Online Video Marketing gets businesses on the 1st page of Google
The Results Speak For Themselves : Online Video Marketing Works!
In business, statistics and marketing trends are important, but nothing counts as much as results. As they say; you can talk the talk, but can you walk the walk?
In online video marketing, the first sign that your campaign is yielding results will be the improvement on your online visibility. On that matter we at Video SEO Pro have had some amazing success stories that we would like to share with you today.
MAHOPAC MARINE
One of our first clients was a marina in Mahopac NY, the Mahopac Marine. This was an original video created by us, a fact that greatly improves the optimization process; our process is always based upon an extensive keyword research to identify the main search terms being used by potential clients when looking for products or services being offered by companies similar to our client’s.
By creating the company video with these keywords in mind we automatically increase the chances of it ranking higher on the web. Based on our research we picked the keywords “boats for sale and repair in NY”. Back in October 2013, if you typed these keywords, Mahopac Marine wasn’t even close to the first page. Less than 3 weeks after we created the video and started our video SEO process, these were the results: First place on the first page for that same search, among 35 Million results!!

TELEPARTS
Teleparts, a company in New Jersey that sells heavy duty truck parts to clients all over the world hired us to improve their almost inexistent Internet presence. The main keywords that came up on our keyword research were “original US heavy duty truck parts”, since they only sell American manufacturers original parts.
The results were… heavy, to say the least! After 2 weeks of video SEO, if you searched for “Original US Truck Parts” (even without the “heavy duty”), the results were amazing: First place on the first page among 155 million results! (Click Here to see that search)
B2B CLEANING SERVICES
Many of our clients are small and medium businesses trying to succeed on a local level, and many times they are competing with companies that are much bigger and with comfortable marketing budgets that allow them to be very visible on the Internet. B2B Cleaning Services from Yonkers NY is a small and very effective office cleaning company competing with several giants in their region, and they hired us to increase their visibility online so they can attract more potential clients.
The task wasn’t easy due to their competition, but after less than two months we got them there:first place on the first page of Google among 454 Thousand Results for the keywords “Office Cleaning Service Yonkers NY”, surpassing all their much larger competitors. (Click Here to see the search)
As you can see, the results indeed speak for themselves.

BORN TO CLEAN
We tend to think about certain professions as more “glamorous” or “fun” than others. Having worked on television and documentaries for most of my life, people would many times say “wow, that’s a fun job” when they heard what I did for a living. I would usually shrug and say “well, it’s a job, you know. Sometimes it’s fun and sometimes it’s not…” but people didn’t really believe me.
On the other hand, a job like cleaning offices would be classified by most people as “not fun”. I though so too, until I met Annie Berrios.
Annie and her husband Jimmy own a small office cleaning company in Yonkers NY called B2B Cleaning Services. They hired us to do a video about their company and from the very beginning I was worried about the ways we could make them stand out. What can they offer that would compete with these giant cleaning companies that dominate their region? What makes them special?
I have to admit that I was biased regarding cleaning companies as well. It seemed to me that it would be difficult to make an interesting video about that subject. I was afraid it would be boring.
As part of our video marketing campaigns we always interview the business owners. Jimmy told me that he would do most of the talking because he was more comfortable in front of the camera, because Annie was a bit nervous about that. Jimmy did a good job in his interview, and when we got to Annie’s interview my main goal was to make her comfortable and see what happen, but I didn’t have a lot of expectations. Boy, was I wrong!
I really love hearing other people’s stories. What excites me the most is the reason people choose to do what they do. Annie was pretty nervous in the beginning, but when I asked her why she does what she does she suddenly said “well, I would go to people’s houses and start cleaning without them asking. Its' a passion. I think I was born cleaning!”
At that moment I knew that their video would be great and that it would make a difference. It was clear to me that if a business owner looking for a cleaning company for his office would see this video, he would say “if she loves cleaning so much, she’ll do a great job for me!”
There are no dull jobs. They are only dull if you make them so, if you don’t have passion for what you do. It doesn’t have to be glamorous; it just has to be TRUE.
Thank you Annie for being such an inspiration!

Neco Turkienicz and David Vogel at WVOX Radio Studios
At Video SEO Pro we are all about visual communication, but last week we did something different. Marsha Gordon, the President and CEO of the Business Council of Westchester (of which we are proud members) invited us to her weekly program on WVOX Radio, "Westchester Means Business". She wanted her viewers to know more about Online Video Marketing and how video is helping businesses get found on the 1st page of Google, and we were more than thrilled to help her with that.
We are used to being behind the camera not live on the radio, but Marsha was a wonderful host and made us feel very comfortable. So if you are interested in learning more about our video marketing strategies, how to get your company ranked on the 1st page of Google and a bit about my partner David Vogel and me, click below to hear the interview.

