I confess but sometimes I really run out of fresh ideas for blogposts and this is really a great idea. Why didn’t I thought of this before! Thanks for the advice and for the video too.

Hi Ana, I came here from Basic Blog Tips and my Mom recommended this post. I can see why, it’s a pretty smart idea. I don’t have Power Point but maybe I can use Google docs. I’ll let you know how I make out.

Good post. I checked out trafficgeyser and it seems like they charge $97 pr month for their services ($1 for the first 21 days). This is indeed a good technique but it could be interesting to hear if someone know any free, or cheaper services.

Yes, Tube Mogul is free. However, as I mentioned before, they shut me down within a month.

Give it a shot though; you never know. :)

Otherwise, doing it by hand always works - that’s how we all start.

Hope this helps!

Hi again! True, Tubemogul has a free option for video syndication, but only if your content is non-commercial…: ” Free for users distributing media, new media, UGC and other non-commercial content”.

Anyway, manual labour should strengthen your character:-)

That’s why I don’t use it, Rick. Even when I posted purely educational video, they weren’t happy with me. :)

That’s how I started using Traffic Geyser to begin with. The benefits I got from it far outweighed the price.

Hey Ana

I am looking forward to the rest of your tips from that $2k course.

Considering how well you are doing it was worth every penny.

I never looked at it as recycling, I looked at it as content being delivered in various formats, each with its own audience.

I tend to get comfortable with one format at the expense of others, but didn’t I write a post awhile ago about being uncomfortable :)

Hey Ana, yet another great post! I’m definitely interested in using video and there are so many ways to do it without actually getting in front of the camera yourself, particularly if you’re trying to demonstrate a technique or strategy.

Now to put this technique into motion :-)

Hey Ana:

This is a great way to create videos, especially for those that are not ready to talk live in front of a camera. This allows people the opportunity to get used to speaking while recording the video before they actually step in front of the camera.

I really appreciate you sharing this information. I especially like how easy it is to create a podcast.

Have fun!

Let me know how you conquer your Word Doc problems - I know each version of the program has different ways to save files.

Of course, another way to try is to save the file in a text editor, like NotePad or TextEdit (on Macs), or any other text editor you might have.
