In today’s highly digitized environment, video content marketing is not a novel concept for anyone. Video marketing is something that everyone wants to undertake for their brand since everyone knows how important videos are and how much user engagement videos get. In addition to this, there are numerous social media channels available, such as Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter, and many other social media platforms, that can be used to increase the effectiveness of the marketing approach. Studies have shown that more than 8 billion videos are viewed on Facebook every single 24 hour period. These studies also suggest that a billion hours of video content are viewed on the platform every single day. This study will provide you an indication of what the actual amount of reaches are for each platform on its own, including YouTube, which is the second largest search engine in the world after Google. Today, we will discuss the specific length that a video clip ought to be in order to be optimally shared on various social media channels. People have a limited attention span, which is why the video should not be longer than two minutes. Before we begin addressing the length of videos on various social media platforms, we should make you aware of this fact. Because of this, the video should not be longer than two minutes. 1- A login to Facebook The duration of the video sent to Facebook should be between two and four minutes. You shouldn’t be focusing on the length of the video as much as you should be focusing on the quality of the material within the video. You need to produce material that is concise but of high quality if you want to get the results that you are looking for. Because this is the time at which the viewer must be brought from Facebook to your website, the first few seconds of your video should be the most appealing element of your video. According to the findings of the study, seven percent of the value of a video is conveyed within the first three seconds. 2- Instagram When it comes to Instagram videos, there are three distinct sections: stories, feeds, and IGTV. You need to take each of these into consideration when creating the video so that it is formatted correctly. When it comes to IGTV, there is no limit, so you can make the video as long as you want and communicate all of the information you want to convey. The maximum length for a video in your feed is one minute, and the maximum length for a video in your story is fifteen seconds. While you are making stories, you should arrange your material to be presented in 15 seconds, and it should be interesting enough to prevent people from skipping it. As people continually scroll through their news feeds, you only have 1-2 seconds to catch the user’s attention and convince them to watch the entire video in order to increase the likelihood of a conversion. News feeds should be up to one minute in length, and within this one minute, the first three seconds are very important. YouTube three The users who frequent YouTube are distinct from those who frequent Facebook, Instagram, or any of the other social media platforms. Users typically visit YouTube with the sole intention of watching videos, and they are well aware of the fact that, in comparison to other platforms, they are more likely to encounter lengthy videos on YouTube. Therefore, YouTube’s length requirements are not very stringent, but the platform does have a few quirks that users need to be aware of. YouTube only starts counting the view after the first thirty seconds of a video, thus the content of your video for the first thirty seconds needs to be compelling enough to keep the viewer watching; if the user watches the entire video, you’ve achieved success.
