Customized YouTube embeds with the extra row of features require Flash support. For devices that do not currently support
Flash (e.g. iPhone/iPad, Android phones without a Flash browser), these customized embeds will gracefully emulate standard
YouTube embeds.
We do have a cool tool to checkout if you want to embed standard YouTube videos in WordPress.

Below are more details about our free and premium features.
Annotations/Clickable Links
Add
multiple timed annotations and calls-to-action to any video, even if you're not the owner. Go PRO and you can
add clickable external website links. See how we use it in
this example
to invite viewers to sign up on MailChimp. You can even use your own text for links as
shown here ». Are you a video marketer needing to embed a product video?
Add links to your conversion pages at the end of playback » Are you an educator? Link to a quiz/survey
and get student feedback.
Chapter/Scene Marking
Viewers might only want to focus on certain parts of a video, especially if it's long. Mark notable parts like sports highlights,
new levels in a video game walkthrough, changing performers, and important lecture sections. Reference scenes by their numbers.
Deleted Video Alerts
YouTube takes down videos all the time, leaving 'empty embeds' across a vast number of already published pages. Find out
when, so you can
avoid the annoying 'This video does not exist' message on your site.
Instant Replay / Loop
Replay an event soon after it happens. Also double-click to loop the replay. You can even triple-click to loop the
whole video. Embed music videos on your site and you might find your visitors using this to loop the catchy songs.
Wizards / Automatic Defaults
Whether you're setting parameters and
automating site-wide defaults in WordPress, there can be multiple options to consider. Our
tools also include wizards for convenience and greater flexibility than tools like oEmbed. You won't have to memorize or
look up codes for tasks like: cropping a video so that it just plays the interesting part, forcing HD,
auto-loading the HTTPS player, finding the best-fit size, and
setting or muting the initial volume.
Diagnostic Reports
Discover important service problems that Google/YouTube are having right now that might affect your embeds, playlists, and
analytics. The reports include issues affecting different devices (e.g. phones, tablets, and PCs).
Video SEO Tags
Automatically add Google, Bing, and Yahoo friendly markup for a greater chance of showing up in search engine video results,
even if you aren't the owner.
Mobile Compatibility Check
More and more visitors are browsing the web using mobile devices. Some YouTube channels, however, block the viewing of their
videos on these devices for different reasons (e.g. preferred desktop ad revenue and user experience). For each standard
YouTube video you embed, you can see if it has restrictions that might limit your site's mobile visitors from viewing it.
Analytics Dashboard
A straight-forward dashboard that's quite informative without being complicated and difficult to use. It was designed from
the ground up to answer specific questions that video embedders really want to know, while avoiding information overload.
Find out: How does the view activity on your site compare to other sites like it? How much do the producers of videos you
embed rely on your site for views? Are you embedding videos that have restrictions that you are not aware of?
