Try Brightcove, a privately-held company founded in 2004 that specializes in video. It has plenty of options for hosting videos, including analytics and creation tools. If you&#8217;re just starting out with video, Brightcove is probably not for you, but it may be worth checking out.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Vimeo\"><\/span>Vimeo<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re tired of the ubiquitous YouTube, Vimeo has a few good features for video enthusiasts. It allows you to upload unlimited amounts of content, set a password, and direct viewers to related videos. The platform also integrates social media for marketing purposes, and allows users to subscribe to your channel. However, its main drawback is its limited file size, which has become absurdly large in recent years. Here are four reasons why Vimeo is better than YouTube for video marketing:<\/p>\n<p>Vimeo is one of the most popular alternatives to YouTube. This service offers a safe interface for uploading and managing your videos. It also offers many advanced features like password-protecting your videos, bulk-changing embed settings, domain and geo-restrictions, ad-free streaming, and balanced privacy and security settings. The site caters to a variety of different audiences, including businesses, professional video producers, and individuals.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Dailymotion\"><\/span>Dailymotion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you want to monetize your YouTube videos, there are a few other options for you. One of these is Dailymotion. This site is similar to YouTube, but has a more lax copyright policy. It has 112 million monthly visitors, and offers options for monetizing your videos through ads, a paywall, or both. However, there are also limitations on what you can post, including the size of the video.<\/p>\n<p>Another good alternative is Facebook. It&#8217;s easy to post videos on Facebook and can even be monetized. Businesses that have a strong Facebook presence can create live videos and share them with followers, but you may not have as much success. Facebook&#8217;s business model requires you to have a certain amount of followers, 600,000 video views, and 60,000 hours of live streaming. You can also share a link to your video through your Facebook page.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"VEED\"><\/span>VEED<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for a better video hosting solution than YouTube, consider Vimeo. It lets you embed videos into your website and provides 150GB of storage. If you&#8217;re planning to use your videos to advertise your business or website, Vzaar offers a fully-customizable player, ad networks, and email capture forms. The company also offers analytics and a video performance index, or VPI. Videos with higher VPIs are more likely to be viewed.<\/p>\n<p>Vimeo is another great choice. Based in the United States, Vimeo is an extremely popular video hosting service and a great place to get your videos noticed. It has a high ranking in search engines and many users. Vimeo puts a focus on quality and has an app for iOS and Android devices. You can now sign up for your Vimeo account anywhere, from your smartphone or tablet. However, you should remember that Vimeo is only a platform for video creators, not for webmasters.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"SproutVideo\"><\/span>SproutVideo<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>SproutVideo is a simple, web-based video hosting platform that allows you to create a simple website around your video content. You can choose from one of six themes, enter your site name, logo, and other information, and then customize the colors and other features. The Pro plan includes ten free videos and no Wistia branding. It&#8217;s easy to customize your video player and add social sharing buttons to your site.<\/p>\n<p>SproutVideo also has a free plan, but if you need more storage space and more advanced analytics, you will have to upgrade to one of their paid plans. You can also sign up for a free trial, which gives you 30 days to decide if this is a good option for you. You can also choose a plan that meets your budget and needs. If you don&#8217;t want to pay anything up front, SproutVideo is the way to go.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Wistia\"><\/span>Wistia<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Many video hosting services charge a monthly subscription fee, but Wistia has no such requirement. The free plan allows you to upload up to three videos, but you&#8217;ll have a 200GB bandwidth limit and a storage limit of 25 videos. Once you reach your limit, your videos will be inaccessible. To avoid such a problem, you can opt for a paid plan. The cheapest paid plan starts at $25 per month for ten videos and unlimited bandwidth. For those who want to go beyond a free plan, there are Wistia&#8217;s enterprise plans, which cost $300 for a terabyte of bandwidth. Wistia also offers discounted overage rates, advanced analytics, and in-video calls to action.<\/p>\n<p>There are also plenty of free video hosting services available. Most of these platforms are available as standalone applications, but you can also choose to integrate with third-party applications. SproutVideo, for example, allows businesses to build a basic website around their video content. This service also lets you create multiple playlists of videos, and allows you to add an unlimited number of links to them. Wistia is compatible with popular CMSs, including WordPress, Drupal, and Drupal.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe height=\"230\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"411\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/d_F2qdjxm-I\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Where Can I Host My Videos Besides YouTube?
