Facebook Video Viewing Up !
Are you uploading your videos to Facebook yet? Many of our clients have Youtube Channels and show off either their commercial or some off the cuff videos taken on site offering brief clips of education in their field. Youtube has really become more of a search engine for the “how to” seeker in my opinion and the traffic is still far and above other video sites.
Facebook has a videos tab for personal and business pages too! They are far away for creeping up on Youtube although in video views for August they have passed Yahoo and VEVO…. into 2nd place ! Get those videos of your syndicated over to your Facebook account sooner than later.
I usually push clients to YouTube. For search engine purposes and the ability to get analytics per video. I hope Facebook rolls out new analytical functionality for their media soon!
The analytics inside Facebook is coming for sure. Just not sure in what format. Youtube is great for business and often overlooked as a social media hub where interaction/conversations can take place, voting, friending etc.
The draw on facebook is that the traffic and time onsite is so huge… it’s only a matter of time before we see things really explode “over there”
