YO YouTube is the number one place for creating and sharing video content, and it can also be an incredibly powerful social media marketing tool.

Instead, focus on creating useful, instructive “how-to” videos. These how-to videos also have the added benefit of ranking on the video search results of Google, so don't under-estimate the power of video content!
