			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Video on your website is essential, but what about all the other sites where Internet users are already watching video?</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Media Samurai establishes your brand on major video sharing sites with a consistent message and design. We then optimize your video using our industry leading video SEO (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Search_engine_optimization" target="_blank">Search Engine Optimization</a>) techniques and distribute it across your newly created online profiles.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">Video SEO is the quickest way to reach the first page of search engine rankings with multiple first page results. </span></p>
<h3><strong><span style="font-size: medium;">Some Sites In Our Network:</span></strong></h3>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: medium;">YouTube</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: medium;">MySpace Video</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: medium;">Yahoo Video</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: medium;">Metacafe</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: medium;">Kewego</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: medium;">Dailymotion</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: medium;">And more…</span></li>
</ul>
<h3><strong><span style="font-size: medium;">Case Study: Shook&#8217;s Tire &amp; Quick Lube</span></strong></h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;">We received great results for one of our most recent clients Shook&#8217;s Tire, an Automotive maintenance and repair company. We produced and distributed 6 different videos for Shook&#8217;s Tire and used video SEO to target keywords related to their business.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;">We were able to achieve first page organic Google search results on 36 different keyword phrases including “<a href="http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&amp;q=Oil+Change+Asheville&amp;sourceid=navclient-ff&amp;rlz=1B5_____enUS328US328&amp;ie=UTF-8">Oil Change Asheville</a>“, “<a href="http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&amp;rlz=1B5_____enUS328US328&amp;q=Tires+Asheville&amp;aq=f&amp;oq=&amp;aqi=g1">Tires Asheville</a>“,  “<a href="http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&amp;rlz=1B5_____enUS328US328&amp;q=Oil+Change+Asheville+NC&amp;aq=f&amp;oq=&amp;aqi=">Oil Change Asheville NC</a>“, and more.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Here is a screen shot of the Google results for “oil change asheville nc”, ours are highlighted in <span style="color: #ff0000;">red</span> :</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-119" title="Asheville Oil Change Screen Shot" src="http://mediasamurai.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Picture-5.jpg" alt="Asheville Oil Change Screen Shot" width="570" height="452" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;">We were able to capture multiple positions on the first page of the Google search results. It is also worth noting that over time, the video results will show up with a video thumbnail which is the only way to get an image representing your business on Google’s search results.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Video distribution is a very powerful way to get your business in front of potential customers. For an even more powerful and targeted method, look towards online video advertising.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><strong>Creating  a successful YouTube marketing campaign</strong> seems hard to measure, it needs  blood, sweat and tears. While ad agencies are scrambling to find the  elusive formula to take an online video to be a surefire hit, few souls  succeed. This weeks YouTube marketing champion uses a tried and tested  formula: <strong>Cute Babies and a Bizarre Situation</strong>. The  video has solidified its position which ranks 3rd overall on You Tube  this week has garnered nearly 3 million total You Tube views as of the  writing.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><br />
</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"> Meanwhile,  ad age&#8217;s viral video chart [which uses visible measures web wide video  tracking to rank online ads] Ranks the clip in 2nd place on the wider  web this week, being eclipse to the top spot by the return of Air New  Zealand&#8217;s &#8220;Body Paint&#8221; Ad. That ad uses a more provocative  hook: Young cabin crew and pilots with their uniforms painted on.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"> While  viewers are asking how did they get those figures, and rankings, visible  measures explained their side through, visible measures methodology:  The company tracks 150 video sites [including You Tube], and tracks  multiple posting on the same clip. Their numbers count the Evian babies  ad collecting up to 1,845,389 views so far this week compared to 3,978,561  views for the resurgent Air New Zealand Ad.</span></span></p>
