Hosting videos on your own site raises questions about speed, control and analytics. These are the main points.
Playback and speed
Look for adaptive streaming, so viewers on slower connections still get smooth playback.
Player control and branding
Check whether you can customize the player and remove third-party branding.
Analytics
Useful data includes views, watch time and where viewers stop watching.
Security and access
If videos are private or paid, check how access is controlled.
Pricing
Compare plan limits (storage, bandwidth, views) and renewal pricing on the official sites.
Quick checklist
- How is playback quality handled?
- What analytics are included?
- What are the plan limits?
