Maybe the single most powerful tool ever created for local video marketers is now 100% FREE.

Google used to charge $395 a YEAR for the Pro version of Google Earth, which allows you to make videos, but a little while back Google decided to give Google Earth Pro away for free with no restrictions.

Unlike all the other video makers, tons of content is included within Google Earth Pro. You don’t need to spend more money on expensive templates or money-sucking stock video and images.

The marketing gurus don’t tell you about Google Earth Pro because they can’t make any affiliate commissions from it. There’s no upsells or expensive reoccurring template memberships for them to profit from.

Yet the profit potential is “out of this world” for those willing to learn the techniques and strategies posted below.

You can make a video of how to get to a vacuum cleaner store in Wooster, Ohio or a store that sells socks in Estes Park, Colorado or a wedding chapel in Las Vegas, or the 5 best places to find Bigfoot.

This means you can greatly expand your “local” market to sell your video services to businesses that are just about anywhere on the planet. And you can make interesting and entertaining YouTube videos about practically every place and location there is.

Below, you will discover how to use Google Earth Pro to make videos. You’ll also find tons of suggestions, strategies and brainstorming ideas for you to use to create videos about virtually unlimited topics.

 

Download Google Earth Pro

The first step is to download Google Earth Pro here.

You’ll need to register the software by entering this key:
GEPFREE

You will also need to enter a username and email address when you register your version of Google Earth Pro.

Your Rights When Using Media From Google Earth:
http://www.google.com/permissions/geoguidelines.html

I don’t like interpreting things like terms and legal conditions. But be sure to read the entire page. It starts off as if Google is strict about using the imagery in Google Earth. However, further down the page they list acceptable ways to use your videos for profit.

The main thing is to be sure you keep the attributions that are automatically inserted into the images and graphics.

Getting Started With Google Earth Pro

Navigation

The toughest part of using GEP is probably mastering navigation to the locations you want to use and getting the “camera angle” just right.

Here’s an official video from the Google Earth folks showing you how to navigate using the GEP graphic controls:

Also, you can click and drag on an area of the map to move around and change the camera angle.

Really, the only way to master the navigation controls is to practice.

Also see the Google Earth docs for more info about navigating.

Navigating in Street View

Google’s Street View is a very powerful feature to use for money-making videos. Do note that Street View isn’t available for all locations across the globe.

Also, it’s very difficult if not impossible to create a good looking video using Street View.

The good news is, for the places that do have Street View, it’s like being a photographer that’s right on the spot and you can take “photographs” of places from a variety of angles and import them into any basic video editor to make videos..

Here’s another “official” training video showing you how to navigate in Street View. Note that they are using an older version of GEP. When in Street View now you will see yellow lines on the streets showing you where you can go. Use the arrow keys on your keyboard to guide you along the yellow lines.

Google Earth Keyboard Shortcuts

Using Google Earth’s navigation tools can take some practice and can be a little hard to use at times. I often find it easier to use my keyboard to get the best results. Here’s some of the most common commands using your keyboard and mouse. Note that some functions can be performed two different ways.

A Note About “Layers”

One of the first things you want to do is notice the “Layers” panel in the bottom left of GEP.

I suggest you un-check all the layers, as using these features will really slow down your computer processing speed.

You can experiment a bit with these features: 3D Buildings, Terrain, and Roads. 3D Buildings and Terrain take a lot of computing power and may give strange results when making videos using GEP. However, if you’re using still JPG images give them a look. Just be aware that Layers features can cause some issues and un-checked them if they do.

For making videos that make money using GEP, I suggest three strategies:

1. Fly over tours
2. Still images
3. Fly to single place

Fly Over Tours – These videos are best used when you need a video tour of multiple large areas where the locations don’t need to be shown close up. For example, if you were creating a video about “The Five Best Places to Find Bigfoot” you probably don’t want to use a specific location.

Still Images – Often, it’s easiest and best to export still images from GEP to use in a separate video editor to create your videos. You can use GEP to take “pictures” of the same place or thing from different angles to give your videos even more variety.

Fly to a Single Place – Use these short videos if you want to showcase a specific place like a fountain, bridge or a place of business, you can start with an over-head view of a larger area then “fly in” for a closer view of your featured place or thing. You can create a number of these types of videos, then combine them into a longer video using a separate video editing program.

There are two ways to make to create a video using Google Earth: “Live” and from a “Tour”.

Making a “Live” Video

When making a “Live” video, GE records movements “live” as you use your mouse and keyboard to move from place to place. It’s a lot like using Camtasia or other screen capture software and will record a video of what is happening on your computer.

