Wanting to publish video content on your website is great \u2013 but have you stopped to consider whether or not your web design is built for it? If it isn\u2019t your videos may struggle to live up to their potential, and their impact may be diminished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The good news is that it isn\u2019t really that difficult to optimize a web design for video content, and you can start with three very easy steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make place for the video above the fold<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When you publish video content, it\nis always best to position it front and center \u2013 meaning your web design should\nhave space for it above the fold. That way viewers won\u2019t have to scroll to\nfind, click, and play it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Typically it is best to position\nyour video content right below the title. If possible you should make sure the\nentire video player is above the fold, or at least a significant enough portion\nof it that it can be clicked on easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On top of that you could use the scrollIntoView HTML DOM method<\/a> to make sure the full video is visible when it is clicked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Place the video on a clean and solid background<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Videos can make your webpage look a\nlot more \u2018busy\u2019, which is why a clean web design can help. More importantly\nhowever the background that the video is placed on should be clean, and ideally consist of a solid neutral color<\/a> that doesn\u2019t distract viewers from the video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the background of your webpage is an image or pattern, it may be worth adding an element to house the video content that has a solid background. That element should have sufficient padding on all sides to make it look clean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pay close attention to the page speed<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As you start to publish video\ncontent you should keep track of the page speed of your webpage. If it is\naffected, you may want to take other steps to improve the page speed \u2013 such as\noptimizing or reducing the number of images that are on the page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Videos that are set to autoplay are\nnotorious for increasing the time it takes to load webpages. Considering\nautoplay tends to annoy viewers as well, it is generally best to stay away from\nit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep in mind that page speed is\nimportant not only because it affects the user experience, but also your\nwebsite\u2019s SEO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you\u2019ve optimized your web design, you can go ahead and\ncreate and publish video content and be assured it will live up to its\npotential. If you want you could easily record conventional videos, or use a screen recorder<\/a> such as\nMovavi Screen Recorder Studio to produce the content that you need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you can see the steps listed above are relatively easy,\nand yet the impact they have will be noticeable. Overall they should allow your\nvideos to attract more attention and engage viewers far more effectively so\nthat you can truly capitalize on them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
