How to Host Your Video Salesletters for Best Results!
A question I get all the time is HOW do I host my Video Salesletters. This is CRUCIAL if you want to see great results with your video. Spending all the time on a KILLER sales video and then hosting it the wrong way is like spending all your time on re-building a ’67 Corvette and dropping in a Ford Prius Engine. Sure, it’s going to look great, but it’s just not going to perform the way you want it! So, here’s all you need to do in three easy steps…
1. Host with Amazon’s S3 Servers
You don’t want to slow your site down to a crawl by hosting your videos on your own server. Amazon’s S3 Servers are lighting-fast (Corvette Motor!), and they don’t bog down your site’s loading time. Plus it’s super cheap! Get Your Amazon S3 Server access here!
2. Create Your Custom Video Player w/E.V.P. 2.0
This is an absolute must! I’ve been going back and forth with EasyVideoPlayer and EZS3.com for some time and I FINALLY settled on EVP! Why?? ….because it rocks! It’s easy interface allows for you to create different player styles and options…but that’s only the beginning! Here is a short list of my favorite features:
- Magic Delay “Add to Cart” Buttons
- Detailed Tracking and Video Analytics
- Easy Split-Testing
- Video Lightbox Options (makes your videos look super sexy!)
- and Video Elements-which all your video and sales page to literally come alive!!

3. Embed on OptimizePress (or Authority Pro!)
After you upload your completed Video to EasyVideoPlayer & S3, and you’ve adjusted all of your custom settings, it’s time to embed the special code (that EVP spits out) on your sales page! There are 2 solutions I recommend for Killer-Looking Sales Page that don’t require custom coding work! I have been using OptimizePress (a Theme for WordPress) but I just got my hands on Authority Pro 2-and it freakin’ rocks! Both are great-but you are gonna need ONE of the two for sure!!
Well, there you have it! That’s exactly how I successfully host my Video Sales Letters and private member videos! I’ll keep you posted with further tips on exactly HOW I use these tools for better optimizing and conversions! In the meantime, leave your comments & suggestions below! Thanks!

James – Thanks for this. My old S3 software was great in its day but is built for flash (yikes!) I need to revisit this ASAP and will head over to check this out!
James … Amazon s3 – nothing could be more complicated than their endless “bucket” system.
Have a look at http://TryEasyWebVideo.com for your video hosting, custom players, annotations, unlimted hosting for only $20/month.
It replaces the need for 2 work flows … Amazon + EWP
Tyr it for free for 30 days and you will never use anything else.

Checked out Authority Pro and it looks like an amazing all in one marketing system however its for word press and our website is on joomla. Also we use infusionsoft for our email distribution and nurture campaigns and it listed a-weber and others but not infusionsoft. Can you or your community recommend an alternative to Authority Pro that runs with Joomla?
