What would you
click on?

| Author and entrepreneur Roger J Lown. |
I have viewed
videos on YouTube and noticed the links in the description box below the video.
I researched this area to find out about links, what they are for and what they
do. Links are Internet computer codes that when clicked on bring a person to a
page of information or to a site such as Amazon if the author of the video is
selling or recommending a product. For an entrepreneur it is an honest and
well-worked way of making an income by providing a service to the viewer.
Links that lead
to an information page or an Internet store where recommended products can be
found can also be found on an entrepreneur’s site or page such as Facebook, a
blog, or a web site purchased be the entrepreneur. The question I have is this;
are viewers on YouTube and readers on Facebook, blogs, and websites actually
clicking on these links and making purchases? If they are not my next question
when will this way of shopping and receiving information become another form of
future practice?
I have tested a
few links on YouTube and a few on other sites and they seem to work fairly
well, although purchased a product through such avenues as Internet links. I
also performed some brief research on YouTube with the question, “Do People
Click on Links” and the answer that appeared most was the question if the
potential customer had trust in the owner of the video, blog, or site.
My research and
past experience tells me that if potential customers don’t click on an
entrepreneur’s links below their video or in their post or page, chances are
the curious but cautious clicker does not click the link to products. Links to
information seem to be less risky, so a viewer may click on links for more
information.
One entrepreneur
on YouTube suggested that the owner of the video who is providing information
or products for purchase make a video or a blog post asking viewers and readers
if they would like more information and where to how to purchase products to
comment and contact the owner of the video, post, or blog. In my opinion this
is a very good idea of asking the viewers of video and readers of posts and
blogs what they would trust and feel comfortable and secure with.
