VLOG
To Do:
Introduction
The word vlog is short for “video log” or “video
blogging” which gives a hint as to what came
before the vlog: blogging. A vlog is short for video
log and is a journalistic style of video that
captures the life of an individual while typically
being narrated and recorded by the same
individual. Vlogs have existed since the first video
was uploaded to a blog in January 2000 by Adam
Kontra.
Adam Kontras was the first to
accomplish this on January 2nd, 2000
when he posted a 15-second video of
himself sneaking a cat into his
apartment building. He had been
documenting his personal journey
for friends and family to Los Angeles
to make it in show business. Since
then, Kontras has continued

VLOGGING
They provide a platform for
personal journey
documentation, self-
reflection, education, and
entertainment. Video blogs
offer a remarkable and
legitimate way for content
makers to draw in watchers,
fabricate networks, and lay
out their online presence.
Purpose of
Vlogging
Vlogs provide creators
with a platform for self-
expression, storytelling,
and audience
connection, which goes
beyond entertainment.
BENEFITS OF
VLOGGING
Culture
Vlogging makes the culture familiar.
Through vlogs, people can understand
the culture of different countries. This
helps in understanding other people
and their ethics.
Education
Students can find videos that align
with their preferred way of learning,
making it easier to understand and
retain information.
Everyone loves a bit of
entertainment. Vlogging
allows people to be
entertained or relaxed
within 5–6 minutes.
YouTube vloggers come
across as relatable folks,
just like us. We enjoy
peeking into their lives,
curious about their
routines. We feel a bond
as if they're our peers.
Vlogging helps in
informing the masses.
There are a lot of
vloggers who make
informative videos.
People now use search
engines to search for
informative videos.
Vloggers use videos to
spread awareness about
different causes, some
examples are bullying,
LGBT+ community, etc.
Health
All of these channels help
in understanding people
with different needs and
their requirements. There
are a lot of myths about
some diseases in society
either from the past or
from less interaction with
people who suffer from
them. But vlogging is
helping differently-abled
people and people with
diseases. People now
recognize the symptoms
and provide the response
as the need be.
Entertainme
nt Information
One of the benefits the
vloggers have is that
once they start building
an audience, they
formulate a community
of like-minded people.
Those people who have
an interest in similar
topics and likes similar
things come together
and support the
vlogger. This
community of like-
minded people creates
an amazing
atmosphere.
Vlogging helps
connect with people
from all over the
world. The videos
created by the creator
reach the audience all
over the world and
that’s how it helps
people connect with
each other. It also
helps in gaining
exposure and makes
the creators stand out
in the community.
It Makes
Everything
More Human
vlogging has made it
easier for the creators
or entrepreneurs to
share their journey
with the audience.
With this, they not only
connect with the
audience but it also
makes the whole
journey more real for
the audience.
A Community
of Like-Minded
People
Connecting with
People
One more benefit of
vlogging is that it creates
revenue for the creator.
Revenue is also one of the
reasons that vlogging has
become a job for a lot of
people. Revenue comes in
different forms, through
affiliate marketing, through
sponsorships, and through
advertisements.
Making a
Difference
Vlogging also allows
people to make a
difference. People share
their opinions on a lot of
different things, and as a
result of that, they make
a difference in the world.
It also helps people in
sharing the
discrimination that
happened to them or
someone else which in
turn helps them get
justice.
