Blogging + YouTube | What Should I Do?

October 7, 2014 by Whitney 12 Comments

I’ve been back and forth with my decision to head (back) to YouTube. I mean I was never really a huge YouTuber, but I did have a few thrifting videos here and there. Lately, I’ve been really feeling inspired to get back to it. Acting on it, well, that’s another thing.

I mentioned in this post that my YouTube days would return in late summer. As you can see that didn’t happen, lol. Yes, I’m still dragging my feet. But I have a good reason, lol. I’m thinking about making my channel a true extension of my blog. What would that entail? Without going into all the details, below are a few ideas I’ve been tossing around. 


 1. Making “Inspirational Tuesday’s” a weekly or bi-weekly YouTube segment

2. Introducing Style Bloggers and Entrepreneurs via-YouTube

3. Doing (my own) product reviews & monthly favorites 

4. Exploring and filming my experiencing at shops, restaurants, etc. (local & non-local)

YouTube

As I continue to blog, I don’t want to get stale. I think trying different approaches and new things is always a good idea. I also think listening to what your readers want is another important factor. That said, you know I have a question (or 2) coming! 😉


 What do you think about YouTube in general? Did any of my ideas stick out to you? Do you have any suggestion of what you’d like to see me cover on YouTube? Let me know! 

Don’t be shy. Comment below and let me know what you think. You can also contact me here with any ideas, suggestions and thoughts. Your feedback is appreciated and I truly appreciate how much love and support you all show me. It’s a blessing. Hope to hear form you all soon. Until then, be blessed and stay safe…XO!

    Yes, come back to YouTube! I am currently both a blogger and vlogger. I am terribly inconsistent with my channel but I find that my true supporters are there when I post regardless.

      Lol, thanks for the nudge Kara! Consistency is one of my fears too. We shall see! 😉

    I’m on the fence about it. I feel like many of the other social media forms, it too is becoming to congested. Unless you really have a clever approach, I say skip it.

      See, this is my dilemma Glenda. YT is very saturated, therefore I have to have a very clever approach, indeed. Something to think (more) about. Thanks for your input! 🙂

    It’s always a good idea to mix it up, so if you have a passion for YouTubing then go for it, especially as an extension of your blog.

      Of COURSE we’d collab if I made my way back. That’d be a fabulous idea, sis!
