New SEO Technique Drives Couples to Renegade Marriage Doctor





Summary: Marriage counselor Dr. Max Vogt reveals the innovative search engine optimization (SEO) method he used to dramatically increase traffic to his marriage counseling Website.

San Diego, California - February 27, 2007 - When self proclaimed "renegade" marriage counselor Dr. Max Vogt heard about a new method being used by early adopting entrepreneurs to attract Website traffic, he figured he had nothing to lose.

"I was getting a pitiful eight unique visitors a day at my main site," Vogt recalls. "Then I discovered Traffic Geyser (http://www.TrafficGeyser.com). Within a week my traffic increased to 200 unique visitors a day and the number just keeps climbing."

At first, Vogt was skeptical when he realized Traffic Geyser uses Internet videos to generate its results.

"Like most business people, I felt overwhelmed by the technical aspects of creating video, editing it, formatting it and then the daunting idea of actually submitting it to relevant places. But boy, was I ever surprised!"

Vogt jokes he's one of those technologically-challenged people who got his college science credits by taking courses like "Physics for Poets." However, he's found a user-friendly tool for regular business people in Traffic Geyser.

"It includes a complete, simple course that takes you step by step through the process of creating and submitting videos the easiest way possible," Vogt explains. "It opens the door for absolutely everyone to get the powerful advantages of using video. Honest to goodness, if I can do it, so can you."

Click play to watch his complete explanation:






"In eight days I added several hundred very targeted subscribers who found me through videos I posted. And because of the direct and very personal aspect of video, the majority of these subscribers have bought one or more of my relationship books or courses."

Vogt is so pleased with his results he is offering to share his experiences and personally speak with interested business people who contact him through his www.MarriageBlueprint.com Website.

Traffic Geyser uses a combination of the top 35 Internet video sites, blogging and Web 2.0 social bookmarking to drive Website traffic and SEO.

SEO, Traffic or Brand?

Businesses are discovering the benefits of Internet video but some are reticent about the millieu and what it might mean to their brand.

The Danish bank communications manager's comments in this story likely exemplify many "mainstream" companies' uncertainty about how to play in the online video game.

Some are conflicted about whether they should lower their production quality standards in favor of quick distribution and contextual acceptance. For example, they are uncomfortable about promoting their companies in the style of typical user-generated YouTube videos. On the other hand, they wonder whether their well-financed productions will seem too slick and out of place in the same arena.

From our perspective, they're completely missing the point. Or they're thinking too inside the box.

The Internet is not television. Online viewers don't have high expectations. They accept a broad range of production values--from a Webcam's grainy fisheye to the professionally composed episodes of their favorite TV shows now streaming online.

They also accept a broad range of content and performances. Internet video viewers are now used to seeing real people on screen, not actors. Tight scripts are nice but we'll tolerate off the cuff as well.

Businesses don't have to change what they're producing to reap benefits from the new video-rich Internet. But they will miss out on a lot of opportunities if they don't broaden their thinking.

For example, there are few companies that would not benefit enormously from producing their own Internet TV shows focusing on their customers' needs and interests. Professional productions are possible for a fraction of what it used to cost and the media buys are, well...non-existent. There are no stations or networks to negotiate with online if you don't want to.

It's a brave new world of marketing online. You don't need a multi-million dollar ad budget or a top 20 ad agency to generate SEO, Website traffic or even brand loyalty. There are so many more affordable, creative ways to use video online than 30-second commercials.

Internet Videos Boost Website Traffic 60%, Drive Top SEO Results

Summary: Here's more proof Web video can drive visitors and SEO: Online marketer David Frey used Internet videos and the new Traffic Geyser submitter service to increase visitors to his marriage counseling site by more than 60% in three weeks and achieved a #1 Google search ranking for his target keyword phrase.

San Diego, California 92128 – February 8, 2007 – When Internet entrepreneur and small business guru David Frey decided to leverage online video in his marketing, his first attempts didn't go so well.

"My videos looked terrible and they didn't sound too good," Frey explains. "Then I got the Toolkit, along with some coaching on the lighting setup, the audio and the call to action. My latest videos are much more watchable—and more effective."

The "Toolkit" is the Internet Infomercial Toolkit, a multimedia instructional package that teaches businesses how to sell with video.

Frey adds, "Once I improved my videos, I wanted to use them to drive traffic to my sites, including MarriageAdvice.com. Luckily, I found Traffic Geyser."

Traffic Geyser is a fledgling service for businesses that distributes their Internet videos to more than 30 top sites with the click of a button and leverages Web 2.0 features to drive Website traffic and SEO.

Frey was so pleased with the results he achieved with Traffic Geyser he produced video newsletters for his 50,000 small business subscribers describing the process he used to generate hundreds of thousands of impressions and boost traffic by 60% to MarriageAdvice.com—over just three weeks.

Go here to view David Frey's video newsletter where he recaps his entire strategy.

One key tactic is to optimize the videos' titles and descriptions with your keyword or phrase, almost as if you are creating miniature Web sites. "Fortunately, with Traffic Geyser, you only have to enter your title and description once for each video," Frey says. "Then the system uploads that information to more than 30 top video sites. It's a huge time-saver."
