Google Search Results Now Offer Video Previews

Last Update: March 28, 2011

Have you noticed a little magnifying glass icon in your search results?

This is Google’s new feature where you can now have a preview of the search results websites prior to clicking any of the links. Yikes! Talk about making a first impression!

Well, since Google has implemented combined search results including videos, they have decided to implement video preview of any video search results.

Here’s what I mean..

I just searched ‘how to fix a golf slice’ and here is the result.

Within those 4 window panes is a snippet of the video that I have hovered my mouse over. at the top of this video preview is a small volume icon where you can even listen to the video snippet.

As affiliates, how do you think we can take advantage of this opportunity?

Great idea. Im thinking we can even rank for difficult niches that didnt have video before. We dont get a pane of different shots in the video here (im in england) with that feature we just get a screen shot of the whole page.

Cool stuff. Is there anything the big G doesn't do? Definitely more of a reason to leverage Video marketing within our campaigns :D
