I was expecting her to say 'Is that it?' halfway through. She was bored after the second sentence..


She wasn't really clued up was she. With it.


I bet that was you Mr Rhino really wasn't it.

I think she gave it a decent go considering the subject matter, script,etc..

How much time did you give her to practice ?

I know why you keep pumping these things out, but surely, something more professionally produced would benefit your company and image ??

Darran - we have hundreds of pro made videos but the crappy home made ones bring in the work

We have been testing for years - Trust Me.

Have you got any we could see or don't you bother with them.

I've done a couple over the years, I think they are still on the website, but I don't really think they any value at the level I can achieve I would not be happy with the results.

I have plans to video a gutter clear in the next week or so, I'll post it for you, but when all said and done it's not an exciting subject even though we can get some stunningly good results

O is for ORANGE! not for the number ZERO!

oh oh eight oh.

i lost count how many times she said "bronze aluminium window frame". well done to her that's a bit of tongue twister.

also got to agree. she stumbled a fair bit. if you find this style of video works then great, what do you need us to review it for it's amateurish which you say gets the work. 

the video showed no before or after. just some guy wiping something on a bronze aluminum window frame.


imo if you're going to make a video, this is the type you should make

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KdanPL9bamg

amateur, but helpful.  shows you know what you're doing and want to help out. the video you posted was an advert only, dull, and absolutely no benefit to anyone who watched it. 

the benefit to an amateur video is you feel you get someone who knows what they're talking about and is directly involved in the business operations. I'm doubtful she is the one cleaning windows, perhaps a receptionist?

If so, i'd add that, something like

"hi i'm Zoe and I'm the receptionist here at purple rhino. bronze aluminium window frame restoration, bronze aluminium window frame, bronze aluminium window frame. Give me a call on Oranges oranges eight oranges and I will be happy get our team or restore your windows" etc.

That would at least help the viewer understand why a girl is speaking about a role she appears to not understand and one that is carried out by a guy.

"best at making  crap videos". i'm surprised the mods even allow it. how can advertisers not be put off from this site when the user base is so nasty?

the video sucked. so did the first video that pewdiepie made. now he earns 7 million a year and growing. if you're going to post on this forum why not at least make it a useful post? ok rhinoman is coming across as a big arrogant but i don't blame him for boasting a bit with all the useless put down he's being given from users on here.

Useful content and useful comments will make this site better.

If you only knew how much business we gain from these crappy videos you would be surprised!

For example if you do a google search : bronze window frame restoration - see where we come up - scroll down the page - there will be others - some more of us
Click onto the video - notice you can go to my website - you can call me because my freephone number is there - you can click on a link that takes you to a relevant page on my website - do you get the picture now?

And I know that it is extremely unlikely that someone will type this into a google search - but if someone does they will find my company - hopefully at the top of an organic web search listing on google - now imagine if they need our bronze window frame restoration for 400 windows on an office building? Good money. And the reason we made this video was the fact that a company in London wanted to see how it could be done - we sent them the crappy video on Thursday and on Friday they called me to demonstrate on their 400 window building in London............... Now if I get just one more company has this cheap crappy video been worthwhile? I think so as it cost me virtually zilch to make.

I have been trying to teach you all some cheap free to use and make crappy videos for months that actually work - you don't listen - except for the guys who have listened and are now doing the same - growing their businesses for free. There are more tricks to what I am talking about phone me to learn more if you want to.

If you have a website and want it to rank easily and cheaply in your own area - do what I do - it really works.

Or just keep on being the best at what you do - copying each other making silly useless remarks to belittle others who are only trying to teach you something.

Imagine those who called me and started doing the same are now growing their businesses.............

You all know I started in 2010 - I never told you apart from having only one van I only had £2.40 in the bank!

We now have 6 vans - and one brand new cherry picker as well as 3 company cars - some leased some owned.
Where do you want to be in 5 years - on here being the very best heckler or serious about growing your business.

Have a great weekend!

In SEO, endlessly repeating keywords in a video does "zilch". Google doesn't crawl video content so your efforts are largely wasted. You have repeatedly been told this but you don't listen .

It doesn't. Keywords in text do work, but not in video. Google doesn't listen to them. It does nothing to enhance your search position at all. You may as well make the video interesting rather than just repeating keywords. It sounds ridiculous and doesn't do anything. With such a successful business you ought to be able to employ someone that can give you good advice.

