Introduction To Affiliate Marketing With Free YouTube Videos.

Affiliate marketing with free YouTube videos is no “secret” strategy. However, many beginner affiliate marketers do not know about it yet. There are hundreds of free YouTube videos you can use with affiliate marketing to generate sales.

The majority of affiliate products are from major affiliate networks like Clickbank, JV Zoo, Warrior Plus, and many more. Already have free reviews and demo videos on YouTube that you can use to promote their products and generate sales with affiliate marketing.

These free videos come with the “Creative Commons” license attribute on YouTube. Meaning that you are allowed to use the videos without any copyright strikes against your YouTube channel. But always promote the affiliate product presented in the video with free YouTube videos and affiliate marketing.

Some affiliate products will provide you with videos to use in the JV sections. Those that don’t, might have something on YouTube that you can use. All you have to do is use this content marketing strategy to get the right review and demo videos to use.

Affiliate Marketing Product Research With YouTube Videos.

We have shared several other free YouTube video strategies for affiliate marketing. Some of them are rather similar to this specific strategy, only with this one we are going to focus on ranking for review and demo videos.

Think of it this way, when someone hears of a particular product or stumbles across it. What do they do next? Yes, many people look for reviews and demo videos about that product to see what it’s all about. That is where these free YouTube videos with affiliate marketing come into play.

Because you are going to search YouTube for specific (review and demo) videos about the products you want to promote. Search YouTube for videos with the following suggested search phrase template.

Then, as illustrated above, from inside your YouTube editor page. You want to click on “Filters” and then be sure to check the “Creative Commons” option. You may find that some products do not have review or demo videos you can use.

This affiliate marketing with free YouTube videos is a content marketing strategy. And you are going to have to put in the research and effort before it will work for you. But we will take you through the process.

Once you have found the videos you wish to use, then you want to copy the video URL. Not from the search window, but from the share window “Copy URL” option. Then simply paste those URLs into a tool called “yt5s(dot)com” and click on “start”.

Your free YouTube video will now be converted into the video definition you chose. We suggest HD (high definition — 1080p) because it helps with SEO and YouTube video ranking. But sometimes you will have to go with 720p medium definition.

This is now the video you will upload to your YouTube channel, once you download it from yt5s. Now that you have your video, the real work starts. Ranking your free YouTube affiliate marketing video as a product review, demo, or walkthrough video.

Ranking Free YouTube Videos With Affiliate Marketing.

When you use the “product review, demo, walkthrough, or testimonial” kind of titles. Then you are also targeting a specific product. With that also a specific audience. People that are looking for that particular product. Increasing your chances at a sale exponentially.

That however will depend on the quality of your video. Choose review and demo YouTube videos that create curiosity within the first 30 seconds. This is important for video ads because that is how long the average viewer will watch a video.

To be able to rank your free YouTube videos with affiliate marketing. You will need to install 3 free browser extensions for YouTube video SEO. Because you need to know what search phrases your video is ranking for. Simply install these free extensions and follow the simple steps.

Tube Buddy.

But you will also notice from the above illustration that this particular video is ranking for more than 5 high-volume search phrases. Some of them with millions of views per month! It also has an SEO score of 96.2%. You will however have to play around with your search phrases for the best results.

The green ranking positions are the results from Tube Buddy, while the blue ranking indications are from VidIQ. High-volume ranking tag results are also from VidIQ. You cannot get these tracking results without using the 3 free browser extensions mentioned earlier.

Your video “search phrases” or “tags” must be closely related to your video title. But we are going to show you how to get ranking video titles, descriptions, hashtags, tags, and keywords with Chat GPT. You will, however, have to come up with your video titles.

Video Descriptions, Hashtags, And Tags With ChatGPT.

Yes, we know. There are a lot of “mixed feelings” when it comes to AI. But AI is a tool, and the tool can be neither good nor bad. The person using the tool, however, can be. It matters how you use AI because it is not a “spam shortcut”!

We have ranked several videos for highly competitive, and high-volume search phrases using Chat GPT. The key though lies with what you type into the AI search window. It might seem trivial but believe us when we say it is of paramount importance.

Your video title will be part of all the upcoming searches with Chat GPT, as we will guide you through. You are going to do 4 searches with Chat GPT for the best YouTube video SEO results. Using the colon (:) is important because it usually precedes an explanation.

