videoblogger

Camera-facing content creator

A videoblogger is someone who creates video content for an online audience, typically posting regularly to platforms like YouTube.

The term blends video with blogger, emphasizing the diary-like or commentary format over polished production: She started as a videoblogger reviewing makeup before launching her own cosmetics line.

Often shortened to vlogger.
