Fran, I use to get distracted with all these kind of things in the beginning days of my business.
But later on I learnt that, it is more important to take action.Yes, as you said: everyone has videos these days. Including myself: Technotip Channel
But who has the time ?
Our target audience does. We need to write on topics which are pressing needs of our target audience.
Ex: If someone is diagnosed with some illness wouldn’t they immediately rush and take the prescription, instead of going from shop to shop to see where they get it for a dollar less!Get Into Their Shoe
Find your target audience, get to know their pressing needs: Solve them. And you would create a win-win situation.Here the keyword targeting or Market Samurai comes into picture.
Instead of doing all these hyped up things, we can use some free tools and get better results.
1. list all your keywords, which you want to rank for. (for each of your websites)
2. To analyze the competition and the strength of the keyword, simple goto this free Google Adword tool.
Fill the necessary things like: the Word or phrase related to the niche of your blog, which you want to rank for.
Now hit “search” and Google Adword tool will show you the monthly search for those keywords.
This way you could determine the competition.3. If its highly competitive keyword, then its hard to rank for it. In such case look for sub-niches, where you could rank for those keywords easily. Later on you could target the keywords with higher competition.
4. Just use the keywords you listed, in your blog posts, title of your articles; use them while linking to your old articles etc.
These are some of the basic stuffs you should be doing.
Above and Beyond SEO: critical factor
Do not get overwhelmed by all these things because, above all, your readers and their engagement with your website and their willingness to share your articles with their friends is very important. For long term Google will manage to rank you high, if the level of engagement is higher on your blog. So concentrate more on providing value to your readers: and this is the ultimatum!NOTE

Sarah, I guess you are hosting your blogs at DreamHost. I would recommend going with HostGator.
Anyway, let me know, if you need any help with the migration process. We do it a lot! and have got good feed back too ;-)If you want to do it yourself, that would be great. I’ll always be happy to help you in the forum here.
One more suggestion
I visited both of your blogs.
One of your blog is hosted at WordPress.com !
I don’t understand why you host blog at WordPress.com when you already have a hosting account?
You can host the “grownupmom” blog also with your present host of wellnessthenaturalway.com and I don’t think you’ll need to pay again for this.Most of the time, its like: Pay for one a/c and host as many domains you want. You won’t be paying a single extra cent for that.
just my 2 cents.
You can manually get the code for these buttons at http://www.google.com/intl/en/webmasters/+1/button/index.html
I would recommend going with JetPack plugin from WordPress itself, for showing SHARE icons. Its easy to configure it and it shows all icons in a row.
Further, the plugin has a lot of other useful features like stats etc.
I would say this plugin as a must for any WordPress.org user.
After installing this, you could remove the plugin which you’re using to show G+ (+1) button at the top of every article.
Firstly, was very pleased to look at lord Ganesha on your blog as the first post(My Meditation Experiment: article).
Follow Me Button:
It is possible to include a simple image(size as the other icons) of Google+ and link it to your G+ profile or Fan page.The code to link a image and make the link open in new window:
Change the href link to your profile link
You can right click and save below image; upload it to your server via WordPress/FTP and link it using above html code.
Working Ex:
Do you want Networkblogs app to publish your recent post on your fan page or your profile page?
Have a look at our Technotip Fan page; recent articles are posted automatically by networkblogs app.
There is no question of slowing down of site because of this; as networkblog app will be considered as a subscriber to your blog and it only fetches recent articles via your blog feed.
Let me know the exact problem you’re facing.
Sir, edit the post and use these syntax to format it to look better.
don’t forget about the < and > replacement strings of html while writing the code.
Its very simple to install WordPress plugins. You can hardly get wrong with this, if you follow these steps.

Step 2: Click on “Add New” or “Installed Plugins”.
Step 3: If you clicked “Installed Plugins”; now click on “Add New” button at the top.

Step 5: In your case, you have downloaded wp-smushit! plugin on to your computer. So click on the ‘upload’ link at the top.
Step 6: Now browse, select the plugin and install it.
