Customer Review Videos - Review

Before I get into the nitty gritty here I'd like to thank you for taking the time to visit this review for Customer Review Videos. CRV is a fairly new site but upon first glimpse from a videographer and affiliate marketer the possibilities are extremely promising. It is too new in the game to give some solid numbers of what this opportunity may bring. That being said, updates will be provided and the comments section will remain open for others to relay their first impressions and experiences. Any promotions or discounts will be added below as well.

Affiliate marketers have been struggling for some time now trying to figure more ways to make money on the web with video. Some of the ways being implemented today include video squeeze pages, video tutorials, and paid for video sites.

A new way to make money with video has finally arrived in web 2.0. Amazingly, you don't need any lights, tripods, or even cameras to pull this show off. This new site is named Customer Review Videos. It offers 14 built in "profit plug-ins" to max out the potential of making money from your selected videos. I use the term "your selected videos" as you can now monetize from OPE (other peoples efforts).

CRV is a place where marketers can take video reviews from the web of a product they'd like to promote and create a review site which automatically formats several link options. Links attach to the bottom frame of the movie player and provide the buyer or seeker with instant gratification to the product they want.

Don't see the review you need? Take your own footage, load it up to Youtube, Revver, Break, or other social media site of your choice. Start a new project and add the piece to your CRV members area using the simple "add video" button. Add redirect information - where you'd like the viewer to go after watching your video.

Drop your newly finished production on your blog or web page and see what happens. Just below the video are 4 links: Get It, Ebay It, Amazon It, and Google It. These options are your accounts to these companies. When someone watching your video hits "Get It" they are taken to your niche site. This is just the beginning.

Your new video is going to need some traffic. Sure a blog or your website is nice - but is it enough? But I think you'll agree, you can never have too much traffic! Here is where CRV gets really creative. Your new video is automatically part of the Customer Review Videos site, so even if you don't move it or embed it elsewhere, it is now fodder for the google bots. Just by creating the review with tags in place it is in motion. There is more.

Social is a big word in the 2.0 era. And social is all about sharing. Social Bookmarking links are included with your video just to the right of the player on the CRV site.

• email your video to your friends or list
• submit to Digg
• submit to Delicious
• submit to Furl
• submit to Stumbleupon

Want to see if you're getting traffic? Get your Google analytics code and add it to your personal options. Get a first hand look at what is going on with your sites.

Take the code from the "embed it" option and carry the whole video to your website or blog. Again, the options Get It, Ebay It, Amazon It, and Google It will follow your video to your corner of the web.

Don't want video on your site? Or perhaps you'd like to reference your review in a comment on someone's blog. A straight cut and paste link is available. Again, you don't need your own site for someone to find your video.

What is additionally nice about the Link It option - a comments section is provided to anyone visiting the page. Get feedback for the video you have selected. Here your visitors will also have the additional social bookmarking options.

Have several products you'd like to promote within a niche site? With a Platinum Membership you can use the onlline Niche Site Builder to create high demand video content for all your products all in one place. Use your own domain to feature a site.

CRV will include your custom sites in their Google Sitemap - giving their members better chances for organic long term results. I've personally spent a small fortune in ad spend and can tell you organic is the way to go. If you are inexperienced with building websites and SEO this is a no brainer.

Copy on web pages can get out of control. A gal (or guy:) can only read so much on a computer during the course of the day. Eyes are overworked trying to focus on the pixels of most LCD screens.

The Platinum membership includes a video squeeze page option. No need to fuss with bandwidth.

You can add your Aweber or GetResponse opt-in forms right below your video.

Your list stays with you! Easily assembled video squeeze pages for all your campaigns.

I've included a link here for a sample squeeze page in action. No html makes it possible to put together a squeeze page in 5 minutes or less. Would you like to take a field trip?

Check out the Video Squeeze Page I made:

A link is provided at the bottom of the squeeze page so you may return to this review.

The following 2 part video is in real time (except for the quick cut). See how quickly you can get a product review page up and running using the "OPE" method. This is only the second time I did this, and I realized when finished my page creation was well under 15 minutes. This includes the time to find a video (I have the video ready at the beginning), format the page, add my review blurb, and publish. With regular practice and copy materials prepared this is easily a 5 minutes or less process. Keep in mind, if you change your mind about a review you've initially selected (or a new one comes about) your page stays in tact and you can edit all of your different elements on the page. Even better, when you get around to finally making your own video, you'll be able to replace it at any time. Total runtime on the combined videos is just over 12 minutes.

This program is extremely user friendly and and really explores the possibilities with video on the web. You have the option to use your own materials or someone elses. You can use this for clickbank and other affiliate programs or link to your own site. Video squeeze pages and video niche sites can be generated now with literally the "click of a button."

Honestly, I'm good with video, but technically challenged with building pages on the web. This program offers the opportunity for everyone to do both, and cash in on it too.

My prediction? Web 2.0 wil be the rise of true video marketing.

A free Silver Membership is available to all. The Platinum Membership does carry a monthly membership fee.
