Give your customers more resources

Whether your videos are entertaining or educational, embedding your videos from YouTube onto your site allows your customers to view content without leaving your site.

Seamless viewing makes for a positive customer experience and a killer interface.

When you embed a YouTube video on your site, you give customers access to content they might not have been aware of. They can then subscribe to your channel via annotations in the embedded video. Set your videos to function however you deem fit — autoplay from the beginning, start at a specific timestamp, captions, etc.

Pro tip: Don’t forget, a strong YouTube presence greatly helps with your social media marketing!
