My results with Online Video and ranking in Google

I recently did some testing with trying to rank for specific phrases using videos uploaded through Tubemogul and distributed through a network of video websites.

I know there are a bunch of people starting to do this and I have not yet seen any of the systems and techniques they use.  However what I did was pretty simple…I did not even socially bookmark the videos.

The results?  How about 7 out of 10 listings on page 1 of google for my search phrase? OK, I know this all depends on what the phrase is and where the search was conducted from (Australia) but I was pretty impressed?

The phrase? “Understanding backlinks and anchor text”  Heck I’m even ranking for understanding backlinks.

Detailed results of the test were posted to my company blog.  Here is my post on how to grab page 1 listings on google with online video.

My Workstation

My Mac Workstation

Ok so there seems to be a lot of this going around on the net….I’ve cleaned my desk up and here is my workstation..It’s the most efficient set up I have had in a while and lets me watch and listen to the stompernet videos on screen 2 whilst working on screen 1.

Let me tell you the dual screen setup works a treat.

I’m using:

  • 24 inch Imac 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo - 2GB Ram
  • 23 inch Apple Cinema HD display
  • Thecus NAS Box with 3x 250GB hard drives in raid 5 config to store all my goodies

Once you get the second screen happening, even the 24inch imac feels short of space.

What else do I need? Any ideas?
