These days, over half of Vimeo”s traffic comes from mobile. But that”s not so surprising given that over 3.6 billion people around the world own mobile phones, many of which are equipped with HD cameras. Now, millions of people around the world who never before had the ability to shoot and share videos are creating some pretty incredible things! And we”re doing our best to keep up with the times, and share tips for shooting the best mobile videos possible.
A lot of those videos, though, wind up trapped in our Camera Rolls. But it doesn”t have to be this way! When you upload your videos to Vimeo, you”ll be able to:
- Share them in our gorgeous HD player, without any pesky ads. Or, keep them 100% private.
- Store your videos on our secure servers, add titles and descriptions, and organize them into albums.
- Dig into our powerful stats tools to see how many people are viewing, liking, and commenting on your videos.
If you haven't already, join Vimeo (it's free!) to get started, then try out some of these handy means of mobile uploading…Part 1: Mobile web
