The presence of videos allows you to earn more quality backlinks related to your site content, which drastically improves your SEO rankings.
The key is to create engaging videos that your audience finds relatable and valuable. You may find several healthcare blogs wanting to write a feature about your content, which is an excellent opportunity for you to reach the masses as well as earn link equity from the backlink.
