Repurpose top 3 videos into blog posts

3-5 hr per video Impact: high Effort: high

Repurposing your top 3 videos into blog posts extends their real value onto your owned site, capturing search traffic from people who prefer reading over watching.

This multiplies the real value of content you have already created, reaching an audience segment video alone does not fully capture.

The full picture

Repurposing your top three videos into blog posts extends the value of content you've already created, capturing search traffic from readers who prefer text over video while simultaneously strengthening your owned website's content depth using material whose value has already been demonstrated through real video performance.

The genuine selection of which three videos warrant this repurposing effort should reflect real, demonstrated performance data — your genuinely top-performing videos represent proven audience interest, making them stronger candidates for this additional investment than videos with unproven or weaker performance.

Genuine adaptation for the written format, rather than a raw transcript dump, matters substantially for this repurposed content's actual quality and performance — real restructuring specifically for reading, including appropriate headings and prose adjustments distinct from spoken-word patterns, produces meaningfully better written content than an unedited transcript.

Embedding the original video within this repurposed blog post creates genuine cross-promotion between your YouTube and website properties — this bidirectional connection extends value in both directions, driving blog readers toward your video content while capturing search traffic from readers who initially discover this content through text search rather than video search.

How to do it

    Choose your genuinely top 3 performing videos
    Real data on what has resonated, not arbitrary selection.
  2. 2
    Adapt genuinely for the written format
    Real restructuring for reading, not just a transcript dump.
  3. 3
    Embed the original video within the post
    Genuine cross-promotion between the two formats.
