Questions about YouTube
Are YouTube links dofollow?
No. YouTube marks its links rel="nofollow", so they pass little ranking value. They still bring visitors and help show your business is real.
Is YouTube free?
Yes. Listing on YouTube is free.
How much work does a listing on YouTube take?
An article, a launch or a review: plan for an afternoon or more. How long approval takes is up to YouTube: many sites review a listing before it goes live.
Plan it, then tick it off.
