Video upload help needed

Dear All,

I would like to add some videos to my Thank you page so that customers can download them.

I was wondering if anyone could recommend the best way to serve them on on the website without eating my bandwidth. Also, don't know if Justhost will allow videos or if I have to try another approach.

Are there recommended services who handle video? I know I can use Youtube, but I am concerned that this looks unprofessional.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Tuscan

    Create a free Vimeo account and host them there. Just grab the embed code and hey presto they will play on your site.

    If you zip the video files, customers can download them as data files. That shouldn't use up as much bandwidth as streaming the videos.

    Why not load it up to youtube and embed link onto your site. It saves your bandwidth and can add traffic from youtube as well.

    You are talking about two [2] different methods of offering videos. Before anything else - you should decide which way you want to go:
    1. offering the videos in a zipped, downloadable file and they watch them on their own computer
    OR
    2. as streaming videos = i.e. visitors watch them on your site

    The solution would depend on which way you want to go...
