VIDEOS
They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Well, what about 25-30 images per second that create motion and a reality that nearly everybody will passively sit and absorb? In the developed countries, all people under the age of 80 have been exposed to television for around 60 or more years!
Video content distribution, via the Internet to desktop and laptop computers, smartphones and other mobile devices is inexpensive and ubiquitous. Users almost expect to see some video.
Currently 48 hours of video is uploaded to YouTube every minute! (2012 Jan).
That means that it would take you 8 years of your life to watch what is uploaded to YouTube in just one day.
That's not including Google Video, DailyMotion, Vimeo, Veoh, MySpace, MetaCafe, all the world's TV Networks and all the other hundreds of sites with video.
Broadcast Your Video to the World
Okay, so much of it may be trivial and rubbish, but all the biggest corporations on the planet and all the smart marketers around are using video on the Internet.
What better and cheaper way is there to promote Tourism products and services?
Make it engaging, make it subtle and show what you want the potential tourist to see and experience.
Another important aspect of this is that you are not trying to get your message across in 15 seconds (like TV adverts), to an impatient audience, who will fast forward, or go to the bathroom, ignoring your message, followed by a succession of other commercials they will also ignore.
These visitors found your site and are voluntarily looking at your video for information… they are already qualified prospects.
