Video Marketing - Who will host them
-
Hey guys,
I'd like to get going with video marketing and our product best matched with video.
I have these things that I am not sure on what direction to take...
1. We have youtube, vimeo and our website.
*What goes to what? Or vimeo embedded in website and youtube as is?
*A video transcription should be done in the website to help search engines right?
*Isnt it duplicate if its in youtube and another one embedded in the site from vimeo?
Your thoughts and rationale will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Jac

Already ranking high for blog, should I produce video?
I run a website with affiliate links (reviews) and successful YouTube channel. Most of the time we lost the YouTube video review and text review at the same time. I’ve created a couple posts that rank high without a video. But now they are proving to be successful, I’m wondering if it makes sense to now produce a video. If so, do I use the exact keyword? Or a variation? Only about 10% of our YouTube views come from Google Search. Most of our blog traffic is organic.

Are there any negative side affects to posting the same video to both YouTube & Vimeo
I had heard that Google frowns upon duplicate content so if I were to post the same videos to both YouTube, Vimeo and others, could that have some kind of negative impact, such as the video showing up lower in the SERPs?
