If you have a hard time finding a funny content from your business or product here a tip: If you are promoting insurance, simple look in any mayor search engine for "insurance jokes", you will find some good ones. Make a video with you telling those jokes, or make a power point presentation with the jokes and use windows movie maker or any related software to combine the slide as video archive. Upload the video and use tags like funny, jokes, insurance. Then put your URL in the description.

2) TAGS, TAGS, TAGS

When you are uploading a video be sure to complete all the information that the site requires. A very important box to be filling is the TAG's one. Most of the video sharing sites allows you to write up to 10 tags for each video. Here is a tip: again if you are promoting for example insurance, type the word insurance in the search box of the video sharing site. Look for the video that has more visitors of all. Go to that video and copy the tags that are being used by the publisher. Then copy that tags to your video and save the information. If you don't want to do this, just write all the tags that you can think in the box. Remember, more tags could be more ways that users found your videos.

Upload your videos to all the sites you can. (NOTE: some sites are very selective in what videos are going to publish; they don't like publicity of any kind. Be sure of not promoting directly your product or service in the video).
