Comment on WordPress Theme Development by SEO Dave.
I run a couple of recipe sites and they do quite well traffic wise. I’m lazy and not added photos or videos :-)
Depending on how you organize it, it will probably look a bit like one of my wife’s sites Happy People Good Karma Blog assuming you use YouTube to host the videos.
For sites where we add YouTube videos we use the Smart YouTube Plugin by Vladimir Prelovac , makes it easier to add the videos and allows you to add some formatting without messing around with the YouTube embed code.
