One of the biggest gripes I (as well as many others) have with Youtube is their piss poor quality of the videos. Problem is - not using Youtube is only hurting one person, Me. There is absolutely no denying the fact that Youtube is one of the most trafficked sites on the internet and not using its power to get at least a trickle of fresh visitors to my blog is an obvious loss.
So how does one overcome the poor quality of the video or perhaps even use it to the advantage and get some traffic to a blog? With video marketing being one of the goals for me this year I think I found an answer to the question and that is exactly what I’m going to share 
Last year I have purchased an amazing product from Josh Anderson which I have used to my benefit with some very solid results for a while - Greatest Web Video Effect. In fact I still didn’t see anything that comes even close to that product but it does require you to be able to work with video formats, green screen recording, etc. So that product might not be the right fit for everyone, which doesn’t change its benefits to the right person but simply narrows down the group of people who can benefit from it!
I loved the way that product was done and how clearly it guided me through the steps required to produce the web effect similar to his page. I even had it for a while on my Web 2.0 Wealth sales page until was replaced by a better converting video…
Now, why I’m telling you this?
I have revisited Josh’s site and noticed that he is getting ready to release a new product - Optimize Your Video. And while it is still in pre-launch stages he already shows some of the things one can do to produce a Crisp, Clear and Superb quality videos while still publish them on the Youtube!
He even goes and compares his video quality against one of the people known to teach these strategies on youtube and I have to admit - he puts him to a complete shame! See the video screenshot below from his site as it directly impact my plans to produce videos using Screen Recorded Tutorials, something that has proven to work well for me. See for yourself how superior is his quality!
Assuming his product quality will on par with a previous - I’m anxious to get my hands on it. According to his page it is due this month and I can only say one thing - imagine how well you can do by producing videos on youtube that exceed in quality anything currently available?
I guess at this point it is a waiting game for me and I have subscribed to his launch list to be notified as soon as it is becomes available…

Hi Alex,
I was wandering around the net and found this post…
Thanks for the great compliments much appreciated.
In regards to your comments about what we will be teaching about so that people can get better quality videos on youtube…The good news is that is only one aspect of what we will be teaching.And I promise you the content will not only be the quality you have experienced before but many many times better.
Btw… if you have not been back lately check out “teaser 4″ on the prelaunch page as I show how you can use youtube to host larger dimention screen capture videos on youtube for embedding with clarity and quality on your own site at full dimentions.The example I have up now is 640×480 but I have done the same with 800×600 and will post an example of one that size hosted on youtube embedded on an external site when we get closer to launch.Personally after the results of the Youtube technique that I have tested and tweaked my opinion about how to host and embed public screen capture tutorial videos for use on my own sites has completely changed.I believe with the quality I am able to achieve using “method 1″ that there will no longer be too many reasons for me to host my own public screen capture tutorial videos… The reason I believe that are two fold:
1. I have finally figured out how to get the optimal quality on youtube and thus save myself bandwidth.
2. If the video is going to be public anyway why not host it on youtube and put a url or watermark on it plus a link in your description to get free traffic!
Regards,
Josh Anderson
Thanks Josh
I can’t wait till your product is released. Being a customer to your original Greatest Web Video Effect I know the type of quality I can expect and this product would be nice addition to my tools.
