I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, video is where it’s at. Even so, as a blogger and content marketer, I still do not use video near enough. One reason is that video creation can be time consuming and expensive. However there are easier and cheaper, even free alternatives.
In a previous post, I talked about finding free content for your YouTube videos: Free Content for Your YouTube Videos.

I just learned about this one today via Tracey Meagher, creator of Vydeo Sensation. H5P.org allows you to add interactive elements to your videos such as tables, fill-in-the-blanks, and multiple choice questions.