This way, you are making it easier for the AI to understand what you are looking for. You are looking for the “best article title and body” for the topic “your YouTube video title”. That makes sense, right? Simple, but rather effective we can assure you.

1 — Best article title and body: Your Video Title.

Once you get the results for this from Chat GPT in step one. You want to use the title suggested as your video title for the next searches. But you might have to shorten it, so you do not exceed 60 characters.

The body of this article is used for the video description, but you cannot exceed 5000 characters. Therefore, you might have to shorten the article slightly. Especially when you still want to include links and the affiliate offer you wish to promote.

2 — Best hashtags: Your Video Title.

Now you have a list of hashtags to use once your search is done. But you want to include 4 to 6 of your primary hashtags right at the start of your video description. The rest of the hashtags can follow in the footer, along with all the other links. Video creators normally include links to their channels, blogs, websites, other videos, etc.

However, the primary hashtags you use at the start of your video description must be directly related to the primary target keywords (search phrases or video tags). From the earlier demonstration and ranking illustrations, the ranking search phrases you see. Also have corresponding hashtags at the start of the video description.

You might want to check out this particular video on YouTube. Get a better idea of search phrases and hashtag placement if you wish. This is the YouTube video for which we shared the video SEO analytics earlier below.

We have done some editing with Canva and added our own introduction video clip and end screen. But you should not edit the video itself that you chose for promoting the affiliate offer related to the video. Video editing, however, is not necessary. You can just use the video as you downloaded it from yt5s.

The YouTube video thumbnail was designed with Canva by Deon Christie. The author assumes responsibility for the provenance and copyright. The author assumes responsibility for the authenticity.

You will notice the similarities between the video title, description, tags, and hashtags. But you will also notice the search phrase, tags, keyword distribution, and density in the video description. Use this as a guide. Please don’t copy and paste everything.

We are showing you a content marketing strategy, and using our best means to guide you as properly as we can. This video, title, tags, description, etc. serves as a step-by-step guide. If you can “read between the lines” you will learn about a lot more than just how to use free YouTube videos with affiliate marketing.

3 — Best keywords: Your Video Title.

With “best keywords”, and “best search phrases” in Chat GPT search 3 and 4. If you want to make a compilation of the most suitable ones, be selective because you only have 500 characters to use with video tags. Choose the ones that contain the keywords and search phrases used with your video title.

4 — Best search phrases: Your Video Title.

Once you have uploaded your video, you want to go to “edit video” so you can play around with the video tags. This is where you use all the keywords and search phrases you got from Chat GPT. Then keep all the high-ranking ones.

You are going to get a whole lot more than 500 characters worth of search phrases and keywords from Chat GPT. Using AI in this manner will render the results much more targeted, and within the context of the topic. Much like SEO, it’s all about what you say your content (search) is about.

Consistent YouTube Video Views For Affiliate Marketing.

With YouTube, the video title, description, tags, hashtags, thumbnails, and all of that are crucial for SEO. However, consistent views and activity are important to maintain your video ranking position. Ranking a video on YouTube is the easy part.

When you have consistent activity on your video, it will be indicated by VidIQ as can be seen below. 1 View per hour, thus far. This is why we mentioned consistency, not volume. SEO takes time, be it blogging or YouTube video SEO.

Maintaining that ranking position is not quite as “easy” as ranking the video. Therefore you must make use of the free tools you already have. There are free several ways to get views to your YouTube videos. Listed below are some of the most commonly used ways.

Free Classified Ads.

Social Media.

Blogs And Websites.

Writing Articles.

But there is also the option of running paid video ads through Google Ads. But we have discussed this strategy where you get USA-targeted Google Ads at 0,012 Cents Per 30-second video View in another Medium story just mentioned. Remember, paid ads evolved and there are a lot of options.

You can also run Twitter Ads with “Twitter Promote”. Or choose to run Tumblr Ads with “Tumblr Blaze”. Or you can take “Taboola” for a test drive. Targeted paid ads are mostly how many YouTube “Rockstars” get their millions of views and subscribers.

Just try to keep your views and engagement on your YouTube video consistent. Not necessarily overwhelming, just consistent. That way you will maintain the video ranking position. And in time you will see the views increase.
