First you will need to upload the video file to your hosting. You can do that using the File Manager, or a third-party SFTP program such as FileZilla. We recommend using a SFTP program for files bigger than 3MB.

Then you can create a link to your movie file, or embed it directly into your webpage using HTML code.


Creating a Link with HTML


Insert the link to your video file using an HTML anchor tag.

<a href="http://mydomain.com/myVideoFile.mp4">Visit My Video!</a>


Embedding a Video using an HTML iFrame


Embed the video on your website page using an HTML iframe.

<iframe src="http://mydomain.com/myVideoFile.mp4" title="Watch My Video"></iframe>
