Should I use YouTube link if there are 28 videos?

[ad_1]

For embedding and managing video content directly on your WordPress site, consider using a plugin that can handle video playback and organization effectively. Here are a couple of popular options:

  • Video Gallery – YouTube Gallery: Ideal if you choose to upload your videos to YouTube. It helps manage and display videos in a gallery format directly from YouTube.
  • Envira Gallery: Offers a video addon that allows you to create beautiful, responsive video galleries. It supports videos from YouTube, Vimeo, Wistia, and self-hosted videos.
  • WP Video Lightbox: This plugin allows you to display videos in a lightbox style, which could be an attractive way to keep your current design intact.

Hi @warakaku,

For your following concerns:

1) Any recommended plugin for a video player and video list for my site?

  • My recommendation is to just use the YouTube video block. Watch the video: https://share.zight.com/9Zu9vnoW
  • Just add more YouTube blocks to embedded more videos and play around with the layout.
  • Maximizing the use of blocks on your page will avoid us using as many plugins as possible, which could increase your website memory usage. 
  • More memory usage would make your website slow. 
  • But still, you have the option to use third-party plugins based on your preferences.

2) Should I upload all videos on YouTube? Can I avoid ads?

  • Yes, you can. 
  • You need the YouTube link embedded on the page of your website. 
  • You can also disable the ads on your YouTube video. Just follow this step-by-step guide for your reference.

3) If I upload all 28 videos on my media library (not using YouTube), would my site become very slow?

  • There are possibilities that it will make your website slow. 
  • More videos uploaded to your website; more memory usage on your server;
  • The best recommendation is to embedded it on your website.

 Hope this helps.

Jerry
