YouTube is the 2nd largest search engine in the world (behind its parent company Google), which means it's also one of the absolute best content discovery networks at your disposal for promoting your blog and growing your audience. From the day you embark on starting a blog, you'll want to think about a strategy for publishing videos on YouTube with the goal of getting subscribers and driving viewers back to your blog. Check out my guide on how to start a video blog & comparison of blogging vs YouTube for more. And be sure to use my free YouTube keyword research tool to get clear insights on topics you're considering creating videos about.

With relatively little effort (and only a couple dozen videos over the past few years), I've already used YouTube to get hundreds of thousands of views on my video tutorials—and reach a new audience of people seeking to learn how to start a blog. Many of those viewers also click through to learn more about the subject I cover in my video content, thus bringing them over to my blog where I can further educate and encourage them to become subscribers (or customers).
