EXPLAINER VIDEOS

THE IMPORTANCE OF HAVING AN EXPLAINER VIDEO ON TODAY’S INTERNET IS IRREFUTABLE. HERE ARE SOME OF THE REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD HAVE ONE BY NOW.

SIMPLE UNDERSTANDING

According to a Forrester Research study, a single minute of video is worth 1.8 million words. Yes, you got that right: 1 minute of video = 1.8 million words. So you can start thinking about that loooong paragraph you’ll need to write down to explain your product to your audience, or just make it simple for them with a brand new video.

SEO

A website with a video on its homepage is 53 times more likely to appear on the first page of Google’s search listings.

A reason for this is that Google loves simple and effective ways of displaying information. Google also tracks the amount of time a person spends on your website, and based on this it weights the importance of the zillions of sites on the internet. Simply put: more time on your site = rocket high rankings.

INCREASED CONVERSION RATES

According to a survey conducted by Video Rascal, 85 percent of people are more likely to buy a product if its presented with an explainer video.

The reason behind this is actually quite simple: People are lazy…or very busy. By watching a 1 minute video they quickly understand what a product or service is about without having to read long paragraphs of information.

Video trends

Yes, that's David Caruso from the old CSI series. We'll get into that in a minute...

Internet users watch 1 billion hours of YouTube every single day! And that’s YouTube alone, just imagine the possibilities with all the rest of the social platforms combined (Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, Twitter, etc!). Well, let us tell you this: Just the top 3 social networks alone are now playing 22 billion videos per day.

Video can be played…but it’s no game (insert CSI scream).

AS VIRAL AS A…VIRUS

Thanks to social networks and video-focused platforms (such as You Tube, Vimeo and Dailymotion) videos can go viral and be shared among internet users in seconds.

92% of mobile video consumers share video with their friends and families. This happens without having to spend extra cash on advertising or server bandwith. More people watching your video = more visits to your site. Did we mention SEO already?

VIDEOS RULES THE ADVERTISING WORLD

Video promotions are 6 times more effective than print and/or direct mailing
