Looking to learn more about personal branding, but prefer the video learning format over articles and ebooks? The video tutorial experts at Lynda.com may have what you're looking for with a new personal branding video course that launched this month.

The Personal Branding Basics course is hosted by Lorrie Thomas Ross, a web marketing expert, author and speaker from California, and goes into three main areas of personal branding advice:

• Understanding personal branding - Learn about the keys to a personal brand and how to determine personal branding objectives
• Establishing your brand - Learn how to develop your voice of authority, your online style and your online identity.
• Growing your brand - Learn how to define your niche, connect within your community, and then create content.

Of course, my best tips for establishing and growing your brand would be to claim a domain and start to build out your personal brand on your own easy-to-manage website. So many people try to skate by on a Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn profile alone, but the reality is that nothing beats having your own domain. 

Check out the personal branding video courses on Lynda.com and then go build yourself a website.
