A Vlog is a video blog. It is producing and sharing your content in video form. Through vlogging, people can share their opinion on any topic and produce content about anything that they wish for.
The popularity of vlogging has and is rising at a rapid pace. The rise in the popularity of video blogs can be attributed to the mere fact that anybody who has a camera which can record a video and an internet connection can become a vlogger. So, it is much easier to become a vlogger.
Everybody today has access to the internet. People nowadays are more likely to watch a video rather than reading a document to get knowledge about something. It is considered to be much more convenient and it also adds a personal touch to any post. Thus this helps to target a much larger audience.
But the question is, “How do you start vlogging?”
We here at ShoutMeLoud will help you to get answers to all your queries.
That’s why this week’s #ShoutersChat was: “Starting a Vlog”
In this week’s #ShoutersChat, we discussed everything from a vlog being a good or a bad idea to the top platforms to upload a vlog. We also talked about the basic equipment needed to make a vlog. Promotion of your vlog is also what we discussed in this week’s #ShoutersChat.
Here is a recap of each question and the top answers by Shouters.
Q1. Why do you think vlogging is a good or bad idea?
From the Shouter’s community:
A1. It's an amazing idea. The internet is fast today. People consume video more conveniently than reading. YouTube viewers and hours of videos uploaded is increasing each day. Vlogging is must to reach wider audience. #ShoutersChat

A.1 vlogging is good for no doubt, because it helps to increase brand awareness and the numbers of backlinks as well.
And the main benefit of vlogging is, we can create videos of our post. Because people love to watch videos compare that reading blog post.— Ravi Dixit (@Staymeonline) January 13, 2018
A1. Video content is the next big thing. Google is filling its SERP with all kind of content, and it tends to rank video and images better. In fact, pages with videos have more engagement metrics than text type. #shouterschat

Q2. What are some top platforms to upload your vlog?
From the Shouter’s community:
A2. Youtube is the king. Since Google has acquired youtube, there is no better platform than youtube. Uploading on Youtube and sharing on Facebook & Instagram would help reaching to potential customers #ShoutersChat
— Mohd Adnan (@shoutadnan) January 13, 2018
A2. Youtube is the second best search engine so I will go to Youtube.
and also use video as a lead magnet. #shouterschat— Bitu Rauth (@rauthbitu) January 13, 2018

Q3. What will be the length of your vlog and how often will you publish a new video?
From the Shouter’s community:
A3: I do a weekly tax tip, it's always 2-5 minutes. A weekly vid less than 10 minutes is the plan for 2018. As well as some instagram stories giving people a peek into my life. #ShoutersChat

A3) If I start with vlog, I will do videos of length 2-4 minutes. Creating longer videos will end up boring the viewer. Short videos will keep up them intact. #ShoutersChat
— Nirmal Kumar (@nirmal_kumar_a) January 13, 2018
A3. That is something I haven't started yet. Will need to plan it. Anything between 5 to 20 minutes is great. Lot of things can be explained in videos in short time. Regarding the frequency the key is to create valuable content, so it may differ #ShoutersChat
— Mohd Adnan (@shoutadnan) January 13, 2018
Q4. What equipments will you use for your vlog?
From the Shouter’s community:
A4.1)@NikonIndia /tripod/mike
2)@SamsungMobile with phone tripod +ear phone
3)Laptop /mike
Whenever wherever whatever it takes! #Shouterschat— DrAmrita BasuMisra👼 (@misra_amrita) January 13, 2018
A4) I would require Camtasia and a laptop. That's more than sufficient to create videos. #ShoutersChat
— Nirmal Kumar (@nirmal_kumar_a) January 13, 2018
Q5. How are you planning to promote your vlog?
From the Shouter’s community:
i like to promote any social media where my audience are hanging out. however, I also like embed videos on my blog. #Shouterschat
— Bitu Rauth (@rauthbitu) January 13, 2018
A5) I would like to curate my old posts through vlog. Because, it is easier to do and will add more value to my site too. #ShoutersChat
— Nirmal Kumar (@nirmal_kumar_a) January 13, 2018
a5: Social media, email and hopefully guest vlogging to gain a wider audience. I was recently asked to be a part of a virtual summit, this will hopefully be a good promotional opportunity #ShoutersChat