The drawback is, making a “Live” video will take much more computer processing power and will often result in low quality videos. Also, if you make any errors or mistakes when moving around, those mistakes will be part of your video.

In most cases, it’s recommended that you first create a “tour” then use Google Earth to make a video using the tour. But there are times when you’ll want to make a “live” video.

To make a Live video:
Go to => Tools => Movie Maker => Create Movie

A popup window will appear:

Select the “Live mouse and keyboard navigation” button. See the red arrow.

For the other settings, on WINDOWS, I suggest using: (Sorry, I don’t know about Mac settings.)

• Supported Compression: Windows Media 8 Fair Quality – If you have a good PC, try a higher setting.
• Resolution: 1280×720. This will give you a HD video, an advantage in YouTube rankings. However, if your PC struggles with this setting, you may have to use a lower resolution.
• Click the Advanced checkbox and select Record to WMV format.

Note: Often you will be creating videos from a saved tour. When doing so, just click the “a saved tour” radio button and select the saved tour from the drop-down menu. Your other settings will be the same.

Video Export Settings

The link below is to a Youtube video from Google and it’s fairly long and you probably should watch the entire video. However, I’ve set the link to start the video the point where it talks about GEP video export settings. (22:24)

Recording Videos Using Google Earth Tours

Generally speaking, you’ll want to make videos using GEP “tours”. It’s a three-step process:

1. Create a tour
2. Save the tour
3. Make a movie from the tour

Videos: How to make movies using GEP tours:

Google Earth Tour and Movie Maker –  Probably the best over-view of using GEP to make movies I found on Youtube.

 

How to make a Google Earth tour – A quick, to the point video that focuses on creating tours.

 

Tip: When creating a video tour about a particular place like a building or statue, navigate to street view and adjust the camera angle how you want it. THEN set your place marker. This will have GEP use this point of view as it makes a tour stop.

How To Export Still JPG Images

Often it’s just easier and quicker to export still images and use them in another video editor.

Here’s Google’s tutorial for how to Save images from around the world.

Note: After you click the “Image” button on the tool bar, you will see a button “Map Options”. Click it and a drop-down menu will appear where you can select or deselect the options you want to include in the image. I generally deselect all options.

When choosing the resolution when exporting images, I try to choose the option closest to the video resolution I’ll be using when exporting the video I’ll use the image in, which is usually 1280×720 (or the closest option).

More Google Earth Training Videos

Above, I showed you the techniques I believe are the ones that are the most vital for making money using GEP. However, sometimes another point of view may help you learn better. Or you may want to take your GEP skills beyond the basics. So, I’ve included some GEP videos from other folks.

I have spent literally over 60 hours watching videos about GEP on Youtube. Below are links to the videos that I think give you the most value for your time.

Movie Making with Google Earth Pro – 13 minutes. A good, general over-view for creating videos using GEP. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxzkM6pUL-4Here’s a playlist of 6 videos from the guy that did the video just above that covers the basics of GEP. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFD708B289C411B43Real Estate Tour Examples –  1:47. Excellent example of how you might create videos to sell to real estate agents. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ggwTF9VPZgEMaking Polygons in Google Earth – 1:36. Polygons are shapes you can “draw” to highlight a building or area, like those used in the real estate tour video example just above. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8NvZZS5wrAHistorical Imagery – 1:10. Sometimes there are images from the past available in GEP that may be useful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vwHGG1dgujc

Using Google Earth Pro With Other Video Editors

Google Earth Pro is a very powerful program. However, it’s really a great “content creator” but it’s not very good as a video editor.  Plus, you can’t use it to cut out parts or lengthen other parts.

Other reasons to have a good video editor is that the settings for timings in Google Earth are for the entire video, such as the time it takes to get from one place to another and how long it “stops” at a place are the same for every place on the video tour.

Often it’s best to record the tours individually in segments with different settings, then piece them together in a separate video editor. Another benefit is many video editors have a “delay” feature that will let you stay on a frame in the video longer as well as being able to “cut” part of the video out and play faster, each will let you modify the timing of the video.

While you can record a voice over while you navigate using GEP, you can’t really use Google Earth to add background music sound track or sound effects. Using a separate video program is also better for adding text.

Research some quick facts and info about the locations in your tour videos and record a voice-over as if you are a “virtual tour guide”. If you don’t want to do voice-overs, be sure to add some interesting text using an external video editor. Either way, it will make your videos a lot better.

Adding a few sound effects can also spice up your GEP videos.

A good easy, but potent strategy is to use GEP as your own “camera” and export static JPG images of the places you want, then import the still pictures into another video editor.

