For about the last two months, I've been writing a video blogging columns for the popular blogging zine BloggingTips.com. Well here's a clips from one of my fellow columnists, Michael Martine.

Michael recently posted this video called Start Video Blogging for $40 and Less than 2 Hours on his own blog. What's interesting about the clip is that rather than discussing video blogging itself, it focuses on the business development benefits of having a blog in general. I guess, then, that the impetus of the post was to demonstrate the simplicity of actually diving into the realm video blogging.

Now, in terms of traffic generation, there are SEO benefits of blogging that can be reaped by webmasters regardless of what the niche or focus of their site is. In other words, a blog can be installed on a subdomain of your site, and help drive organic traffic to it without being the main focus of the site. When it comes to the 4 ways to SEO for universal search, however, while one of the steps is to get blogging, another of the steps is to make videos. It makes perfect sense, then, that (1) Michael churned out this clip about the business benefits blogging, and (2) you should follow his lead and produce some video blog posts of your own.