If you mean ::)roll

In order to effectively aid marketers in fully understanding customers and subsequently developing a strategic marketing plan, marketing automation tools (MAT) are designed to perform four key tasks:
 Development and analysis of marketing campaigns and customers
 Management of marketing campaigns
 Appropriate customer data organization and storage
 Moving contacts from leads to customers
 
It is typical of marketing automation platforms to offer a content management system, hosted webforms, landing pages, analytics, and email platform.

If you are providing an ongoing service to the likes of Tesco or Sainsbury's I can see why it might be helpful to have documented procedures. In general though, if customers aren't asking for it, it is just an unnecessary expense. Maybe they are asking? Seems unlikely though.

can you provide a sauce to prove that google does not crawl video content? because they do work out the words in the videos, so interest to know how you knwo they don't use those words.

Well I didn't need to provide a 'sauce" as I already knew, but here you go: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/72746?hl=en

Have a read. The point is that it's good to have videos that are informative and interesting, but keyword spamming is bad enough to read, to listen to its even more tortuous, but to listen to it being read in such an amateurish way when it doesn't even get crawled..... Well, not very bright really.

OK Guys
I made a really crappy video about abseiling if you remember and I only spoke about abseiling and video'd my new car.

Does it rank on Google? - Number 2 on a video search - not brilliant but it ranks - Try it by googling - abseiling window cleaners London.

OK so we really want to rank on a web search so lets try a web search on google for - Render Cleaning Poole - from where I am sat we DOMINATE the whole page nearly - and maybe that is why we get lots of calls specifically from that area - even though we are based nowhere near Poole.

We have had lots of pro videos made - they did not work so well - people seem to like home made because they know its real?

Of course google listens - it loves Meerkats  8)

Budget for Adwords - each year more than most of you turn over I would think as well as many other forms of SEO tricks for the website - we do a lot ourselves and outsource some to other companies - Our new website should be ready by X Mas and we are hopeful of doubling in size (and Profit) during 2016 - watch this space.

Many of you could vastly increase your own income by keeping things simple (*t***d)  ;D

It really does not matter who does or Does NOT like the videos - some will and some won't but hey - they are there working for me for free!

Alongside our Lifecycle Marketing System we attack many companies every single day of the week - without doing so much - its automatic - one of the companies who we attacked for two years finally called us earlier this year https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.1010930142282466.1073741849.175549312487224&type=3 (https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.1010930142282466.1073741849.175549312487224&type=3)

You can see my employees in our own Access Platform Doff Steam Cleaning the facade  - we also provided chewing gum removal and have quoted for on going window cleaning - we only approached them once by visiting - but they received relevant information from us automatically for two years - it works!

Most people who know me - know I usually spend 16 weeks a year on holiday - rather than working (except for this year due to unexpected serious ill health within my family which has prevented us from going anywhere) My point is - running a business should give you the opportunity to be free from working hard within your business - you only need to learn how to pay others to work hard for you.

OK so we really want to rank on a web search so lets try a web search on google for - Render Cleaning Poole - from where I am sat we DOMINATE the whole page nearly - and maybe that is why we get lots of calls specifically from that area - even though we are based nowhere near Poole.

We have had lots of pro videos made - they did not work so well - people seem to like home made because they know its real?

Of course google listens - it loves Meerkats  8)

Budget for Adwords - each year more than most of you turn over I would think as well as many other forms of SEO tricks for the website - we do a lot ourselves and outsource some to other companies - Our new website should be ready by X Mas and we are hopeful of doubling in size (and Profit) during 2016 - watch this space.

Many of you could vastly increase your own income by keeping things simple (*t***d)  ;D

It really does not matter who does or Does NOT like the videos - some will and some won't but hey - they are there working for me for free!

Alongside our Lifecycle Marketing System we attack many companies every single day of the week - without doing so much - its automatic - one of the companies who we attacked for two years finally called us earlier this year https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.1010930142282466.1073741849.175549312487224&type=3 (https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.1010930142282466.1073741849.175549312487224&type=3)

You can see my employees in our own Access Platform Doff Steam Cleaning the facade  - we also provided chewing gum removal and have quoted for on going window cleaning - we only approached them once by visiting - but they received relevant information from us automatically for two years - it works!

