Does Wix Host Video?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 9:39 am

Wix is a popular website builder that allows users to create and design their own websites. One of the features that Wix offers is the ability to host videos on your website. You can upload videos to your site and then embed them in your pages.

Wix does not have its own video hosting service, so you will need to use a third-party service like YouTube or Vimeo. To upload a video to your site, go to the Media tab in the Wix Editor and click on the +Add button. Select Video from the list of options and then choose whether you want to upload a video from your computer or embed a video from YouTube or Vimeo.

PRO TIP: While Wix does allow you to host video on their platform, there are some limitations to consider. First and foremost, Wix only supports MP4 video files. This means that if you have a video in another format (like AVI or MOV), you will need to convert it to MP4 before uploading it to your Wix site. Additionally, your video file must be under 500MB in size. If it is larger than that, you will need to host it on a third-party site (like YouTube) and then embed the video onto your Wix site.

Once you have added your video, you can then edit it using the Wix Video Editor. This allows you to crop your video, add effects and transitions, and even add a custom thumbnail. Once you are happy with your video, you can then publish it to your site.
