FSG Living Media Strategies for video posting and endurance from FSG Messaging and Optics Strategist Loren Weisman discussing the FSG Living Media methodologies.
FSG Living Media Strategies for video posting and endurance.
There is more to your video than the video and the content itself for the moment.
When a video is strategized for the long term, while engaging with the content in both the short and long term, then aligning with the present compliance for uniformity, liability and optimization, your video can have a longer term level of endurance and authority over time.
Many take the approach of posting more short videos, more often to gain attention. And while some of these quick shots, simple edits and posts to certain sites can garner attention in the short, taking the time to add videos that are seeded, strategized, sorted and detailed correctly can help with your authority, online integrity and authenticity.
Know your stuff. FSG Living Media Strategies Step 1 for videos.
Have a topic you can authoritatively, authentically and honestly speak on.
Might seem silly to say, but so many are using AI or copying other peoples content, then they talk like they are experts on something they know little to nothing about. So please, speak on that which you know.
Share with subjectivity. FSG Living Media Strategies Step 2
Consider choosing a tone where you stand in subjectivity over making claims and statements that can be countered. Even with the proof of concepts, data and studies to back up your facts… consider holding a subjective tone of opinion.
Optimization wise, it set you up for less liability and better distribution of that content.
Mistakes are ok. FSG Living Media Strategies Step 3
Consider not trying to edit till perfect. Many use so many editing tools, graphics and toys to almost present a smoke screen of looking more professional over presenting a professional view. Slip ups are ok! And in some ways, the less than perfect video can allow you to be a little more real to an audience and show that you know the topics you speak on, over crazy editing.
The one take, fresh and real approach, mess ups and all can help with this.
And last but not least… the video checklist. Step 3 through (a lot).
1. Titles that are set at or under 60 characters and over 52 with 2 primary keyword phrases.
2. Titles researched for endurance searches to work in short & long term searching.
3. Language assignments for correct optimization.
The video itself
4. Creating Video.
5. Editing Video to the average of just under 3 min in most cases. Also, consider running the video through an audio editor, to ensure volumes are strong. I like Auphonic.
6. Editing pertinent graphics internally in or into the video.
7. Creating YouTube optimized Friendly Cover Art for Video using the lead title.
8. Adding Bumper music for in and out or lead words for in and outs. (Licensed or free licensed.)
9. Adding Primary sub water mark in body of video or at front or end screen parts.
10. Adding Secondary “In Video Watermark” for Brand
11. Uploading Video at 480 for Speed over Quality of video.

34. Publishing Video to distribute across core Social Media.
35. Sharing that video after it is posted.
36. Using Google Translate and the automated subtitle option, consider adding a series of additional language options to each video.
As proof of concept and proof of practice, I apply all of the above to my videos and my YouTube channel, which you can see here:
