1. Changing the player color can increase play by 20% – so make sure you can match your brand to your video player. For example, Wistia enables a marketer to customize how a video looks without requiring a developer.
2. Consider adding interactivity to your video while it’s playing. Things like annotations to pop up over the video and CTAs at specific points in a video can drive better conversions.
3. Analytics help you understand who is watching the video. When evaluating video vendors, consider their analytics capabilities. In Wistia’s case, you can not only see who watches a video once but also see who’s rewatching a video and what points in the video they are re-watching. This level of detail can help you figure out if something needs a better explanation, so you can add an annotation with a link to a blog post for more information or maybe it needs a separate video on its own
4. Heatmaps can tell you how a video is watched, including how many times they’ve watched it, where they are skipping. You can even drill down into a particular viewer’s video viewing history and see the order videos were watched and when they were watched.