Video SEO Gets Businesses on The 1st Page of Google: Video SEO Pro's Success Stories
The Results Speak For Themselves
In business, statistics and marketing trends are important, but nothing counts as much as results. As they say; you can talk the talk, but can you walk the walk?
In online marketing the first sign that your campaign is yielding results will be the improvement on your online visibility. On that matter we at Video SEO Pro have had some amazing success stories that I would like to share with you today.
CERTA PRO PAINTERS
We were approached by the owners of a CertaPro Painters franchise serving various towns in Westchester County, NY, as well as Stamford and Greenwich CT. They asked us to use our video SEO techniques to get an existing video of theirs on the first page of Google.
In 7 weeks the results were impressive: his video was now at the first page of Google for that specific search, out of 1.4 million results! Well, not only on the first page, but on the first place of that first page, right below the paid ads that are usually ignored by most Internet users (Click Here to see that search).
MAHOPAC MARINE
Stimulated by that first result we embarked on another online video marketing campaign, this time for a marina in Mahopac NY, the Mahopac Marine. This time the video was created by us, a fact that greatly improves the optimization process; our process is always based upon an extensive keyword research to identify the main search terms being used by potential clients when looking for products or services being offered by companies similar to our client’s.
By creating the company video with these keywords in mind we automatically increase the chances of it ranking higher on the web.

Using Online Video Marketing for Your Business
Truck Parts, Brown Boxes and Video Marketing
How Video SEO Pro created a sexy online video marketing campaign for Teleparts using the most unlikely materials
Using Online Video Marketing to grow your business can be very difficult task; It doesn’t matter if you make a good cup of coffee or own an international exporting company. Each business has a different story to tell and every once in a while we come across an online video marketing project that presents us with some unique challenges. Our latest project for a client in New Jersey is a perfect example.
Teleparts sells original heavy duty US truck parts to customers all over the world. They contacted us because they needed to increase the visibility of their company through online marketing. Their website was never optimized for video, keywords…or anything really, and thus didn’t even show up for the most basic search like “heavy duty truck parts”. As much as online video marketing is not a substitute for proper website SEO, it was clear to us that online video marketing would be the quickest, most effective and affordable way to get Teleparts found on the first page of Google.
Ok, so what was the unique challenge? Well, the main feature of a company that sells truck parts is a warehouse full of brown boxes. Not very sexy to say the least.
So how do you create an engaging video out of this clearly dull environment?
First, we needed to make the best use of what we had. We decided to stage the warehouse by rearranging the boxes and crates into nice aisles and removing some of the more impressive parts from their boxes to make the shots more visually interesting.
Second, we used our storytelling skills to create an engaging story around the fact that Teleparts sells only original heavy duty truck parts. We used the dictionary definition of the word “original” as a starting point: “The first and genuine form of something, from which others are derived”. Therefore, all the rest are imitations, and everybody knows that genuine equipment is always better than copies.
Third, we used our editing and motion graphics skills to make some movie magic, weaving a compelling narrative that brought everything together, created an engaging informative video and made the visuals look like a million dollars. Considering what we had to work with, we believe we were able to take something mundane and turn it into something quite interesting.
This project proved that it’s always best to think outside the “brown” box!!

Video SEO Pro uses online video marketing to promote food business
Lately our business are cookin! No, I mean literally cooking! So we did a cooking video? Yes indeed.
I personally love to cook, so when Jeannie Calderon from TheSocialBites.com reached out to us with the idea of producing an online cooking video with Chef Melissa DiMaio, I was thrilled by the opportunity to use video marketing and video SEO for a food business.
TheSocialBites.com is a website that works as source for local restaurant reviews in Westchester County NY and discounts on local goods and services. They decided to promote their in-home cooking classes by spreading some cooking knowledge to their followers, so that people will not only learn of good places to eat, but how to prepare the food that they like to eat…
We spent a few hours learning how to prepare Chicken Pot Pie and Apple Crumb Pie, shooting with 3 coordinated cameras. Our GoPro camera worked extra hours getting incredible overhead shots of the cooking happening on the stovetop.
The experience was… full-“filling”, to say the least. When we were done, we got to eat the delicious pies Melissa prepared, and I highly recommend the recipes. You can download the recipes on their website at TheSocialBites.com .
Take a look at the video below and learn how to make these savory and sweet pies. If you like to cook, it’s quite simple to prepare, and even if you don’t cook it’s mouth watering to watch.
