Why vlogging will become increasingly popular
Author: VloggingPro
In recent years the amount of vloggers on youtube has grown exponentially and shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon. But why is vlogging becoming so popular? Why are so many people picking up a camera to film their own daily lives? And why are people watching these vlogs while they are (usually) much lower quality then other videos that can be found online. The answers to these questions can be explained with 4 simple reasons.
Experience anyones life
In the days before the internet you lived your own life and could only read or hear about other peoples lives. When social media become popular we had ways of keeping up with other peoples’ lives much easier. But we could only see the highlights of other peoples lives. The moments they decided were worth sharing with other people. Vlogging is one of the closest ways to experience someone else's life. From the comfort of your home you can see what life is like in another country, in another family, in another culture and doing completely different things. This is the first time ever we can so easily immerse ourselves in someone else’s life.
Fun to look back on
Another reason why so many people start vlogging is because it let’s you capture experiences you would have never saved before. Most of our lives consists of repetitive tasks which we quickly forget. When you capture such a big part of your life you can always watch it back later and only then you realize how much (or little) has changed. Maybe you were living somewhere else or maybe the people who were important in your life a year ago have now faded from your life and you met new people.
Great to meet new people
While on the topic of meeting new people. Vlogging is a great way to meet new people since you share your life and your personality with so many different people. It’s a great way to find other people with similar interests, collaborate with other youtubers, share cool memories and since you are sharing your videos with the world, maybe you will make some friends who live on the other side of the world! How cool is that?!
True reality TV
It’s no secret people love reality TV. TV producers have used it’s popularity to create more and more new reality TV shows. However to keep them entertaining a lot of these are scripted which takes away from being true reality TV. Since vloggers don’t have to deal with the pressure of generating the most amount of views to sell advertisements this happens a lot less with vlogging. Vloggers share their entire day without just cutting out the highlights.
