For Those of You Wondering if People Would Rather Read or Watch a Video...
Well, I just stumbled on something a minute ago and thought I'd share it with you.
As Internet marketers, we can sometimes have a biased towards somethine because we see it so often. Sometimes it's good to get your visitors reaction and see what they think.
Check out this from Yahoo:
Pizza Craving Leads To $1M Powerball Prize - Yahoo! News
It's a video not an article.
Now read the comments below the video.
Now, I'm sure the ad in the beginning of the video has something to do with all the negative comments towards video, but I think this also shows that people would be more willing to read than to watch a video.
If you read the comments carefully, many are specifically angry towards the fact that it's a video, not so much the ad.
I think the most you should get from this at least give your visitors the option for both. Have a video at the top with the text at the bottom.
Just thought I'd share.
