1) Find and target the right audience - We can promote our video by keywords or against content to appear on You Tube search results or in the Google display network containing millions of websites.
2) Calculate the ROI – With AdWords, one can calculate how viewers are getting engaged with a brand. We can even calculate how many viewers watched the entire video or visited the website.
