There are so many statistics out there that prove how effective using videos can be for small business owners.

For instance, 64% of consumers make a purchase after watching branded social videos.

And 68% of consumers prefer watching videos to learn about new products or services...

...as compared to articles, infographics, eBooks, and presentations.

And we’ve seen it firsthand for our clients, like how we got over 24,000 video views for this pedal tour sightseeing service which led to 92 actual purchases.

Or how we used a video in this eCommerce client’s ad campaign to drive over $10,000 in revenue.

But for you to see these kinds of results on Facebook, you can’t just use any video. It needs to be native and optimized among other things. 

So in today’s video, we're going to show you how to upload a video on Facebook.

And at the end, we're sharing a couple of key tips you need to keep in mind.

Let's get started!

Facebook never loads up my video when I upload it. It’s frustrating

[HispleMedia]

Good one! I want to start posting on Facebook but I'm in Nigeria and Facebook is discriminating against Nigeria...meaning you can't monetize your videos from Nigeria. It thinking of the best possible way to go about it. Thanks for this.

Informative video, nevertheless uploading videos to facebook seems overwhelming compared to uploading to youtube. I'm still wondering what "native" video means... Can I use the same exact file on facebook which I uploaded to youtube, or do I have to re-render it with different settings?

1- Are you uploading from a business suit? Because your page looks very different From mine?
2- Do other ppl watch your videos besides your followers?
3- Is it better to upload from a personal page or Blog Page? I hardly ever use FB.
4- I am just trying to upload my YT videos.

Great video. Quick question: I want to advertise a trip my company is organizing down to Antigua in November. I just uploaded a video about our trip on my Facebook page. What is the best way to promote my Facebook page to tennis players and tennis enthusiasts?

Why would you not recommend uploading a .srt file?

[quinnmoody]

Suggestion try to talk a little slower. Yes you know all this information like the back of your hand. But your speeding through it Im new to this and I have to constantly pause your video to absorb what your doing and then go back to it.

Quick question: i just finished setting up my business page but the thing is i already posted videos on my profile which i turned into a professional mode. My question is does my profile has the right to get monetized as well??? Thanks

[mariacalma]

When I upload a video, it only appears on the "Video" section, but not on the feed of the page. Thank you

I've been uploading videos to Facebook from my mobile device. Some of my vids look nice, but some look tacky. I can receive stars but now I'm in the process of trying to receive ads but i still need several thousand views in order to get monetize with ads. I'm wondering if there is an app i can download to my mobile device that will help my videos look more professional.

There is no photo/video and there hasn't been one for over a year, there's only an option for Photos, I don't know anyone on Facebook that can upload their own videos anymore.
