Did you just make a video and now it’s up to you to distribute it? If so, you know it's difficult to decide what to do next. Many people have found success by using a strategy that includes clear action steps. So, here you go.
1. Post to Vimeo and YouTube
Vimeo is a great hosting platform that allows you to share links without ads. Plans are free to begin and then start at less than $10 a month, which is worth it if you want to avoid losing your customers attention to YouTube or deal with forced ads. YouTube is the second largest search engine in the world. If your goal is to reach the most people with your video, you need to have a YouTube presence.
Take Action: I recommend posting to vimeo first and use the link on your own website. Then, post your video to YouTube. Check out the quickstart guide from YouTube to get started. Make sure the cards at the end of your video re-direct people to your website and other videos. YouTube will suggest other videos to the viewer, you want to have enough content to keep them on your channel.
