Velocity – Video Lazy Loading for YouTube, Twitch and Vimeo

Descrição

Velocity is an alternative loading method to the standard to YouTube, Vimeo, Twitch and Soundcloud iframe embeds.

With Velocity you will decrease the loading time and increase overall performance of your website by lazy loading media on-demand instead of on initial page load.

To add Velocity to your site, simply create a Velocity shortcode by selecting a preview image and media type using the intuitive shortcode builder then add the generated snippet to your page.

The plugin works great and does everything that promises. But what I appreciate the most is that Darren, who develops the plugin, is always listening, helping and implementing new suggestions. When you choose a plugin for your website, is important to make sure it’s regularly updated and won’t be abandoned. Darren puts a lot of effort on this aspect. In fact, all the plugins he creates are pure gold. Thanks a lot for all your work and effort. Keep up the good work, man!

An excellent plugin, and one of the easiest to use that I’ve seen. Some people may want control over additional parameters, in which case look elsewhere, but if you just want to put lazy loading videos on a page as simply and quickly as possible, I’d highly recommend this. It also does away with YouTube’s related videos, which is another huge plus point in my book.
