Video Blog = Vlog

You’ve probably seen the term Vlog being used.  The term simply is a combination of video and blog and is used by folks that are using more videos on their sites than just simply written content.

Using videos on your sites is a perfect way to connect with your readers and now viewers.  With this age of technology and the fears that main stream media is placing on individuals, the use of videos will place your audience at ease.  The use of videos will show your true intention of your message.  It will show your facial expressions, as well as your mannerisms.  This simple connection is amazing and many will come back for more and more.

So stop making excuses.  Get out that video camera or you can use your handy webcam as well, and start sharing videos on your site.  No fancy equipments are needed to build that instant connection with your visitors.  Remember to use lighting that will be flattering; shadows are distracting.  If you are unsure about the lighting, shoot your video outside with natural lighting.  Be aware of your surroundings, that is extremely important.  No one wants to see laundry in the background or a messy office.  The same goes when shooting outside, be aware of your surroundings.

Whatever you choose, just do it! You’ll see how simply and fun adding videos to your site will be.
