8:35 PM

Nelson Lee, Product Manager at Google, Clearly explained on how to make your videos searchable in Google: In his Words:

"
Google delivers relevant content with our video index, which essentisally holds Google's knowledge of videos across the web. This index is updated with new videos as Google discovers them. When a user conducts a search, Google looks through the index to find relevant videos and then displays them in search results.

How do you make sure that your videos can be found on Google?

To include your Videos in Google's index, we just need some basic information about each of them. The best way is to provide Google this information by creating and submitting a Video Sitemap which is simply a link to your video with some additional information that can be included in search results. Creating a Video Sitemap is Easy.

Five things we need to know about each video:
1. The Title
2. A brief Description
3. Play page URL
4.Thumbnail Image URL
5. Raw Video File Location

One you are ready with all the above information fo your Video, Sign in and submit your sitemap using Google Webmaster Tools.

Submitting a Video Sitemap means that Google can better discover your videos and make them easy to find in search results.
