Patrick Schwerdtfeger discusses what you can include in the video description field on YouTube and how that benefits the video and also your other websites.  For example, you can include a live linke to your website or blog and get "Google Juice" as a result.  Most links on social media platforms automatically become "no-follow" links so you get no SEO benefits, but not in the description field!

This video was recorded on August 15, 2009 in Berkeley, CA.  It was part of a full-day workshop entitled Social Media Victories  Real Businesses, Real Campaigns, Real Results which focused on how entrepreneurs, small business owners and self-employed service professionals can leverage Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook and YouTube to grow their businesses.

This video is about SEO and how you can boost the ranking of your website or blog by including raw URL links in the video description field of your videos on YouTube.  YouTube leaves those raw URLs as live links and the SEO benefits are real.  That means you can boost the ranking of your website or blog by pointing links from the description field to your site.  Take advantage of it.
