I was looking at the most recent batch of Movers and Shakers today, and I noticed a site among the top three that is not in any way affiliated with March Madness. Once it caught my attention, I felt like digging in to see what was going on.
The site is Avaaz.org and they're into global social justice issues, organizing online, that sort of thing. They have an international staff of campaigners, so they have a decent Traffic Rank. But while they usually are in the fifty thousands, the past week they've been going below ten thousand. Why the bump? Did they purchase ads on coffee sleeves or run a commercial during a college basketball game recently?
No. They entered a contest on YouTube and won an award for best video in the political category. On the page where their video "Stop the Clash of Civilizations" is announced the winner, there's a link to their website.
Well, congrats to them for record traffic to their site, and good timing on the win given their current actions regarding the recent unrest over Tibet.

I was amazed too that formerhip hop rap music star MC Hammer "Staney Burrell" noticed the power of YouTube when they were just above the pizza shop, befre they became universally known. Now, the ultimate potential of uploading video to YouTube is unlimited, as you can capture, engage and retain a wide audience online for FREE, in addition to driving organic traffic back to your website or blog, just by adding a link in the content of your YouTube videos...:-)

Totally agree with story. Although I've been experiencing problems getting my stuff uploaded. Wrong Formats, Wrong Titles, etc. etc. I'm using WMV and other good forms yet still no. must be doing something wrong.

Youtube is wasting Time,
i don't more wanna used Service of Google and Youtube in future. This Free Webservice on Youtube where most sign In can make your own page or upload video or share vidoe , put video playlist or favorite pictures this Free Service can always take away! Its
* Wasting Time * youtube and Google are not user-friendly remove everyday million work made by home user in order" that we violate term of Youtube and Google Service"!
You tube is best used for embarrasing politicians or publishing celebrity mishaps.
