Hi Iris,
I assume you're on wordpress if you use yoast, but if it's the only video on your website you can also create your own sitemaps. Please read this post by Phil Nottingham -> http://www.distilled.net/blog/video/creating-video-sitemaps-for-each-video-hosting-platform/ . It shows how to create video sitemaps for all platforms, including Vimeo.

Choosing a video hoster for a website
Hi guys, I would love to hear your opinion about which video hoster is recommendable for embedding videos on a website and why? So far, I can't decide between Youtube, Vimeo and Wistia. Youtube: + large community, snippets in Google - advertisements Vimeo: + appealing look - small audience Wistia: + easy to customize, statistics - no community, no snippets in Google Thanks in advance for any input! Benjamin

What is the best way to host a video on my site from a SEO perspective?
Hi, we are in the process of creating a video about a topic that is highly relevant for our customers. Once it is completed we want to offer the video to our customers so that they can embed it into their own websites for free. What is the best way to do this and still receive maximum SEO juice? If we use a a video service like youtube or vimeo, then the link will go to vimeo or youtube and not our site. One thing we are thinking about is asking our customers to link to our site in return for embedding the video, but if there is an automatic solution then this would be a lot better. Any tips will be highly appreciated! If you have anyother tips regarding video content then the same of course! Many thanks! Daan

Multiple Location Pages and Duplicate/Thin Content
I have a client who has 10 locations throughout Colorado. Each has it's own claimed Google Places profile. I know that Google is encouraging a unqiue page on your site for each individual office location, and then aligning each location's page with it's Google Places profile. Could this create a duplicate content or thin content issue though? Each location's page on the site would have essentially the same or similar content -- just with a unique address and phone number. They're a law firm, so the company information is the same across all locations, other than the address and phone number. We could re-write the content so it's not completely the same, but for 10 locations that gets a little crazy, and still doesn't create truly unique/original content. If we get too creative with the content on each page, it would be counterproductive because these are landing pages so i want them to have the firm's major selling points to help convert. Also, the firm is ranking very well in organic and blended/local search for Colorado terms and all individual locations EXCEPT Denver, the biggest and most important market by far. Trying to move from page 3 to page 1 in Denver is important enough to warrant making the necessary changes. I just don't want to damage all the progress we've already made. I look forward to your feedback! Thanks!

Home address for service professionals?
I often work with people who are in service industries who do not have a business address (dog sitters, pilates teachers, personal trainers, house cleaners). They often work by going into someone's home to provide the service. However in some of these industries independent contractors compete with businesses who have a brick and mortar location. This presents an SEO challenge when a serp features a 7-pack of local business. When I search "masseuse" I get a 7-pack after a Wikipedia result, and a merriam-webster result. So being in the 7-pack is essential for any real traffic for the term. One solution to this problem is to have the contractors use their home address for their Google places listing, Yelp, etc. Is this a good idea? I'm a little worried about this technique because these independent contractors don't actually bring clients into their homes. Also it would be misleading if someone was searching for a place to go to get a massage instead of having someone come to their home. But the presence of 7pack in a serp really puts these people at an unfair advantage. Would you use a home address? Do you have any other suggestions as to how to level the playing field in these cases?

Local Search - New Business - 4 different Erroneous, Unverified Google Places Pages
My client is a new business <1 year old. Google has 4 unverified places pages for this business - all have slight errors in the business name and address. Which one should I claim? Will Google let me change the business name once I verify ownership? How will I get rid of the other listings once I claim and correct one of them? In light of these data errors and/or as a general rule do you recommend the paid submission services for UBL and Localeze (http://getlisted.org/resources/why-listing-services.aspx)? Thanks for the help! Jeff
