Online video – can it increase traffic to your website?

In the last few years the increase in video online has been staggering. Is this because businesses like the idea of having something to show on their site? Well I think not.

I recently read that online video is projected to increase by 700% in the next 3 years, and a staggering 90% of all internet traffic will be related to video! So in answer to the question, I think its because businesses are realising they need to be internet savvy and also adaptable to the changes in the way people purchase goods and services.

I also read that getting your website on the front page of Google is 53 times more likely with good video optimisation, visitors to a site are 85% more likely to purchase after viewing a video, 96% of online shoppers watch video and a third of online retailers prioritised adding video to their websites last year!

So its very important that once you have decided to have a video online that its produced in the correct way to gain the results you want. Nothing will turn your potential clients away quicker than a badly produced film that doesn’t engage with them, so make sure you get it right the first time, as online shoppers are a quick to change pages if they don’t like what they see!
