There are some vloggers that only use YouTube. They customize a page, post their videos, and respond to watchers all through You Tube. You can interact like that through any video hosting site – friend people, leave comments, subscribe, etc.
That’s okay, but I think you should have your own blog for your own videos.
Use your videos to point people to your website. Put your url in every profile you write. If you edit put your site name or url on the video. If you don’t edit you can say your site name in the video or put it on a sign behind you.
You are building your own community and a marketing funnel by pointing people to your own site.
An easy way to spread your great videos [and therefore your site name] to several sites is through Tube Mogul [not an affiliate]. You have to already have accounts set up at the different hosting sites before you register with Tube Mogul. From my experience it takes a bit of time to get it set up, but once it’s set up it’s easy. Basically, you upload your video to Tube Mogul and they spread it to the sites you select. One upload spreads to several sites – can’t beat that.
Did any of you start with vlogs before you had a blog? I’m assuming that most of you had a blog first. Leave me a comment and let me know!

Hi, I am the Marketing Director at HeySpread.
Thanks for this good article.
That is true, Tubemogul is a great service.
But you should also have a look at HeySpread for Professional Video Analytics and Video Distribution – http://bit.ly/4Kxy9. Far cheaper, with exclusive features such as YouClone (copy/paste your YouTube videos to any other platform automatically and in one shot), powerful and user-friendly interface, REST API for an easy and fast white label integration.
