01. YouTube
Let’s get the most popular host out of the way. YouTube isn’t the biggest online video platform for no reason. Sure, being owned by the world’s most popular search engine certainly helps its popularity. But the fact of the matter is that YouTube is exactly what some people are looking for, or at very least, is good enough for what a creator needs. With YouTube, you simply have higher exposure potential, no question. That said, you are also uploading to a platform that has over 300 hours of video uploaded per minute, so to say your video is a needle in a digital haystack would be a massive understatement. Nonetheless, choosing YouTube as a video host comes with quite a few benefits, like statistics to track the success of your videos, an ad platform to start making money on your content, and a very robust music library to add to your videos. Of course, there’s a lot more that YouTube offers, but what takes the cake is that it’s free to upload content, which is not the case everywhere you go. Overall, YouTube remains one of the top video hosting platforms because, well, it’s quite good. Just don’t be surprised if a video of an eight year old blowing a snot rocket outperforms your video by the millions.
