Video-sharing platforms are among the most popular ones on the internet. They are outpacing conventional television and garnering millions of views daily. Unsurprisingly, they're catching the attention of book marketing pros looking to promote their clients' work. Self-published authors trying to publicize their books are also paying attention. Getting mentions of your book in online videos, or making some of yourself to become visible, always help. The internet is niche, and you can find ways to reach your target audience if you're creative. Creativity reigns supreme, and a small budget can work.

Producing an online video, in many cases, requires a smartphone and an idea at maximum. We've all seen things go viral that were made spontaneously by someone with no special skills. A slick presentation is fine if you know how to do it, but it's not a prerequisite for success. If you make something fun, quirky, informational, or creative, you have a good chance that people will share it. Things posted online last forever, and sometimes the video you post may take a while to take off. Other things catch on immediately and become instant hits; you can also try posting several.

Once you've succeeded with a video, you'll learn what works for you. You'll also start developing an audience if you launch a channel and attract followers. Fiction writers, especially in the young adult genre, have opportunities for reviews and endorsements from BookTubers, many of whom have sizeable audiences. When they read and rave about a book, their followers will order copies. When you post videos of your own, take full advantage of the description sections. They are what search engines use to feature videos in their result pages. Wise use of keywords always helps you do better.

Just as there were TV and radio in the old days, there are video-sharing platforms and podcasts today. The latest statistics show an impressive number of adults listen to podcasts weekly or monthly. Each year, the listenership grows, and podcasts, like blogs, gain stature—long-form audio content, whether monolog or interview, builds intimacy with listeners not present with video. Podcasts are low-cost to produce and often done in a series. When listeners enjoy one episode, they tend to come back for more. As they do, you'll deepen your relationship with the audience and make more promotional progress.
