Hello, We currently have a promotional/informational video on our homepage. As you can see, the video is currently hosted on YouTube and we simply added the embedding code that YT provided us. We'd like to keep this video on the homepage but integrate it directly into the site, without using YouTube (this is because at present other youtube videos appear once the video ends which potentially loses us traffic). Can anybody give me some guidance on how to go about doing this? Ideally I'd like someone to give me step by step instructions so I learn how to do this myself- but I would be open to paying somebody to do it for me if that's not an option in your mind. Any help is greatly appreciated. WebDev

I think with YouTube there is an option where you can disable the links at the end of the video to keep your traffic within your site. You may wanna check it out with YouTube. I'm pretty sure I've seen it before. Good luck
Since it's your video, host it yourself and use the object element. <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8" http-equiv="Content-Type"> <title>test document</title> <base href="#"> <style type="text/css"> /*<![CDATA[*/ object { border: 1px solid black; height: 320px; width: 480px; } /*]]>*/ </style> </head> <body> <p><object data="long-div.flv" type="video/x-flv"> <p>Oops, the video didn't load. You may see it at <a href= "...">YouTube</a></p> </object></p> </body> </html> Code (markup): cheers, gary
You could either use the new <video> tag, or just use <object> (Probably preferable). I believe there is a way to disable those video links at the end through your youtube account though.
