Anyone here hosting their own videos?
So, i finally hosted some of my videos instead of embedding them from tube sites.
Interesting finds 1. Bounce rate went up 2. Average pages viewed down Also My question is to people who host their own vids.. 1. Watching your hosted vids via mobile will Never be perfect unless you upload the raw .mp4 file?????? 2. How much bandwith do your normally use up average. Thanks |

This is for one of your tubes?
Maybe the vids are not 'optimized'? Takes too long to load, etc? Interesting, also looking for answers.

I got my mp4 vids hosted on a seperate cloud server.. about 1-2 minutes long..some of em 5
Funny how google analytics showing an increase in bounce rate.. i just did [embed]url to .mp4[/embed] to make ALL videos show up properly on all mobile/table devices because using flash players etc make em look like shit on mobile/table devices.. |

Are you using something like fast start on the mp4s? If they come to you that way from sponsor maybe they've already been optimized? We are done with flash. I wish more sponsors would make the switch as well. |

The first assumption would be that their CDN is more sophisticated than the one you're using now. Has time on site changed as well?

the downside of embeding mp4s is that you can't place postroll ads (after the video plays, u see an ad that takes u to full video BUT it shows perfect across all mobile platforms and tablets) |

my guess is the player... have you tried using flash player with HTML5 fallback (or just HTML5 player)? It will look more natural and will give better control to the users...
