Client does not want preview videos at the end of his Youtube Video -- is there a solution?

7 replies
I have a client that I ranked a youtube video for. He embedded the youtube link on his website and says that he would like to not have the grid of previews for other youtube videos show up at the end of his video. (That's all under Youtube's control, correct?)

He asked if there is a way around this.

What HE could do, is have his webdesigner (not my strength at all) see if there is a compatible video plug-in or player for his website that will play only an uploaded video and stop at the end with no previews or connections to Youtube, correct?

He could also PAY for a business account at Vimeo and embed the video from there (I think that you have control over what shows up at the nd of your video).


On my end, what I could do, is create another video, but extend the call to action at the end for maybe a 30 seconds, right? That would delay the previews, but they would still appear.


I'm kinda new at this, so am not really sure if these are legitimate "solutions"... any suggestions would be awesome!

    There's an option to disable that in the options settings for the video.

      Where's that? Just checked and didn't see that option anywhere. I think the extended call to action at the end of the video would be all that's necessary.
      Long as not just a black frame, youtube should let it play the duration without auto-editing.

    It's one of the check boxes when you go to grab the embed code.
    Just un-check it. It is checked by default.

      Yip, thats the simple way. Or you can add ?rel=0 after the video url in the embed code

    This will help you create whatever parameters you like for your embedded youtube videos:

    At the end of the video ID number you can add a few variables.

    For example:
    iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/mBHnUU0aRDM?rel=0&controls=0&showinfo=0&modestbran ding=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe

    I stripped out part of the html tages that go before and at the end of iframe.

    The following will show no player controls, show no info, not show related videos <-- which answers your question.

    You can also add &autoplay=1 to automatically play the video when the page loads.
