Hello guys, I own a business in Baltimore, MD called Maksimum Auto Detailing. Here is the website: http://maxdetailing.com/ I would like to increase the average amount of time spent on my page while decreasing the bounce rate which is currently at 68%. I have a video of a Lamborghini which we detailed that I would like to play automatically when the page loads in hopes of the person watching it and staying on for a longer time and gaining interest in our company. What do you guys think of this idea? Also, how would I be able to make the video load automatically?
You can set video auto play with object and embed tag parameter like this: <object>... <param name="play" value="true"> HTML: To display video on web page, you can also check playerdiy.com - http://www.playerdiy.com/ It offers easy and quick soluiton to add video to website and create custom Flash video player for Web. This is tutorial - http://www.playerdiy.com/support/tutorial/customize-flash-video-player.html
Firstly, I do not suggest you to make the video auto load or auto play. Because it will make your site very slow. But if you want to have a try, you can set something in the web player. What webplayer are you using? And here I will advice you to get help from some software. I use Moyea Flash Video MX 6, it is a converter actually but it also allows you to add a player on your video. With this software you also can set the player's profile, like auto play, auto load, auto hide the player etc. here is a tutorial will show you details of this: video-to-flash.com/set_to_autoplay/ (sorry I can not post live links yet, you can just copy the url and paste in the address bar ) hope will help.
