Importance of Video

Most know that YouTube is owned by Google. However, most don’t know that YouTube – with its 2.3 billion users worldwide, is the second largest search engine on the planet. Not Yahoo, Bing, DuckDuckGo, etc…

79 percent of Internet users have their own YouTube account. They watch a lot of video. Almost 5 billion videos are watched on YouTube every single day.

9 out of 10 in the US consume digital video content.

Much of the video content is short, under 10 minutes. However, under 2 minutes and under 5 minutes are sweet spots that get the most views, depending on the subject and content.

Stories sell.

Be the press. Be the broadcaster. You are now the media. Your brand stories can be your marketing power.
