It looks like some 'Black Hat' strategies that internet marketers have used have caught up with them as there is a new YouTube slap that marketers have recently experience. If you're thinking of building your business integrating YouTube into your marketing efforts, you'll want to make sure you read on so you know what to avoid!
For anyone who is marketing online and has put time and effort into building a YouTube profile and a following, this new YouTube Slap is going to hit hard for some. I think it's important to learn from others mistakes so we don't fall into the same trap.
One of the main reasons why Internet Marketers YouTube account have been suspended is because of DUPLICATE CONTENT.
One of the 'super secret' strategies that has been implemented by internet marketers, is to create a video in such a way where it was specific on a topic, but generic enough to be posted on many different profiles. Let me explain.
Basically what you could do is create a number of different profiles on YouTube and post the same video to all of them. Sounds like a great idea doesn't it? Well, it was a pretty good idea for as long as it was working.
But you know what, Google is just too damn smart! They are able to track all the different videos that are out there (and remember Google owns YouTube) and if they find that there is duplicate content being posted; this is NOT and good thing. You will eventually experience what's being call the YouTube Slap. There has even been mention that Google has Voice Recognition software for their videos. Kind of scary hey?
So the lesson that we can all learn from this is to not publish duplicate content out there on the internet. It is just not worth the risk. So it looks like a few internet marketers are going to have to change up their strategy. There are so many ways we can build a home Business and I've made some Fatal Mistakes along the way.
