YouTube videos geotagged to a location on Google Earth

Google Maps has seen many useful mashups in the last few months including Street View and integration with third parties such as Craigslist. Now it is Google Earth’s turn. Google is allowing for a Google Earth/ YouTube Mashup with video’s geotagged and viewable from within Google Earth’s 3D view.

Geotagged video’s on YouTube viewable by location via Google Earth will combine satellite imagery, terrain and city buildings. When a video is uploaded on YouTube the option of adding an address to the video is available.

This could have a fantastic effect on using YouTube videos to showcase property as a Real Estate video could be geotagged when uploaded to YouTube. The user could watch it whilst looking at that neighborhood online.

Home Buyers are searching for Real Estate Video Listings in YouTube

Pew Internet & American Life Project says that 57% of Internet users have watched videos online and most of them share what they find with others. They say 74% of those who enjoy high-speed connections at home and work watch or download video online and that 19% do it every day.

More recently Hitwise data showed visits to YouTube had increased 70% when comparing January 2007 to May 2007. In fact, Hitwise showed YouTube’s market share to be 50% greater than all 64 video aggregator sites combined.

It’s noteworthy that Google has massive competition for virtually any search, whereas in YouTube there’s a great deal of search traffic but much less competition for search results. Seeing as how Google recently announced the YouTube video library will be a major part of their search index, it’s an opportune time to consider creating listing video tours. They can be terrific marketing content for Blogs, Websites, Listing Aggregator Accounts and, obviously, YouTube. In fact, agents and brokerage firms can create video content from simple still images, post them to YouTube, optimize them for search with tags, benefit from both Youtube & Google visibility and possibly generate leads they wouldn’t have normally had.

At Real Estate Blogsites we offer a low cost, image- based video tour content creation service.
