What’s Important for Embedding Video in Duda?

1. Page Speed
   When adding videos to your website, loading speed is a top priority. Clipara takes care of this, ensuring your site doesn’t get bogged down by heavy MP4s or YouTube embeds. It loads video assets only when users interact with them, keeping your website fast and reducing bounce rates.
2. Ease of Installation
   Getting your videos up and running shouldn’t feel like solving a puzzle. Choose a video platform that provides simple embed codes. Duda’s HTML embed functionality makes it easy to drop in external short form videos with a quick copy-paste—no advanced technical skills required.
3. User Experience
   A great video experience keeps visitors engaged. Ensure videos don’t autoplay simultaneously, and make it easy for users to navigate between videos. Intuitive controls for pausing, sound, and navigation will improve overall usability.
4. On-Brand Experience
   Your video gallery should feel like a natural part of your website’s design. Clipara helps you customize the style to match your branding. This ensures your site feels cohesive, unlike platforms like YouTube or TikTok, which often display off-brand suggested content.
