How to add a video to a Landing Page/Website?
Short videos on websites and landing pages are no longer something special. They have become the standard. And no wonder. After all, a picture attracts attention more and conveys more than a simple text. And the video - tells even more and attracts even more than a single image.
In a world where short video content reigns supreme on the web (Insta Stories or TikTok being perfect examples), you need to know how to add a video to your website.
This tutorial teaches you how to do it with just a few clicks. Let’s start!
How to add a video to any site in BOWWE?
To easily add any video to your site, use the VIDEO widget specially prepared for this purpose, located in the MULTIMEDIA tab of the right side-panel, containing all other BOWWE widgets.
1
From the right side-panel, select the VIDEO widget.
2
Drag the widget to anywhere on your site and drop it in the chosen location.
3
Open the Widget Settings.
4
If the video you want to embed is already published on YouTube or Vimeo, copy its link and paste it in the field Url to YouTube or Vimeo.
5
If your video is unavailable online but in the BOWWE library or on your device (computer, tablet, smartphone), mark the box uploaded video and next press the SELECT VIDEO button.
6
Select a video from those available in the library, or upload a new file from your device using the UPLOAD FILE button.
7
Remember to save your changes after uploading the video by clicking the SAVE button in the upper right corner of the Creator!
Congratulations!
You already know how to add a video to your website or Landing Page!
Remember!
Video files usually weigh a lot, making your site slower. To check how fast your website is, use Google's PageSpeed Insight.
Pro Tip
Instead of uploading the video directly to your site, upload it to the YouTube or Vimeo platform and copy its link to the Video widget. The video will be hosted on the platform's servers, and your site will only display it - thus still running fast!
