Posted: January 19, 2016
Blogs are generally thought of as just words, and maybe an occassional image, to convey an opinion to, teach, or inform an audience. Recently, though, video content has become more and more popular on blogs. Great video content can intrigue visitors and keep them coming back for more.

How Stellar Video Content Can Improve Your Blog
Every great blog starts with good quality written content that draws readers in and offers valuable information worth sharing. But even if you’ve found a working formula to keep your blog up to speed there are ways to improve it and offer visitors a better, more engaging experience every time. Adding good quality video content can help you to not only draw new readers in but also facilitate access to the information you are providing. There are many benefits to uploading videos on your blog but you should make sure to check a few essential boxes before posting video content in order to be sure that it is tailored to your readers’ needs.
Be concise
Any content that you create needs to manage to keep users engaged and often times less is more. If you’ve ever written a very long blog post that had great quality but failed to get a lot of traffic you know that you need to be as concise and to the point as you can in order to maintain reader interest. The same principle applies for videos so try to keep them as short as you can. Don’t skip on important information but make sure you don’t add unnecessary footage no matter how visually appealing or interesting it is. Editing your video to contain shorter scenes that quickly showcase the point you are trying to get across will help keep your users engaged and entertained and increase the chances your video has to be watched through and through.