Be a Video Making Genius With These Brainstorming Ideas and Strategies

Unless you’re selling videos to high-paying clients, making money from videos on Youtube is really a numbers game. To be honest, most of your Youtube videos probably won’t make a lot of money. You’re likely to make 90% of your money from 10% of your videos.

The key to making money is being able to make a lot of good, interesting videos as quickly and easily as possible. And Google Earth Pro is the best way to make good, interesting videos as quickly and easily as possible.

Making videos using Google Earth and the Planet Video system is about being able to research using Google.

Usually, you can just type in the name of a place or address directly into Google Earth but you’ll need to know the name or address of the place before you can discover it’s location or address.

If you’re from India but want to make a video about “Most Haunted Places in Southern California”, you’ll just need to know the names and locations of some haunted places. This is where Google comes in. And this is what’s so great about using Google Earth to make videos, you just need to be a good researcher.

When brainstorming ideas to use with GEP, there will be three general categories of viewers:

1. Visitors/tourists to an area
2. Locals/residents of a location
3. General Interest – For example, a video tour for “most haunted places in Southern California” or “places with the most big foot sightings” will likely appeal to people from a wide variety of locations with no plans of actually visiting that area. There are people interested in ghosts in all four corners of the planet.

These distinctions are important as they show us how to make money from each. Tourists can be monetized with any number of travel and tourism affiliate programs.

Local video tours can use topics like “3 best hardware stores” (or any other retail business) and give out “awards”. “Best Hardware Stores” is a topic that locals may be interested in, but tourists won’t be. You can use these videos to do local marketing and advertise local businesses. For example, a home remodeling company would be a great match for “Best hardware stores”.

General interest videos will appeal to the widest audience with fewer ways to monetize them. Generally, Adsense/Youtube monetization is best for these, but it can depend on the individual topic of each and if there are any affiliate programs for your target audience. I’m sure there’s affiliate products that will appeal to those interested in ghosts

Generally, a good formula to use for finding topic for creating videos is:

Adjective + Topic + Location

Now putting the elements together, we could have something like:

Most beautiful temples in Japan

Now just search Google for “List of most beautiful temples in Japan”, enter the locations in Google Earth and make a video.

1000 Largest Cities in USA – Also, each city will have a link to it’s state that will list the largest cities in that state.

• Largest Cities in the World –
• 100 Largest Countries in the World –

Maybe even more powerful is to use popular travel destinations and popular tourist attractions:
Most Popular Travel Destinations in the World

Local Keyword Finder Tool – Enter a city or zip and get a list of the surrounding cities. It has many uses and is especially powerful for prospecting for clients in need of local marketing services.

Some Quick Examples:
Most Popular Travel Destinations in the USA
Most Popular Tourist Attractions in [city]
Most Popular Tourist Attractions in [state]
Most Popular Tourist Attractions in [country]
Most Popular Tourist Attractions in USA
Most Popular Tourist Attractions in [continent]

You need to be creative when breaking topics into niches. For example, a topic like “Fastest Roller Coasters in Wyoming” may not work, as their aren’t a lot of roller coasters in Wyoming. You many need to use something like “Fastest Roller Coasters West of the Mississippi”.

Misc. Ideas

Below are some misc. ideas to get your creative juices flowing. Use them as starting points.

A big key for thinking of topics is thinking of different ways that you can “nichify” a topic as much as possible. The key to Youtube marketing is a combination of quality and quality. The more GOOD videos you have, the more likely it is you’ll make money.

Look at the many different ways we can nichify the topic “roller coasters”:

Roller Coasters – Biggest, Tallest, Most Popular, Fastest, Scariest, Oldest, Wood – Add in “Locations” and you have even more options.

With a little thought, an entire Youtube channel could be dedicated to roller coasters. You just need to think of as many categories that will work.

A simple but effective way is to use as many locations as possible for each topic. Another way to nichify is to add adjectives along with a location to a topic:

Best restaurants in Chicago
best gourmet restaurants in Chicago
best cheap restaurants in Chicago

When creating channels on Youtube, you can use different ways of categorizing content:

By location
By topic

For example, you could have a channel dedicated to the most interesting things to visit in Mexico and on this channel include a video about the pyramids in Mexico. You could also have another channel about pyramids around the world. With just a little modification, you could use a video of a Mexican pyramid on both channels, stretching your video making efforts and expanding your reach.

“Top Ten” Suggestions

Below are a list of suggestions for making general interest videos for YouTube using Google Earth.

Many people love lists of things and using countdowns is a very effective way to keep viewers’ attention and get them to watch your entire video, a very important aspect to ranking videos on YouTube.

Note that I used “Ten” but you can use any number you want.

Here’s some sites that feature Top Lists. Use them for inspiration for creating videos:
