A lot of people have asked how then can get their video up on the website without using YouTube. Either they don’t want to have the advertisements or other distractions that YouTube can cause or they simply have a video that is too long and they can not upload it to YouTube. After searching around and testing different methods I believe I have found the best system out there for hosting your videos and getting them on your sites.
By far the best servers out there for hosting videos over the past few years has been Amazon’s S3 servers. They are high end and high speed and designed to work well with video and audio. The problem with S3 has been they were hard to use for the average person. That is where Easy Video Player comes in. This software works similar to YouTube where you can simply upload your video using the software online to your Amazon S3 account and easily manage the video from there.
Below is the training on how to get started with EVP and Amazon S3 and how to use the software once you are setup.
Step 1: Open Amazon S3 account
To get started with Amazon S3 simply Click Here to go to their main site. Once there click on the button that says sign up for Amazon S3 and follow the instructions.
Step 2: Purchase EVP software
Getting the software is very easy. Simply Click Here and you will go to their website. When you click on the Buy Now button you will be offered to upgrade to the commercial license. This allows you to not have any watermarks on your videos. I chose to get this option, and would suggest you do the same, but you can go either way.
Step 3: Setup EVP
Step 4: Uploading your videos
Step 5: Changing Video Settings and putting video on your site
That is all there is to it. Any questions or comments please put them below so we can all benefit from them.
