Most companies and websites use all sorts of videos across their platforms, from ads to messages to updates. However, using a lot of videos can quickly slow down your network or give your viewers a poor experience if not optimized properly.
What Is Video Hosting?
Video hosting is a method that allows you to store your files on a remote server to access later. Hosting allows you to make your files available to others on the Internet, which anyone can access using a web browser or other applications. It makes accessing your videos easier for your customers and team while saving on infrastructure costs. Some video hosts can bring additional features, such as Cloudinary’s Video Transformations, through their Media Experience Cloud.
It can be done in two ways: one is by uploading the video file to a website where it will be stored, and the other way is by embedding the video into your site or blog by using HTML code.
The most common type of video hosting is a website where you can upload and share video files with others over the Internet, like YouTube and Vimeo. This allows visitors to watch them on their computers without downloading anything first.
