Mark Robertson of ReelSEO cranked a ball out of the park today with his post about how to control the search bar within embedded YouTube videos.
I wasn’t aware of the fix for this when I put up our post on YouTube’s search function, so-as it turns out-there is control over this function (sorry YouTube).
Truth is that ad/entertainment based video sites have no place in the local scene. Yes, there are SEO benefits of sending content to specific sites (not all), but when videos ARE the advertisement (ie…local video), we are going to see the generalist sites become less and less applicable to the local cause. It’s a natural progression and one that we are actually very excited about (of course).
