Hosting companies that accommodate Videos easily

[Beverly]

Hello everyone:

I am new to this site and am working on my Blog. I will be including Videos as that is my business and I wanted to know what hosting company that all of you recommend and if anyone is putting Videos on their Blogs as of this time.

I am leaning toward Host Gator and after reading this post going to look at other places than Go Daddy for my domain.

Thanks for any feedback,

Beverly

As Lynn said any good hosting company will let you add videos easily. I'm adding videos to my site and blogs. You can use YouTube, Google Video, Yahoo Video, etc. if you're worried about bandwidth. Upload your video to YouTube and they provide the code for you to cut and paste. They'll even provide you a nice player. You can see how I'm using it here:

If it's really important host your own videos since you never know if youtube goes away or something and your left with dead air.

I'm also using video podcasts and that's working nice for me. It's easy to convert the videos to iTunes friendly M4V file.
