How To Ensure Video Loads Fast On A Salespage

11 years ago

Good question but not a lot of information to go with for the question. I guess I would start by asking what format is the video in? Also, what is your hosting set up?

I have been happy with the load time with Amazon s3 for video content.

Where are you hosting the videos?

Thanks

I followed the instructions from Easy Video Player to make the video mobile optimized. It is in mp4 format. The site is hosted by Hostgator.

Would a faster hosting like a WP engine help? Can I do anything with the video that can help it load faster?

Please advice.

Thanks

It depends on the size of the video. mp4's take a bit longer to load than .flv files, so you'll need to have your mp4 compressed to the max. You need the video to be compressed down to the 25MB - 40MB range. Especially if you're using amazon s3 to store the file.

Alternatively, you can use a company like wistia which is amazing and gets you blazing fast loading times on any device.

I think the file size may partly be the problem. The video file size is about 120 MB.

I would recommend Wistia ( The first link on the list ) as it is the top recommendation of any small business video hosting. But as the options differ from service to service you need to check out the others services too. Besides, you'll need also to check their different pricing of the bandwidth usage. But if all these services are too pricey you may opt for pay as you go for streaming videos with Dacast. They have a free trial option.

If you have EVS, Are you using the Cloud option and do you have AWS setup the right way to achieve maximum speed? That would probably be the best and most affordable option.
