Today we’re going to be getting your YouTube channel ready to dominate in 2017.

Let’s dive in!

At this point, we all know that video is the future of content marketing.

Cisco Forecast estimates that video will account for 69% of all consumer-based online traffic by 2017 and expects that numbers to rise to 80% by the year 2019.

It’s clear that video will only become more critical to the success of businesses.

And although Facebook is getting to be an amazing place for video, the top platform to share vlog and video content is Youtube.

While you’ll be able to exponentially increase your Facebook reach by running video ads and re-targeting campaigns, it won’t be enough to get you on the first page of Google.

Facebook simply doesn’t have that capability.

Video marketing is so effective because people become attached to you much faster than through text.

It’s the closest we can get to having a human experience online.

So, how are agents making the most of the second largest online search engine the world?

Take a look back at Easy Agents YouTube roundup to find out!

Since publishing the feature on these 10 agents, we’ve kept up with them online and they’re all still doing an amazing job!

For this post, we picked out the top 3 videos from 3 of these superstar agents of YouTube.

Let’s see what they’ve been up to!

We first introduced the pros at DNA Realty Group in our roundup.

One thing we love most about this team is that they vlog together.

It can be challenging to work with others, let alone create awesome content as a group.
