Doing a series is a great vlogging [and blogging] technique.D It helps keep your audience’s interest and gives you something to post about.
Another benefit of a series is that you – as the author of the series – improve through the series. Even though it’s a subject you already know about and enjoy [I hope it's a topic you enjoy!] you will be researching and talking a lot about it as the series goes on.
Maybe this is easier to see in the vlogging world. At first the speaker looks like a deer in the headlights, but soon they are chatting to the camera like it’s their best friend. You can see them experimenting with backgrounds and lighting, angles and editing. Sooner or later they will settle into a style that they like and that works well for them.
I know this is true for me. When I decided to pass on simple vlogging tips to members at NewBaby I didn’t even realize I was starting on the path to having this site and speaking in real life! I loved doing those tip videos and learning a bit more each time. If you want to see how scared I was in the beginning you can sign up for my newsletter from the home page of my site. The 10 free tips are the first 10 tip videos I made. From number 1 to number 10 there is a big difference in my comfort level – and my technique.
So if you’re thinking of starting a series – go for it! You and your vlogging/blogging will be better for it.

Absolutely agree!! I’m using vlogs to introduce each of the major points of a five-week study of Esther on my blog. I have had incredible responses to the vlogs and even had a few people ask for more! It’s exciting.
