  • Umm, for backlinks or for traffic? For backlinks I guess I would say articles because links from youtube videos are nofollow, except for the one link in your profile. Youtube videos are good for traffic, and you'll probably see more traffic from 100 youtube videos than 100 articles... but like anything, there's no guarantee of that.

    • I have to agree with you that for backlinks purposes, article marketing would be great especially if you want to rank a keyword of your choice.

      But for youtube videos, how do you generate traffic from there? I submitted 1 video so far to youtube but do not receive any traffic from them. How do you optimize your videos to attract visitors? From start to finish?

  • Hey there I feel that both creates the viral effect and I have been doing both and seeing my business starting to grow rapidly from all the backlinks out there. Software helps if you have like Traffic Anarchy or something that will save you loads of time .

    I can help you in the area of SEO if you ever need help just let me know. We currently rank for Google, Yahoo and Bing for many keywords the latest one being Profit SNatcher.. Later but yea articles submitted by some type of mass submission software will save you tons of time!

    • You should do both, but neither matters if you are using duplicate content or not using correct SEO standards, such as meta tags, alt tags, targeted keywords and phrases, correct density, etc. If done correctly you could get high SERP for your website.

  • The only way you are going to know is by testing both methods.

    Testing is THE "Big IM Secret"...... Problem is, people are too lazy to do it.. That's why they don't succeed.

  • If you are an excellent article writer, then you will have lots of luck with article writing for traffic. Otherwise, people just use it to get backlinks

    Videos can get you lots of traffic if you use good video seo. Remember the most important things are your title, tags and description. Make sure your keywords are in all.

    If I had to choose one media myself, I would choose you tube. Much more potential there.

    You can get ranked on both you tube and google ... a double whammy! Plus you can by pass alot of the search listings in google.

    • Yes I can attest to the article marketing provided you have keyword rich title in your articles.

  • Both are the best techniques but i am doing article marketing which is giving me the great traffic as well as the quality backlinks.
  • Article marketing is an awesome way to provide content for sales letters, squeeze pages and blogs. To have enough content to get regular traffic you should spend time every month writing new articles. Eventually, you should have your articles scattered across the web, giving you hundreds of chances to get traffic to your site.
  • No doubt youtube is decent source of traffic. But article submissions are quite well known for the both quality backlinks as well as traffic. So I think you should go for article submission firstly.
  • Talking about backlinks and traffic article marketing could be the best, youtube is only effective for vital traffic but not much in backlinks.
  • Both are great methods

    there are different methods involved.

    For example with the article marketing method you can use it to get instant traffic or you can use it to get your articles published by other website owners.

    With videos you can have 30 second promo videos or more comprehensive article videos or even video tutorials.

    There's a place for both and you should use both

    kind regards

  • Article marketing and youtube videos is a great method to build backlink.
  • Both will give you more traffic by visual or reading terms but articles, it gets more because of approved live links from main/top directories which makes confidence and trust on it.
