, they were hidden accidentally due to some security modifications that I was working on. I neglected to test the public area of my blog without logging out, so everything looked fine. Tut tut, very naughty I know but I promise it won’t happen again and everything is fixed now.
Very sorry for everyone that was trying to read updates and couldn’t get through.

Clickbank Milestone – Just Sold My 100th eBook
clickbank
Woooot. Today was a great day, I finally made it to triple digit sales for one of my ebooks on clickbank!
It seems like so long ago now that I got into information products, but it was only 9 months almost to the day. I’ve read so many books and completed so many training courses since March 2009, that it feels like I absorbed more in that time than my entire high school life.
I probably did actually, as high school was mostly about chasing girls and partying every chance we could get.
Long story short, I was watching a Yanik Silver seminar… it was probably the info players workshop where it’s just him in a small room with a bunch of people. He made everything sound so straight forward and achievable for anyone. I don’t know exactly what it was that attracted me, because I’m a designer by trade and don’t actually enjoy writing content. But when I heard that you can just create an eBook on any subject that is of interest to me, I thought it would be a great way of having something tangible to show at the end of a research process.
I’m always going through research processes, but usually I just walk away with the knowledge and a bunch of new skills. This way, I could compile all of my findings into a coherent publication that was simply exported into PDF format to sell as a digital product. › Continue reading
Automated Sales Formula – Day 4
automated sales formula
Day 4 completed of the Automated Sales Formula, I had a few break throughs today that proved to me that the twitter software works really well. It’s one thing to have a process explained to you and described as working, but it gives you so much confidence when you can make it work for yourself.
I had a play with it over the weekend and setup a new campaign for a very popular twitter trend then sat back expecting to see thousands of unique visitors. I logged in the next day to only find less than 10 impressions. The day after I found that the twitter account I setup for the campaign had been suspended. This is one of those times where you either implode and give up, or you recognise that something wasn’t done correctly and you need to go back through the steps. Of course, I chose the 2nd option and sent Keith a bunch of questions asking for guidance. Even on a Sunday, he got back to me within minutes and helped me through everything I was doing wrong. › Continue reading
The Magic Bullet System – Amish Shah
the magic bullet system
As I write this post, there is about17 hours until Amish Shah launches his highly anticipated ‘Magic Bullet System’. This thing is creating a crazy amount of buzz online, I heard there are over 90,000 people on the pre-purchase list… now considering that there are only 500 copies of the magic bullet system being offered, I’d estimate that it will take somewhere between 3 to 30 minutes to sell out. That will give Amish the fastest $1.5m he’s ever made! That’s only 1/3 of his turnover for last year, but it’s still not bad for a half an hour!
I wanted to pitch in with my own perspective of the system, and at least one thing that isn’t being mentioned in his videos that will catch people by surprise.
First, let’s cover the features and benefits… › Continue reading
What everyone needs to know about the magic bullet system
the magic bullet system
One thing I need to mention, which EVERYONE needs to know about the magic bullet system, is that everything revolves around paid traffic of some type.
Yes it has the ability to create search engine optimised pages, but the power in this software is the ability to rapidly deploy PPC and CPA campaigns with a few clicks within minutes. But you can’t just go out and buy traffic in hundreds of niches without money.
There is a large investment of marketing dollars required if you want to go big, or if you wish to start small with one campaign using the magic bullet system then you can look at spending just a few hundred dollars on traffic. Be aware though, this software isn’t a magic bullet to get you quick, free traffic. It’s a magic bullet to get your niches identified and campaigns setup VERY quickly. › Continue reading
