Video Sitemap
-
Anyone know of an effective program to create video sitemaps. I just used pro xmlsitemaps.com and only two of my many videos showed up in the sitemap

thanks very much Phil, the link was extremely useful

Hi Brett,
I'm afraid i haven't yet found a program that scales sitemap creation effectively or accurately. If you're hosting with Wistia, then they have a great app which does it automatically for you. Alternatively, it should be easy to put one together with Google's guide: http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=80472
Or i have built a basic template here: http://www.distilled.net/blog/video/getting-video-results-in-google/

I used the pro model of what you mentioned and it did not detect the majority of my videos

Have you tried XML-Sitemap's video sitemap generator? It detect the embedded videos and creates the sitemap automatically.
It isn't free, though... $10 for the basic XML sitemap generator and an extra $5 for the video sitemap generator.

Using syndicated content / videos
Hi all, We are looking at using some syndicated video content on our main category pages. We are an pharmacy and offer prescription medicines (Yes we are NHS registered and no we don't sell generic products). I want to use the videos to increase the UX for the category pages and increase stickiness......however i am a little worried about how Google will see this. We don't have the time or budget to create our own videos but the rest of the content around them is all ours. The videos are provided by the NHS so they are good quality content and should add value to the consumer. Will big G stiff us for doing this?

Question about Google News Sitemap
I'm submitting my site to Google News, have a few questions for creating my sitemap. The majority of my articles (800) are in a category called 'Disability News' (which is one of my main keywords). Around half of these posts are we're automated RSS feed posts (first 200 words of an article directly copied with a link thru to the original). The past few weeks I've been posting tons of unique content so I was thinking about moving all duplicate content into a category called 'Syndicated News' and excluding that from my Google News sitemap. Is this advisable? or should I just leave it as is?

Duplicate Content - Video
I recently noticed a drop in rankings for my site shortly after the new algorithm update. I'm not sure exactly why rankings went down, but would like to know if it has to do with having videos on our site that do not belong to us. We have a few videos on product pages that the manufacturer of the product had created. I was wondering if Google maybe thinks we are maliciously stealing these videos or something and penalizing us for it. And if stuff like this has anything to do with the recent algorithm update. We make our own videos, but some of our manufacturer's videos are just better... and they work with us and are glad for us to have their videos listed. Thanks in advance
