How Using Camtasia Videos Can Increase Your Affiliate Commissions
By Brian Terry on Tuesday, November 6th, 2007If you’ve been online for any length of time already I’m sure you would have visited YouTube.com by now.
YouTube is without question one of the most visited websites on the Internet so being able to tap into this incredible stream of free traffic is an absolute must for any Big Selling Affiliate.
The possibilities for video are endless, you can video yourself talking, you can record a slide show, you can even record everything you do on your screen.
Your video can be funny, serious or just plane crazy, it doesn’t even have to look like a “slick” TV station production or Steven Spielberg film. In fact it all adds to your believability of you as a regular guy on the street and not some big faceless corporation.
So how do you get started?
All you need is a copy of Camtasia Studio which you can get with a free 30 day trial right here:

Or you could even use a digital camera to create a short 3 minute presentation, it all depends on your idea.
With Camtasia the you can do things like record demonstrations of a product live from your computer, or you could record a slide show you created in PowerPoint that gives people some great advice on how to do something really specific.
Do you need a website?
It helps but it’s not always necessary, because all you do is create your video using Camtasia add your affiliate url to the video opening and closing screens, save it in a format YouTube accepts, upload it to YouTube (or any other video hosting service), write an interesting and compelling description for your video, chose your keywords and you’re done.
What then happens then is when people search for the keywords you’ve chosen your video will show up in the search results pages. They then read your description, if it catches their eye they’ll watch your video and hopefully visit the website through the affiliate link you added to your video.
The truth is anyone can create stunning videos, from multimedia tutorials and step-by-step presentations available online. The process is like having your customers seated next to you and looking at your desktop, as you show them the things they need to see and hear. All this done step by step.
Once you’ve created your video here’s a free online service that will enable you to submit your new video to dozens of other video hosting website (including YouTube)…
