Another reason to Vlog!

Incorporating a vlog to your present blog is a good idea. You enjoy traffic from both groups of people who either prefer video or informative text posts. Combining the two in one post also increases the post's and your blog's interest to Google.

But do not forget that you still have another post to take care of - the Youtube description area! This area is another place where you should pay some attention to, improve seo and harvest more traffic that will want to visit your site to get more information - especially if you use videos from other platforms (like Vimeo, DM etc.) and inform Youtube visitors that you have much more informational videos not found on Youtube by going to your site (sense of urgency and targeted "action-taking" traffic).
