STATE OF VIDEO 2015
Similar to autoplay, the data is split specific to using the “loop” feature on videos. 52% of home page videos are set on loop, while 48% are not.
Marketing Commentary: Overall Video Trends
“The data on autoplay and loop are closely connected. A popular
trend for home pages is the use of silent, autoplaying videos - these
commonly give sites a more dynamic feel than standard images.”
Chris Savage - CEO at Wistia

The team at Crayon analyzed the web presence of 50,000 leading companies inNorth America to identify trends related the current state of video marketing. Many

CRAYON MARKETING INDEX #1: THE CRAYON 50K
CRAYON MARKETING INDEX #2: THE CRAYON 10K
CRAYON MARKETING INDEX #3: THE CRAYON 500
• We include only companies, non-profits, or other professional organizations. We exclude
high-traffic YouTube channels, for example, which may be in the Alexa top million.
• We remove organizations focused on adult content.
• We remove organizations that are not targeting the North American audience.
• We exclude organizations that don’t have “well formed” web presences. For instance, if
a company has a home page that simply iframes another site, we would exclude that
company from our set.
The Crayon 50,000 is made up of the 50,000 organizations with the most highly trafficked
web presences (according to Alexa) subject to the following criteria:
The Crayon 10,000 is made up of the 10,000 organizations with the most highly trafficked
web presences (according to Alexa) subject to the same criteria as mentioned above.
The Crayon 500 is made up of the 500 organizations with the most highly trafficked web
presences (according to Alexa) subject to the same criteria as mentioned above.

Understanding The Crayon IndicesThe average Alexa rank of the 3 Crayon Marketing indices is shown below.
• The Crayon 500 is made up of the biggest, most successful brands with massive web presences. This index helps you understand what the largest, most successful brands are doing.
• The Crayon 10k still represents higher traffic organizations with great brands, but it casts the net more widely to provide data on what a much larger set of companies are doing. For SMBs, this is a much more relevant set of benchmarks than the Crayon 500.
• The Crayon 50k extends the analysis to include a much wider range of organizations, which helps us spot trends early, before they are mainstream, and enables us to report significant cross-cuts of the data (e.g., by industry).

3A. Key Findings
• Overall: Within the Crayon 50k, 16% of websites feature video on their home page.• Employee size: The Crayon 50k is evenly distributed across companies of all employee sizes.
Companies with 11 – 200 employees are most likely to be using video, closely followed by 201 – 1,000. The largest employee sized companies are lagging, with 5,001 – 10,000+ at the bottom of the adoption list.
• Corporate structure: The highest adoption rate of video consists of Education, followed by Nonprofit, two company types seldom at the top of tech adoption lists. With room for growth, Government Agency and Sole Proprietorship round out the bottom of the adoption list.
• Industry: While not surprising to see Software and Marketing at the top of video adoption within the Crayon 50k, it’s notable that Healthcare & Medical, Non-Profit and Education follow closely behind, rounding out the top 5 industries. At the bottom of the list, Restaurants and Retail have ample of room for growth.
• In-house video hosting: 21% of home pages featuring video are using an in-house hosting platform.• Third party video hosting: Of the companies not using an in-house solution, 70% are using
YouTube.• Paid vendor video hosting: Vimeo, Wistia and Brightcove are the leaders.
Marketing Commentary
“The fact that 16% of home pages already feature video represents
impressive growth across the past few years, but also goes to show
that the “video revolution” is still underway.”
Chris Savage - CEO at Wistia

3B. Detailed FindingsHome Pages Featuring Video
With just 16% of home pages currently featuring video, it’s clear that we’re still in the infancy of website video adoption.
eMarketer’s predictions on video growth estimate that digital video viewership is soon to surpass 200 million viewers in the U.S. alone, meaning that companies will need to keep up with the insatiable demand for content.

Marketing Commentary
“It’s interesting to see that video usage drops once you crossthe 50 employee threshold. As organizations get larger
it an often be more and mroe difficult to quickly respond to new trends. Tis is a good reminder that marketing
innovation can come from outside the large B2C brands.” Chris Savage - CEO at Wistia

In-house Video Hosting
Of all the websites in the Crayon 50k that feature video, 21% are using an in-house solution, while the majority at 79% opt to use a third party. One trend that stands out is the relatively even distribution of in-house usage by employee size. With the exception of sole proprietor, the range of adoption rates from companies sized 1 – 10,000 is 18% - 23%.
At 23%, the leaders in this category include companies sized:
The data suggests that companies of any size are capable of hosting videos in-house, however, they are in the minority amongst colleagues.
Interesting to note that while Nonprofit and Educational companies have some of the highest adoption rates across all 40 industries analyzed in this report, they’re at the bottom of the corporate structure chart for opting to use an in-house solution.

Third Party Video Hosting Market Share
Since inception in 2005, YouTube has spent the last ten years focused 100% on video. During that time, they’ve achieved an impressive 70% video hosting market share of companies in the Crayon 50k. It’s important to highlight that YouTube is free to use, versus Brightcove, Wistia and Vimeo which all offer paid platforms.
YouTube’s usage base is comprehensive, however, there are a few noticeable trends. Companies that identify as Sole Proprietor or with employee sizes of 1,001 – 10,000 are most likely to be using YouTube. Those companies least likely to be using YouTube are sized 11 – 1,000.
The takeaway here is that Sole Proprietor and Enterprise companies have the lowest adoption rate of video, and are most likely to use a free hosting platform in YouTube. Meanwhile, companies sized 11 – 1,000 are more likely to adopt video and more likely to pay to use a third party vendor.
Additional YouTube Statistics from DMR
• 72% of U.S. millenials, 85% of Gen X and 43% of baby boomers use YouTube.
• “Music” was the most searched for topic on YouTube in 2014, while “Minecraft” was the second.
• The average time spent on YouTube per mobile session in 40 minutes.

Paid Vendor Video Hosting Market Share
The market for paid video hosting and analytics is represented by three quality options, each serving a different core target market. In short, Brightcove is for the Enterprise, Vimeo, the market share leader, serves a broad base of customers and Wistia is gaining momentum, in industries like Software and Ecommerce.
The goal for these companies moving forward isn’t so much to compete with each other (although it is a little bit), but rather to continue defining their unique target markets, culture and taking share away from YouTube
Marketing Commentary
“Regardless of which platform companies choose, there are simply more things you can so with a paid video
hosting analytics platform than you can do without one. As video continues to rise in user consumption, we’ll see
the early adopters benefit the most, just like we’re seeing now with Inbound Marketing/CMS Platforms.“
