Most blogger make money blogging with text where they write ideas in words of minimum 250 words and publish onto their blog to their readers and RSS followers. As the internet technology advances, the next generation of posting products and ideas is video blogging, also known as vlogging. As picture speaks a thousand words, the benefits of video blogging have been widely seen though a lot of resources are required behind it.
Can We Really Make Money With Video Blogging?
The answer is Yes! If you are looking from a business prospective, just think of it as a powerful tool to market your line of products and services using a commercial video all for free. You show your product and your visitor watch it. If they like it, they will buy it. Even if they don’t need your product but if you present it well, they will buy it too.
Otherwise, simply let your creativity juices flow by creating a short video of something unique which you think can attract people. A crazy idea, a step-by-step how to, or even a special moment, if it is truly something which worth your visitors spending 5 minutes of their time watching, they will do so. Next, embed some Adsense ads (currently for U.S only) in your videos and you can make money right away when your visitors click on your ads.
4 Essential Things You Need To Make Money Blogging With Videos :
1. A Good Web Or Video Camera
Invest in a good web or video camera. Well, at least for me, I do. Get one with better resolution so that the output looks better when playback or uploaded onto the web. To make sure you present your goods in the most optimal way, get the best web or video camera if your budget allows. It is a long time investment as video blogging has been seen as a long term trend.
2. A Good Working Microphone
If you like your sound or voice to be heard in your video blog, get a microphone as well. Record your voice as a voice over for promoting your product and its benefits to your consumers. Make the sound effects as enticing as your videos as sound is as important as your video in the world of video blogging.
3. Good Lighting Control And Background Selection
Most videos I watched on You-Tube are created with poor lighting quality. Lights are extremely important in a video production as it affects visually what you are going to present. Choose your background carefully and ensure that you illuminate entirely the area you are going to use to create video blog. The brighter the area, the crispier the images will be. Make sure that the background and the light complements each other.
4. Video Editing Software
You need a good video editing software i.e. Adobe Premium Pro to finalize your work. If you are low in budget, you can use the free version one that comes with your video or web camera. Touch up your final work by adding sounds, deleting some bad angles or inserting some still pictures or welcome message into your video.
Lastly, do not just present your videos alone, accompany them with a short summary in text to explain what are they about and why your viewers should watch it. Do not entirely give up your text and images to accommodate all possible viewers for your blog.
