- 2. If you haven’t got as many visitors to your vlog as you hoped, or haven’t actually started vlogging yet we have gathered some tips that might help you on your way…
- 3. When you record a video – look straight into the camera This helps you connect with your audience, and they feel you are talking directly to them.
- 4. Editing Editing your videos helps create some variety, and keeps your audience interested. You don’t need a lot of editing skills. Remember that often less is more.
- 5. You can move around, not the camera! Your audience might find it confusing and messy if the angle of the camera keeps changing. So always keep the camera steady in one place, while you are open to move around and change positions.
- 6. Write a script If you’re not sure what to say, and find yourself deleting what you just recorded, it might be useful to write down what you want to talk about. That way there will be a pleasant flow in your dialogue, and you don’t have to record the same part over and over again.
- 7. Ask questions During or in the end of your video, ask questions and invite your viewers to answer in the comment section. By doing so, you engage your viewers and encourage further discussion. Maybe someone makes an interesting point you want to discuss in your next video?
- 8. Comments If someone has taken the time to write you a comment, you should take the time to answer. Most people like to share their opinion, especially online where they can do it anonymously. Let them know you see and appreciate their comments. If they’re appropriate and sensible, of course. Don’t waste your time on spammers or idiots.
- 9. Make your own logo/intro If you have the time and/or skills, or know someone who does, create a short intro or logo to include in the beginning of all of your videos. By utilizing your own logo/intro, it will help connect all of your work together, and you are able to establish yourself as a brand.
- 10. If you’re using other social media platforms in addition to YouTube, e.g. Twitter, Facebook, Google+, you can incorporate your logo there as well, which will create a nice flow throughout all of the platforms, connect everything together and help you establish yourself. The use of additional social media platforms are beneficial for you since you get a greater online presence, and can connect with a larger group of potential viewers
