Not sure if YouTube can help you promote your brand online? Here are 6 benefits of YouTube advertising for your business

1. YouTube advertising is economical

The biggest advantage of YouTube advertising is that it is budget-friendly. A typical ad view generally costs you between 0.5 cents and 1 cent, which is really cheap as compared to the cost of keyword search, which can run for $20 per click or more.

Not only are video views themselves relatively cheap, but, as with PPC ads, advertisers only pay when users choose to engage with the ads. Besides, YouTube advertising works the same ways as pay-per-click or PPC ads. In PPC advertising the advertiser pays to the publisher only when his/her ad is clicked on by someone. Same way, advertisers on YouTube only pay when users engage with the ads by clicking at them.

2. YouTube advertising is highly targeted

Another notable benefit of advertising your business on YouTube is that it allows target an extremely specific audience. It allows granular targeting of the audience by:

• Life events: Audience can be targeted on the basis of different life events they might have experienced recently, such as relocating, wedding, or having a baby etc.

• Topics: You can target different groups of customers based on their topics of interest.

• Affinity Audience: Reach your prospects by targeting those who have strong interest in your products or services.

• Demographics: You can reach clients based on their gender, age and location etc.

• Video Remarketing: Target users who have previously shown interest in your videos or YouTube ads

• Similar Audience: You can also use “Customer Match” data to reach prospective customers who typically show interest in advertisements like yours

In a nutshell, YouTube advertising helps you in targeting the population in both highly specific and general ways, based on the product you are aiming to sell.

5. It gives instant results

With over 2 billion end-user each month, YouTube is the second largest search engine after Google. Therefore, it makes a fantastic marketing platform where you’ll see instant results.

Any video or ad run on YouTube reaches such a large audience around the globe within a short span of time. Presenting your product to such a large user base means getting:

• More ad clicks

• Increased website traffic, and

• Enhanced sales over time

For example, if you are using an email marketing strategy, you send emails to a limited number of customers, say only 10 customers. The result is only 10 people getting to know your brand and thus the rate of sales will also be less.

However, advertising on YouTube, with such a vast and diversified pool of users, guarantees faster results since your content will reach a lot more people.

6. You can repurpose YouTube videos

You can use YouTube content in a number of ways. For example, you can share the videos on your other social media platforms, such as Facebook, Instagram, etc., to increase traffic and engagement.

Since videos attract people’s attention and have a higher retention power, YouTube videos offer an excellent way to catch prospective client’s attention and stay in their memories.

Additionally, sharing YouTube videos on other social media platforms offers a smart way to send back more traffic to your YouTube page and increase your subscribers.

Even if you have a specific choice of targets, still many more people will interact with your ad, as compared to the number of people that would do using other methods or platforms.
