Video Blog: Connecting With Your Target Audience

Having a video blog or simply putting video on your existing blog is a great way to connect with your target market and share the passion you have in your ministry or business.

More and more entrepreneurs are using video to earn money blogging as they take advantage of the video watching craze online.

In fact, video blogging is becoming more and more popular and mentioned more often as one successful online marketing strategy.

Taking a quick look on Technorati, an internet search engine for searching blogs, you will see the number of people using video with their blog sites on the rise dramatically.

You know the old saying: "A picture is worth a thousand words". Well, people by the thousands are taking advantage of this by using web syndication through YouTube, Viddler, DailyMotion, and many other sites. In addition, you can post your own videos to your pages on social media sites such as MySpace and FaceBook. (Some other great "social" sites to consider as a Christian would be Shoutlife, the Christian Market Leaders,and Tangle.com, formerly GodTube.

The advantages of a having video on your blog is you control the content on your blog site! Many open source content management systems, like WordPress, enable posting of video allowing bloggers to host and administer their own video blogging sites.

Business And Ministry Marketing Video Blog



I love video so much that much of my blogging lately is in video and not writing!

I use video in my affiliate marketing strategy with golf products as well as in health products to help people lose weight and gain energy!

Check out some video blogging from my Ministry Marketing Blog

Recently, I've devoted a special place for My Tuesday Video Blog of inspiration and wisdom amidst your business or ministry marketing journey!


So why should you consider video blogging as part of your business or ministry marketing strategy?

  • Video offers a more comprehensive experience.You can show more emotion, share the heart and passion to connect with your audience.

  • Many people prefer watching a video explaining an idea or thought than reading the printed information.One recent study concluded that people were six times more likely to watch a video than reading printed information to understand a subject.

  • Many are learning how to make money with a blog by incorporating video. It's a powerful affiliate marketing strategy as well. Click here to learn more about the NUMBER ONE video tool in every successful marketers pocket!

  • You can identify your video to your own domain name. Basically, it's worth repeating. You can control the videos shown on your page! You don't have to worry about something inappropriate being shown near your videos.

  • Video blogging can be an extension of your ministry. By video blogging, you can start your own "channel", your own video ministry, sharing your anointing and gifts to thousands.


How to get started

Getting started with adding video to your blog is easier and easier these days. I have had extensive experience using all sorts of cameras through the years. Today, there are more quality cameras that are coming out with lower price tags.

The easiest and fastest way to start is to get The Flip Camera!



I am amazed over and over again by how easy it is to use. My kids love it. They are always taking it with them wherever they go. I usually have to hide it if I want to use it!

How easy is it? My 6 year old son got a hold of the Flip Video camera this past summer and shot himself singing. I made his little adventure into a "Flip YouTube Video Moment", a great fun post for any video blog!


Other pocket size cameras include the Creative Labs Vado Pocket Video Camcorder, Kodak Zi6 HD Pocket Video Camera, and DXG DXG-567VKC 5.0 Megapixel High-Definition Pocket Digital Video Camera In Clamshell.

One reason why I like the Flip Video camera and the ones listed above is the "Flip" out device that can be inserted into your computer. You insert it to one of your USB ports, download some software that comes with the camera, and you have the basic means to save the video to your computer and upload them to your blog. If you want to get a little fancier, there are some quality inexpensive software you can buy to give you more options, such as adding your link to your video blog or website at the bottom of the video.


Be real and "shoot" from the heart.

To really get this video blogging started and on its way, you have to be willing to take the time to be real, set the camera up, and shoot! Don't be afraid. Share from the heart. Forget your ego and what YOU look like. It's not about you, it's about them! You have the opportunity to help that person who may stumble upon your blog site, needing a word of hope. Granted, you don't want to be in your hair rollers or bathrobe when you are on camera, but don't "wig out" over a bad hair day.

Finally, the video wave is starting to roll across the internet. Now is the time to take the necessary steps to get a camera and ride the wave! One thing you will notice in the end is more traffic to your blog site, more people reading and hearing about your ministry, and more hearts touched by your anointing!

In addition, it's another way to earn extra money by sharing your information, products, or service!
