I have read that adding video to a website will dramatically help your website with page rank ect is this accurate and if so do I need to run the video through you tube or can I run it myself will it make a difference? Which is better video or a blog to help your seo page rank ect?
Well, you read wrong. Adding video may help the Internet visitor get a better understanding of your web site and that's important but it won't have any effect on Google PageRank. Adding video is a good idea though; after all, what's the use in getting a visitor from the search engine if the user won't be encouraged to make a phone call. If video amplifies the visitor's experience then add it.
There's no such thing as SEO page rank. The purpose of a blog is to give a more behind the scenes look into your business and business ideas. Every article you write will create unique content. This is what the search engines like; unique content. Throw a link to your important web pages here and there so as to gel the blog with the website and both will help each other in the search engine results pages.

Maybe it needs to be said this way.....are concerned with page rank..or are you concerned with traffic to your site? As you well know..a good video can generate thousands of views...free....and by adding a link...you should gain benefit.
A good example.....when you search on google under many keywords....what are you seeing on the first page????
