Websites that feature a video on their welcome page are increasing in popularity, as they draw the visitor’s attention from the get-go and create a more interesting environment. If used properly, videos can give the visitor a better understanding of the website by telling a story that will stick with the viewer. They can also add a good and inviting vibe to a webpage, that replaces a static, cold background image. Thanks to HTML5, which supports the latest multimedia, you can share high quality, browser-sized videos that will entertain and inspire viewers.

There are various ways of incorporating videos into a website. One way is to add it on the main page, or at the top of the page (for one-page websites), in order to make sure that it’ the first thing that the site visitor sees. This way you can effectively communicate something to your audience, like explaining the benefits of what it is that you’re trying to sell or advertise what it is that you specialize in, so others can actually see instead of simply imagining what it is that you do. This way you can showcase your work in the best possible way, and increase sales and website views.

Another cool way of incorporating a video into a website is by making the video the actual background of your website. This way, you’ll have the freedom to discreetly control the visitor’s mood, while improving the overall feel and atmosphere by adding this unique touch. The different elements that you use will also play a crucial role. For example, the music that you choose, in combination with different scenes, can serve to ether uplift someone’s mood, or can create nostalgia, or some sort of a sentimental attachment to your video. By editing and combining these different elements, you’ll be entirely responsible for the message that you’re trying to send, without leaving room for misunderstanding, misleading interpretation, or confusion.
