-Evita Godinho

If you’re a vlogger, the biggest obstacle you’re likely to face is to come up with content that attracts interest from your viewers. Here are 12 content concepts that you should start doing now to help you do that.

1) Do an FAQ video.

This will help you bring new and current subscribers on board because they want to hear more about you. So, make a list of the questions that your followers have always asked, and place them in one video! Plus, this could be perennial material that you will post over and over again.

2) Feature one of your subscribers.

Show how much you appreciate your audience with one of them! Choose someone who lives in your neighbourhood so that you can quickly get to their location and vlog on what their day is like. Think about this as an appreciation message for the most dedicated subscribers.

3) Try something for the first time.

Whether it’s cooking, make-up, sport, or some experience, do something you haven’t done before. This will show a lot of unscripted and candid responses that the audience will enjoy. Note that honesty is one of the hallmarks of a great blogger.

4) Show what’s in your bag or closet.

Invite your audiences to take a look through your purse or wardrobe. It’s always nice to share your must-haves because they usually show you what you want and what you admire most without getting too seriously. You’ll be shocked how many followers you’re going to engage in, particularly those who have the same stuff or style as yours!

5) Do an interview.

That person may be a family member, an acquaintance, an influencer, or just some average Joe you met in a shop. Featuring other people, you’ll bring diversity to your stuff. Make sure you highlight what makes the person special so that he or she has a connection to your audience.

6) Make a tutorial.

It will demonstrate your integrity, your weakness, and your power. Doing a vlog like this can be very empowering, not only for you, but also for your fans.

8) Take on a trending challenge.

There will always be a challenge on social media. Choose the one that gets you the most happy and do it! Prepare yourself to be humiliated! Just bear in mind that this is something you’re doing for fun. Just make it spontaneous. And if you ever wish to edit it, share the outcomes of the video!

9) Do a “cheap” day.

That means you’re doing something with a small budget. For eg, buy a present for your partner for just $5 or eat all day with just $10 in your pocket. It’s going to be hard, but it’s going to be worth the adventure! Your fans are likely to love seeing you stretch your budget.

10) Attend an event and make a review.

Take the audience to a special event and do an analysis right after that; of the into the arrangements and some sort of VIP access (if you have one); have an unbiased look at the case and share your insight with your subscribers, including some do’s and don’ts. More specifically, make a decision whether they’re supposed to go or not.

11) Compare something old and new.

It may be a device, an appliance, a location, a pack — anything that has distinct changes. Highlight the good and the bad of any thing. You can also make a vlogging sequence and categorise it! You should also invite people who can share their experience with the older ones to let them test the new ones!

12) Make gift suggestions.

From birthdays to anniversaries, graduation, Mother’s/ Father’s Day and holidays, vlogging of gift ideas to help your subscribers find the right gift. There would be perennial material that you can share on an annual basis. It’s also a successful way to tie-up with some labels.
