Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions? We’re here to help.

What social media platform is best for videos?

The best platform for publishing your video will depend on the content of the video and the target market. For example, YouTube is better suited to more long-form video content, whereas platforms like Instagram and TikTok are primarily intended for shorter video clips. Each platform has its own different video types that work best, so make sure to match up your video content to what is most popular on the platform. Other popular websites and apps for hosting video content include LinkedIn, Snapchat, Vimeo, Dailymotion and Wistia.

What is the best video editor for social media?

There are many video editors that you can use for making brilliant videos. You don’t always need a professional video maker, especially for social media clips that are intended to look a bit ‘scuffed’. An online video editor, such as PlayPlay, is ideal for making professional quality videos in minutes, without video editing skills. Use our editable templates and customize your video in minutes. You can also brand your video, add subtitles, screen transitions, overlay graphics, add other assets, and more.

How can I make a social media video?
