Is YouTube A Good Backlink Source For GMB Since It's Authoritative And Is Owned By Google?

In episode 253 of our weekly Hump Day Hangouts (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3zEydUI14dA), one viewer asked if YouTube is a good backlink source for GMB since it's authoritative and is owned by Google. The exact question was: Anyway, since YouTube is a Google property with lots of ""authority power"", I'm guessing that it would be a good idea to include it as a backlink source to help a GMB listing rank in the 3-Pack. Is that correct?, . .. and, if so, other than uploading a few niche-related videos to a niche optimized YT channel and including the GMB url in their descriptions, what else, if anything, can you do to use YouTube to help rank a GMB listing? #youtubeseo #youtubelinking #advancedlinkbuilding More videos about SEO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=20AURKe0smg&list=PL1oO3mUVEcfpUc753HsfSJpvv4bicf5_M More videos about SEO Questions Answered on Hump Day: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYv44gXnC68&list=PL1oO3mUVEcfo33kNReI6LwcM3MfgGoVpm Start with the Battleplan - your "Art of War" Playbook that combines decades of distilled SEO Experience and Cutting Edge Practices: https://ift.tt/2rmHAjA Ready to start OR grow profitable local digital marketing agency?
