The next test I chose the keyword ‘2013 top seo tips’ which also referred to an article that is still a work in progress for me. Note: I noticed that YouTube Videos that were not Google+ Hangout’s that I uploaded took significantly longer to be indexed and show up in the SERPs. Therefore I wanted to try another test with a keyword that had a tad more competition and already had a video rich snippet on the first page of Google. A quick further analysis showed that the video rich snippets and videos that showed in Google’s SERPS are also ranked #1 in YouTube. I was number one of course since there was no competition.
Once I was ranked for this keyword I went to YouTube to see where my ranking stood on their search engine. It’s important to note that this particular keyword had no exact matches, mainly because people must not think I’m awesome. Twenty four hours later my video was in the number one position with no link building.
Within one minute I was indexed and on the first page in the #9 position for my keyword. After the video was complete I wrote a quick description and conducted a search for my keyword setting the location to “United States” to prevent localized result influence. I did the broadcast option on Google+ Hangouts and named the title of the video my Keyword “Casey Meraz is Awesome”. My website was number one before I started this test and there were NO video results on the first page. My keyword was Casey Meraz is Awesome which had basically zero competition with 1.5 million results in the SERPS. I decided to use a low competition Keyword which included my name. I started with the intention of seeing how link juice is passed through videos (which will be another post).
GOOGLE HANGOUTS VIDEO TEST SERIES
Recently I conducted a series of video tests where I streamed some videos through Google+ Hangouts and also uploaded some of them manually to test the difference. Do Hangouts Help With Website Rankings? A Simple Test This becomes more of a priority since their indexation rate appears to be much faster than a traditional YouTube Upload. This is a problem because when I’m trying to create good content it’s important that people can understand what I’m saying. I recently created a video and had much more bandwidth than was required to stream the video, but when it was complete the video skipped many of my words. Google always pushes for the best user experience (or so they say) and yet these videos have some bad lag. My biggest complaint with Google+ Hangouts is the lag. Are There Any Downsides?Įvery product on the market seems to have a downside. Another benefit is that you can do screen shares to create presentations and show a live feed of what you are doing on your screen to your hangout participants. Once its finished it becomes a regular YouTube video where you can play back the video, edit the video, and more. One of the main advantages of this outside the ability to do a live video chat is the fact that you can actually broadcast this video live to YouTube and reach a wide audience.
GOOGLE HANGOUTS VIDEO TEST DOWNLOAD
Unlike the video alternatives out there like Skype, Google+ Hangouts is free for group video chat and only requires 1mbps/ 2mbps of your bandwidth for a group video chat and 1mbps/ 1mpbs upload and download to broadcast yourself. When you do one of these, Google calls it a “Hangout”. Google+ hangouts are a service offered by Google+ where you can conduct a group video chat with up to ten people at once. As you hear more about Google+ Hangouts from Google’s advertising campaigns you may be wondering to yourself, what exactly are Google+ Hangouts and do they have any practical SEO benefits? Here, I’ll dive into these topics and also explain some interesting testing I have done that can help you take up more real estate in Google’s search results using G+ Hangouts.
