Video Hosting Site With Remote Video Upload? Vimeo is the solution

Video Hosting Site With Remote Video Upload


Upload videos directly!




Remote upload file is available on

many big and small file hosting sites but it is a shame that YouTube and Dailymotion don't offer Remote Video upload where you upload the video directly not from your computer but from a location on the internet with a simple URL.




YouTube's policy is that they prefer content from the user and not from the 3rd party material. But many people keep their files online on different kind of Clouds and Storage's.

That is when Vimeo comes along with a solution for people who have limited bandwidth and who have limited speed and connectivity.

Vimeo don't offer direct URL upload solution but you can use Dropbox to upload files to Vimeo. So you can upload file directly from Dropbox to Vimeo. Want to know how? here is a little solution:-

Things that you will need to get started are, a Free Dropbox account, A free Vimeo account and that's it! no need to install Dropbox on your PC since it sync the files and it will drop the file anyway on your PC if you install the Dropbox software on PC.

Before you get started you might want to know before uploading video file remotely on Vimeo that free account can upload 500 Mb weekly and after a week you can upload again.

This is the only limit that Vimeo has. There is no length limit on Vimeo by my knowledge.







Now upload the video file remotely on dropbox eg. www.xyx.com/example.wmv using this website below




Now after the remote upload to dropbox simply go to your account on Vimeo and click on file upload and then click on or use dropbox to upload. and thats it your file will get remotely uploaded to Vimeo! This makes Vimeo the best video hosting site to upload file remotely.
