New Video Post!
- Comments: 24
Thanks to all of our comments and recommendations on our last v-post. We decided to try again. Topics include: quiting your day job, what you wish you knew when you first started blogging, and two most awesome blogs this week.
Make sure that you join in and make your own post! We will of course link to anyone that does this.
Enjoy!
Links to articles mentioned in video
Stephen Welton - Selling Is Like Water Is To Life. You Need To Have It!
Create Business Growth - Where to Find New Blogs to Link To and Why Outbound Links Are So Important
Nice video; good luck with the challenge
Hi Josh! And congratulations on quitting your day job!
It was nice to watch the video post, but I still have some concerns about this new trend of blogging on video:
1) No links: For example when you told about Stephen Welton, I became interested to check out his site. If I could have clicked on a link I’d already have a new tab open on Firefox to see what his site is all about. Now all I have is his name on a piece of paper :). Also from a monetizing point of view I wonder how affiliate links would work on video blogs…
Maybe an idea you might want to try would be to add a list of referenced sites in the blog post, just below the video. This way after watching the video, the visitors could click on the links and wouldn’t have to worry about forgetting the links.
2) No support for skimming: What I usually do when reading blog posts is that I quickly skim through the content to see if it is interesting enough for me to read. In your post you handled this better than most people I’ve seen video blogging: The “topics include” part of your post is really important.
But in general it’s great to see you trying out new things! Keep up the good work!
Great video again guys, this one seemed more professional. I think that mentioning great posts over video is also a great idea.
WOW - Great improvement over last week. I really liked how the conversation flowed in this vid. Good job taking the feedback on lighting and looking at the camera. It really helped with conveying your information.
Great video! One more step to make it perfect . . . Try smiling a little more! Both of you!
Thanks for the feedback! That is a good idea about the links. Next time we will have to figure something out. I did realize the same thing about summarizing the topics rather than writing a really descriptive article about it, so I am glad you are on the same page. Again, thanks for the feedback!
Awesome vid, guys! Watching the production of this was a plus for sure ^_^
haha nice outro!! great stuff guys!!
Dude! WP kicks Blogger shaped ass.
Great post guys!
Loved the lil’ bits of video editting BTW - nice finishing touches to a great show!
hey guys - great video! the editing is really professional too. i think these video blogs are going to catch on very quickly. and i agree with david, wp kicks butt…! again, great job!
Thanks a lot for the comments! I hope to see more of you participating. Ms Danielle I hope that the vblog posts catch on!
Looks like you got something going on here . . . I like how you guys keep it professional and not too stupid like the digg podcasts . . . good luck guys!
