Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Well, there we are then. I made this video yesterday, had fun doing it, but I guess that's all it is, just a fun little diversion. Thank you for your candor. I certainly did not expect this to be the cornerstone of our marketing efforts, just hoped it may have some value. Clearly , it does not. Video, like all things in life, takes a lot of work and experience to get good at. Again, I appreciate your feedback. This is why I come to SEOMoz, no B.S..

Thank you for the feedback. When you said...

It's basically an advertisement for your company, so I wouldn't expect people to share it or spread it virally.

By that, do you mean that I shouldn't bother to try to promote a promotional video? (I realize this one is too long) but in general, you don't promote advertisement videos for businesses? Are places like TubeMogul a waste of time?

I subscribed to Raven before SEOMoz but I genuinely consider Rand and the rest of you to be the experts. I am learning as I go but I really value your opinions. I just had some fun putting together a website/business promo video. Can I put it on here for legitimate feedback without being accused of spam. I hope so. I'm wondering if the video takes too long to show what it is about, maybe lacks a call to action, or focuses too much on the security.

I think very few people realize how safe a secure transaction reslly is so I made a point of explaining that but may have gone overboard.

I think it's pretty entertaining but I am terribly critical of everything I do, so I would like some expert unbiased opinions.

One more thing, what is the best way to promoe a video like this?

Thank you very much, that makes sense now.

Thank you for the quick response. I guess what I'm still not understanding is:

You said, "If you have enabled canonical tag on your URL to redirect the shadow copies of your webpage to 1 location, it should be fine." I am wondering- if the "enable canonical links" feature on my site is working then should I be able to type in www......./ and see www......../ and type in www.......default.asp and see www......default.asp . Shouldn't one of those be redirected so that both show the same address like  www...../ for example?

I have an online store through hosting service Volusion. I have asked them about this and was told that this is normal. I would like to confirm this with you guys because I'm not convinced of the quality of their customer service and I'm not an expert.

When I check Analytics the landing page that is visited most often is www....../default.asp and the second most visited is www........./     . These are, of course, both my home page. Volusion has radio button that allows the admin to "enable canonical links", which I have enabled,  and they told me that it is normal to see this on google analytics regardless.

When I type in either of those addreses, the homepage comes up as the address that I typed. In other words it doesn't redirect so that it is always the same.

Am I right to be concerned about this?
