In this short audio I’ll be discussing the growing popularity of video content on the web and how it might impact your article writing career.

I’ll discuss the answer to three questions:

1.  Is written content taking a back-seat to online videos?

2. Will written content play a smaller role in the future of the Internet?

3.  What does the increase in online video mean to article writers?

Video will never take over as dominant over text articles. It is just impossible. I see video as a growing medium online. I have even come across wordpress plugins that allow video comments, but the fact remains that people love to read. People also love to write.

Thanks Brandon, great points. For me video is just another medium for expressing yourself. And it totally compliments text. But will never replace it. Thanks for commenting

Hey Mike,

Actually a very good article and great questions. There’s absolutely no doubt that Video is playing a major role in entertainment, sales and marketing now. I certainly don’t see that changing or going backwards.

Will it replace article writing? No, definitely not in the near future but it will certainly add to it and become a more common method especially for marketers and anyone with an online presence. It’s just another great way for people to digest information.

Great stuff ;)
