In healthcare marketing, video for social media has got to be one of the fastest moving and important trends. Don’t miss these recent upgrade moves by three of the biggest social platforms. If the rapid growth and popularity of social media has been amazing, the social video trend is downright explosive. Hospital and healthcare marketing professionals need to double down on the form and format that audiences love. There’s a widening video sweet spot that engages healthcare viewers. As a result, Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook all have rolled-out new and/or better social video sharing options. The options for social media video are expanding. These enhancements mean better content, marketing and advertising options.

Now 140 Seconds on Twitter: The big news for marketing-minded professionals is that the Twitter video sharing allowance has ballooned from a mere 30 seconds to 140 seconds. That’s a giant increase for users. As Twitter describes it, “With video on Twitter, you can capture and share life’s meaningful moments — from your perspective.” It’s easy to speculate that the two-minute, 20-second allowance is a comfy fit for paid video ads.

Now Native Video on LinkedIn: You know about video clips via LinkedIn. The always carry a familiar proviso. Until now, a third-party—such as YouTube—facilitated your LinkedIn videos. As of this month LinkedIn supports “native video” for the first time. LinkedIn supports the video directly.

The LinkedIn member has more content control when the intermediary (let’s say YouTube) is eliminated. What’s more the viewer stays with LinkedIn instead of being pulled away from your news feed. You’ll need the new app, LinkedIn Record, “for thought-leaders to share timely insights with their followers through the richness of video.” [See: iTunes and LinkedIn]
