Now that Universal Search has disappeared is it preferable to host videos on YouTube?

What would be the benefits of self hosting and using a service such as wistia?

Updating Youtube Videos: Does this Reset Your Views to 0?

Hello Moz Community, Our team is looking to update a few videos in our Youtube channel but are concerned that doing so will reset the current amount of views to 0 once the change has been made. Would anyone happen to know if this happens or if the views remain the same? Also, how do the updates to the videos affect rank and visibility? Thank you all for your help.

YouTube keyword research suggestion tool

Is the https://www.youtube.com/keyword_tool the best solution for researching keywords to help with your YT descriptions and tags etc ? I'm finding that huge numbers of the keyword ideas suggested by this tool are being listed as 'Not Enough Data' Should you ignore them, or because they are being suggested they are being used but just not much ? Any other resources for kw research for YT ? cheers dan

Videos - Host on our Site or YouTube or Both

Hi We are redesigning our site and going to post how to videos on some of our product pages.
For SEO purposes I want to post the videos on our site with a video transcription either self hosting or through Wistia. Can we also post the same videos on YouTube or is that duplicate content and will we get hurt somehow? Thanks.

Google Carousel - What Should We Now Be Doing Differently?

Google Carousel is rolling out for even more topics. How does it affect or change tracking in Google Analytics? For example, if I am in the Carousel and someone clicks my listing, then Google completes a search for my property… then the searcher clicks through to my site organically. Will I know that someone originally clicked the Carousel or will I have no idea and simply see a Google organic click? Should we be optimizing our Google+ Places listings differently? How does this change our own organic keyword targeting? In other words, if I am in the Carousel should I go after a different keyword organically? Does anyone know how many people are clicking into the Carousel vs. the organic listings or even pay per click below? Searchers behavior will be altered because of this change. What say you all?

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
