VIDEOS IN BLOGS
let me tell you some thing really really crazy , posting a video is what you think for sure!!!EVERYBODY would have thought that uploading a video will be like downloading a video and then uploading it, forget the time wasted , its the data, if you are just bloging for fun or very much sure that the blog wont fetch you money, this game will be surely idiotic.
time for some math
see like i pay 1,800 INR (30$) for 12 GB here in india
and lets us assume that the video is 25 MB(a short SD video) but as we should download and upload it would be 50 MB ,so for a low end hobby blogger getting 10 views per page is a big issue or to the maximum if your content in real good(considering that you blog rarely) you may get 25 views.
so 30$ per 12 GB
..., 30$ per 12288 MB
..., 1$ per 409.6 MB
..., 0.125$ per 50 MB.
i would like to point that internet tariff in India is one of the least in the world and that as i have a 12 GB my cost per MB is very less but if you are using dongle or broadband with low data program , your cost per video will be very high.
And as a person who is blogging for a long time , i bet that getting 0.125 $ from a post if you are writing like me is real hard .
More over only very small and SD are available for 25 MB ,that you can hardly make any sense with that video or even aiding your content.
But there is a new stuff that Google have done for the betterment of fool bloggers like us
just do as follows
and in the dialogue box , you can either see search for video as you normally do in YouTube or you can cut paste the URL of the YouTube video (and also to sample , you can actually see them in it,in either cases)
let me admit this , when i just got this ,it was a BIG largess for me ,isn't that the same for you?
so why should we do this,because it is always cool when someone get to read you ,ok ok its the money .As i have blogged earlier ,Google ranks you up when you have media in it, so thus far i was attaching photos but from now videos .But basically what is the problem , when you have seen a YouTube video and writing something relevant just put it in.
i will soon do a similar case study on the usage of clip-arts in today's blogs and as always a case study on traffic increase on posts with videos and when not to attach videos .
see you all soon then !
