Blog Class - How to Best Use Video Tutorials

Hola

I conducted a private tutoring session with Laurel of www.ConsciousMamas.com (previously http://wordpress.consciousmama.com ) today. I will make a separate post to include you all in the great progress that was made.

I hope Laurel learned something in working with me, and I thank her for her time as well because I learned something about some of you…in working with the videos.

She expressed feeling a mite intimidated about watching and working with the videos. She also did not know what to expect. So let me just clue all of you in that may be afraid to even open the videos and see what they are all about.

What the videos are not:

Zhenya sitting at her computer showing you stuff while you look at a blurry, tiny computer screen and the back of her head or face.

What the videos are:

Screen capture of my desktop as I move my mouse around and verbally instruct you on where you should click, what web sites you need to go to, how you navigate from here to there to accomplish what we set out to do: build a blog that expresses your passion and makes you money.

How to watch and learn from the videos:

  1. Watch the video once.
  2. Watch the video a second time. This time, once you’ve gotten a couple instructions PAUSE the video, open another internet browser (Internet explorer, Safari, firefox mozilla) and do what I show you to do in the video. Then, once you’ve completed a step, go back to the window showing the video, UN-PAUSE it and watch the next step. Repeat. Watch a step. Pause the video. Do the step yourself. Go back to watching the video.

I hope this helps you.

I’d love to hear your comments on the videos - but be kind (constructive criticism please) “’cause I’m an artist and I’m sensitive about my sh*t” as Erika Badu once said.

Once your blogs are up and running please come back to this post and submit a comment with your new URL so we can all see it and read about it. The next class is MUI IMPORTANTE and so if you have trouble getting all the way caught up, please call me or email me and I will set up a live class on the internet to help everyone get through this. Or you may hire me individually as Laurel did!

I expect to see EVERYONE - 100% participation in this. You can do it, know that because I do. And if you are feeling lost, overwhelmed, frustrated or too busy just let me know and I will do what it takes to get you up and running, okay?

Til the next time, Cheers!
