Michael – Regarding Pierre’s comments – I also recently heard about services that transcribe videos for a relatively small fee for those concerned. I’m with you – audio and all is around the corner I believe – just look at the free service http://www.jott.com – I find it amazing how you can talk and it transcribes darn near perfectly.

@Pierre: It’s easy to add the needed text to a video post to help search engines for now, but Google is developing the technology to intelligently understand text in video. Audio won’t be far behind. So I don’t see video as an SEO problem at all, anymore.

Content is king, right. When you video blog your posts donÂ´t have to much text content for search engines to index.

Do you think that new blogs should stick to old fashion text post rather then video blogs just make sure that you get the search engine visitors?

The way Im thinking itÂ´s that more posts and content the more indexed pages and hopefully more visitors you get. But in your case you have so high page rank and posts indexed so it doesnÂ´t matter.

The video was great.

Michael – Glad you made it handy for people.

I bet there are lots of people would like coaching on starting videos and I don’t haven’t seen many good resources (hint hint)- maybe it will be an offering from the Remarkablogger in 2008! A girl can wish can’t she!! – Cyndee
