Have you ever wondered how to increase the chances of your videos appearing in Google's results? Over the last year, the Video Search team has been working hard to improve our index of video on the Web. Today, we're beginning the first in a series of posts to explain some best practices for sites hosting video content.
We
previously talked about the importance of
submitting a Video Sitemap or mRSS feed to Google and following Google's
webmaster guidelines. However, we wanted to offer webmasters an additional tool, so today we're taking a page from the
rich snippets playbook and announcing support for
Facebook Share and
Yahoo! SearchMonkey RDFa. Both of these markup formats allow you to specify information essential to video indexing, such as a video's title and description, within the HTML of a video page. While we've become smarter at discovering this information on our own, we'd certainly appreciate some hints directly from webmasters. Also, to maximize the chances that we find the markup on your video pages, you should make sure it appears in the HTML without the execution of JavaScript or Flash.
So, check out Facebook Share and RDFa and help Google find your videos!