Most people who know me - know I usually spend 16 weeks a year on holiday - rather than working (except for this year due to unexpected serious ill health within my family which has prevented us from going anywhere) My point is - running a business should give you the opportunity to be free from working hard within your business - you only need to learn how to pay others to work hard for you.
Ok if someone is looking for your service in Poole, but you aren't on the first three pages for "render cleaning" or "render cleaning newbury".  So nationally you aren't doing well on Google for that search term. Let's face it, it's a niche area so any barely competent SEO specialist should be able to achieve that for you. I'm quite certain I could. Your problem is that you think you know it all and you won't listen to anyone.

Dear 8 Weekly

I agree with what you said - Thank You for the information - however I know I do not rank nationally and that is why we are spending a fortune on a new website - like I said watch this space.

For now though the crappy videos - do work in areas where we like to work - and they cost virtually zilch.

If you wish to enlighten me on your seo skill by all means call me - 07766243171

Thanks for the invite but I'm busy with my own business. You don't need a new website, you just need slightly less spammy versions of the text you have in your videos in text format on your webpage. Your website doesn't have any text. You are doing well in Poole because of you case study page https://purple-rhino.co.uk/case-studies/view/luxury-property-render-cleaning

My website is very basic. I just did a quick free two page Weebly one three years ago and have done nothing since. I'm no web designer. Websites aren't important for domestic window cleaning in my opinion, but you're welcome to look. www.newburywindowcleaner.co.uk

My SEO work was for an audiobook website which was 2nd or 3rd on Google for the search term audio books for three years. It was a dying business though because of Audible.

Purplerhino, there is no video on the linked page for Poole. It does well because of the text:

Render Cleaning Services to a Property in Poole, Dorset.
9 Dalkieth Rd

The property is currently for sale in Poole, Dorset

The property has had many viewers but none of them bought.

The estate agents and the owners put it down to the stains on the properties white rendered surfaces - making it look unsightly.

A short video can be seen here

Client

Private Client

Project Manager

Purple Rhino Render Cleaning Services

Client Requirement

The property needed to look good as new in order to sell

Project Solution

Purple Rhino Render Cleaning Division

Render Cleaning on this property took three days.

However you can clearly see the end result - it is amazing.

We wish the owners a speedy sale!

Testimonials

Wow!! That's really great. I'm very happy.

The render looks like new.

Not trying to be bigheaded as I usually am

I appear to have a better web presence than thou does?? - I have over 350 FREE videos working and I have proof that I have gained a lot of business through the videos alone - without the website. One Custy saw a video and called us and we did a £20k cladding clean for him - he has now booked another 6 call centres - so sorry but THEY DO WORK and it was the Meerkat voice that made the client think - they will be a team of grafters! Eastern Europeans LOL

Free to make and Free to air - enough said?

Your business is national and mostly commercial and therefore merits a decent web presence. Mine is domestic and my marketing effort is a daily leaflet drop of two hours. The issue is that if you focussed on getting your text right in conjunction with your videos you would do a lot better - however crap they are.

Nah, try People per Hour. It does need content though. Do believe me that your keywords are niche and it never ought to be hard to get to page one nationally for them with some half decent content. And the Poole one is doing well because it has good content. Nothing to do with a video, except that Google does like it that you have videos. So with some good content you would do a lot better than someone without videos.

I think I also once spoke with your wife (maybe somebody else) explained what to do in Full. I was taking a few cleaners to Bulgaria at the time for a weekend on "how to grow their businesses"  maybe you/she remembers/maybe not?

Personally I love helping smaller businesses grow and understand "how to" - mainly because I believe that the better we ALL make the industry the BETTER it will be for ALL of us ;) I'm pushing 50 and have been at it over 30 years - 98% of the time running my own businesses. I have a lot to give........... :P

I didn't come back with £2.40 - after being in business in the UK for a few months our cash in business bank was £2.40
Luckily and the part which I forgot to mention we had done work and were owed over £5k - so it did not take too long to become very cash positive!

I still have businesses in Bulgaria - mainly renting out properties -one which you can see here http://www.homeaway.co.uk/p476605?flspusage=fl (http://www.homeaway.co.uk/p476605?flspusage=fl)
