Online video company Fliqz announced on Tuesday that it has launched a new tool called SearchSuccess designed to increase the effectiveness of clients' video placement on major search engines.

According to the company, SearchSuccess "addresses many of the common flaws in existing video SEO strategies." Rather than submit a video to YouTube to increase Web traffic, Fliqz works with its partners to submit their videos to Google through the company's Webmaster tool.

Fliqz claims that with the help of SearchSuccess, "more than two-thirds of all videos submitted produce a first-page Google search result, and up to 25 percent have resulted in a number one Google ranking." That said, it didn't specify how many videos it has submitted, so it's important to take that number with a grain of salt.

SearchSuccess is available as an add-on to Fliqz's Gold service, which costs $499 per month. SearchSuccess tacks on an additional $250 per month to the service.
