I focused on adding some good frequently searched keywords in the title and tags.

This might help you out; 10 "DoFollow" video sharing sites

Get other site owners to link to your video!

If I were you, I'd make more specific videos. Your using a broad keyphrase.. just do like you would do when building minisites, search after a well-searched keyphrase that is related to your niche

Sami, I tested the opimization for my Youtube videos and it works like any page promotion, you have to get links pointed to the video pages.

Targetting the keywords or keyphrases for videos may work with highly competitive keywords that bring traffic.

If I may suggest one thing to help you, add a music background after all youtube or any video publisher sites are entertainments.

Submit the videos anywhere you can and enjoy your traffic.

You can post it on your own site or blog and it will be seen by people.

Hi,

So just treat it as like a squidoo lens. I get the idea.

Thanks

I completely agree with natural element.. all of them are quite helpful as I myself try d same

This is what I do when I promote a video:

Post it in my forum
Book mark it at sites like stumble, mr wongs, digg,,,,,
Post it on other forums that I'am a member of
Tell my friends and family members about it
Email a link of the video to a bunch of my friends
Post the video on myspace or facebook

stuff like that
