Great vid Glenn! Have to agree with Clare - building topic-specific clusters of original content on your website will not only help your rankings, but also drive visitors directly to the pages within your site that are specific to what they were searching for - reducing bounce rates, and increasing conversions. Good stuff, keep 'em coming. =)

Thanks Glen, that was interesting. As constructive criticism I'd recommend video posts to be no longer than 2 minutes though; snappier, capture your audience. The attention span of the viewer is under the same attack as the attention span of the reader in modern times.
