Youtube Social Blog - how to set this up?
-
I noticed that some sites have a specific section on Youtube, under the structure youtube.com/social/blog, which contains backlinks to the site. For example, this Twilight blog: http://www.youtube.com/social/blog/twilightish
I've had trouble finding out information about this. Is this auto-generated by Youtube, or can someone set this up?

One thing you can try is reaching out to your Adwords Account team (or reach out to Google and request an Adwords Acct Manager, if you don't already have one). They are often able to get you additional Youtube perks.

Joe is right. Its a volume/popularity game at that point. If its a hot topic, with lots of different views going on, Youtube and Google will do different things with the content. I have also noticed that these videos will get on the first 3 results in google (they get promoted above other content).
All you can do (as far as I know) is set up your own custom page on youtube.

Hi,
It looks like you don't get it so much as google deems that your content is worthy of it. The official name right now is 'As Seen On' YouTube Pages'

Can you get rich snippets for Youtube hosted videos?
My website has several videos, mostly product reviews and tutorials. I'd like for these videos to show in the SERPs with rich snippets, but I am hosting them through Youtube. What is your experience with Youtube hosted videos? Do they generate rich snippets? Or will Google always rank the Youtube video over your web page?

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

Setting Up Localized City Pages and Duplicate Content issues
We are setting up landing pages on our site that will cater to specific cities, in an effort to be more relevant to the users in those cities and also capture more localized traffic. These regional pages will each have a unique paragraph at the top, but below that is a sentence or two about each product line that would be difficult to rewrite with quality more than 10 - 15 times. Would the paragraph at the top of the page be enough unique content (about 4-5 sentences)? Obviously the duplicate content wouldn't be to my advantage, but is it really necessary to rewrite the other sentences about the product lines? What's the most efficient method to complete this project in a whitehat fashion?

URL redirect to a YouTube Channel?
Hey all, We recently ran a video content contest on a micro site and we generated some links for the URL. In December we are planning on doing a redirect of the domain to our YouTube channel where all of the videos hosted. My question is how much SEO benefit will there be by redirecting to our YouTube channel vs redirecting to a single video from the contest. Does the strength of the channel as whole affect the videos in that channels ability to rank on YouTube and in SERPs? The other option is to just redirect the URL to our product page on our main website, but to me that doesn't seem like it would provide the best user experience 🙂 If anyone has experience with this kind of an issue I'd appreciate your feedback. Thanks!
