Kurt, you probably would know this better than anyone in my sphere. Do you have any ideas about how to get in touch with a big dog like Mike Tyson. Yeah, I know hundreds of thousands of dollars. But just for giggles how would you do it? This would be for a 10-minute Q&A or something similar.

Thanks.

• AmbientVids Titles Keyword Density - CVS file with the "densities" of the most used words in these video titles. This is not the typical keyword research. These are the keywords these creators are actually using.
   
  
• Most Relevant Keywords - I scraped over 50 of the most popular YouTube channels that create ambient videos and came up with more than 4700 titles. I then ran just these titles through a keyword density checker to see which words and phrases actual creators use the most for their ambient videos.

CapCut

CapCut is free app has really useful features called 3D Zoom and 3D Zoom Pro that create a "parallax effect" on still images. I've used this technique quite a bit over the years to add interest to still images, but had to do it manually. CapCut  is just one click.

This is an 11-second video I slapped together of two versions of two still images. You'll see the still image of each for a few seconds, then the 3D Zoom Pro effect:



Because it's cool and now easy to do, this technique will probably become over-used in the future. But until then, it's a great way to add interest and keep attention when using still images in videos.

Here's a quick How To video:



Again, it's free. Links:

Here's a short video I made for my PowerPoint Paradise collection and it shows how easy it is to use PowerPoint's 3D abilities to make simple but cool animated cartoons.



In this video, notice that I'm also using PowerPoint plugins that add images directly from Pixabay and Pexels. I explain that more in other videos included in PowerPoint Paradise.

This video is just a small part of PowerPoint Paradise, and PowerPoint Paradise is just a small part of the Pheeds Video for Marketing VIP Forum.

Here's some really useful resources for free images. What makes these image directories a little different from sites like Pixabay and Pexels these sites specialize in isolated PNGs with transparent backgrounds. These are great to layer over and under other pics and text to give your images and videos a lot more depth.

Free PNG (double check licenses)

Of course, you can also start a search at Pixabay using their transparent background attribute:

Here's a really good free stock video site I recently ran across that you should add to your bookmarks called Coverr.co. It doesn't have a lot of videos, but it has a very good license and it has what I'll call "collections" which are multiple videos about the same scene. Instead of just a close up of a person, you also may have that person drinking coffee and scrolling a screen.

With a little creativity, you can piece them together to help tell a story.

https://coverr.co/stock-video-footage
They mix in a lot of videos from the ShutterStock affiliate program, so just pay attention to the videos you click on. Then look out for "collections" while you browse and brainstorm.

https://coverr.co/license - Their license.
Note, they prohibit the use of "People's images if they are recognizable in the Videos". While other sites don't state this, it's probably wise to always respect this point unless you specifically have a signed model release for both videos and photos. You can be creative and crop or enlarge, so the face is partly out of the frame, etc., so faces aren't recognizable.

I've used this basic linking strategy for a very long time for niche sites of 20-100 or so pages. If you have fewer pages than that, just link to all of them from the home page.

However, you can and should create your own link juice. I think of linking in terms of:

Money Pages Are One Click from Homepage - These are your 10 or so money pages.

Category Pages Are One Click from Homepage - These pages link to your two click pages and your money pages. While some advice (which is really wrong) is to think of these as a "silo structure", I think of them more in old-school SEO terms as "gateway pages", whose main purpose is to make it easy for Google to spider the links and index the pages.

Support Pages Are Two Clicks from Homepage - Support pages are pages created to boost money pages by using contextual internal links.

Home page => Money pages => Other money pages and Occasionally other pages
Home page => Category pages => Support Pages => Money pages
All pages => Home page

Support pages typically don't have to be as long. Mix and match left over content to create articles of 650-1000 words or so for support pages that link to money pages. Call them "random stuff" or "in case you missed these" pages.

Also, while the category pages should be somewhat organized by theme, if one is getting pages indexed by Google and another isn't, use the good one.

I recently posted about this on another thread but have been playing around with it some more and think it deserves a thread (or more) of its own.

First, I started making my own content creation tools more than 20 years ago and content creation is something I've paid attention to even longer.

The tools available today to help you create good, quality content amaze me. The ability of AI content helpers to help create written content is transforming the way we write.

On that other thread, I also talked about ClipChamp, a free program that does an excellent job with text to speech, as well as being a pretty cool video editor for marketers:
A couple of free content tools

But for this thread, let's talk about ScribeHow:
https://scribehow.com/

What it does is automates the creation of "how to's" and turns them into PDFs. You just turn it on and every time you click or scroll it takes a screen shot records the action for you. I've created a lot of "how to's" and ScribeHow probably makes it 75% easier.

For marketing, this means anything that can be done online can be easily be made into a HowTo.pdf and a PDF gives you additional assets you can sell, trade and use for incentives and bonuses.

You can also submit pdfs to pdf directories like Slideshare.net and Issuu, giving you more reach.

With the free version of ScribeHow it's easy to convert PDFs to images to import into your favorite video editing program. Note that you should still respect their branding and footers on the images when using the free version. It's your content that matters.

ScribeHow Pro is only $29 a month and it's the kind of program I recommend "bingeing" with. Use the free version to learn it. It won't take long. Then do research for topics including keyword research and finding things people need help with on forums, Reddit, FB, etc. Then spend your month cranking out as many How To's as you can, based on your research.

If you're bingeing, the reason to go Pro is really for just two things. You won't care about Engagement insights, since you won't be tracking them after 30 days. We're really only concerned with:

• advanced edit and branding
  
• Export as HTML.
  

An important concept when it comes to SEO, keywords and making money is to think about what people really want, not necessarily exactly what people search for.

Let's say someone does a search for "tee shirt mockups". Our first thought about this keyword phrase is the person is probably looking for some images they can modify. But what it we did a little deeper "poker read" into folks searching for "tee shirt mockups". We can probably assume these folks want to sell tee shirts and are looking for mockups to help them sell tee shirts.

Another example is someone searching for something related to Woocommerce. We can be pretty sure that this is someone that wants to make money with their website. Keywords like "WooCommerce marketing" or may be super-competitive. Many Woo-related searches will be performed by people interested in "WooCommerce marketing".

Maybe your research shows that "woocommerce custom fields" is a good keyword phrase to optimize for.  You can (and should) create content around this keyword phrase that transitions into a good-paying affiliate program that will also help them make more money. They need themes, WP plugins, SEO, copywriting tips, merchant accounts...and more.

Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) is another example. People that publish KDP books want to make money. Even a basic search like "kdp gutter margins" is done by a person wanting to make money. What software will help them that also pays you? Any courses to help them write better Amazon ads or rank better in the Amazon SERPs?

There's tons of keywords that are tied to people that want to make money, that aren't directly about making money. For starters:

Amazon affiliate
KDP
Etsy
Shopify
Adsense
WordPress
Woo
EPN / eBay Partner Network
Clickbank
ShareASale
CJ
Walmart Affiliates

...and plenty more.

These are all indicators of people that want to make money online, that aren't searching for "make money online".
