What is Vidhide? What it’s for and alternatives

Vidhide is a video hosting service: you upload a file and get a link to stream it and, usually, a code to embed the player on a site.

Like other services of this kind, it’s used to share videos without relying on social networks and, in many cases, to earn from plays. Its specific terms are published by the service itself.

When you share a video on a forum or group, or embed it on your site, that link keeps circulating for months. So the first thing to look at in any host is stability: whether links keep working, what happens to files that get no views and whether the service keeps its domains.

The second is your control over the video: organizing it, seeing its stats, deciding whether it can be downloaded and deleting it whenever you want. A good dashboard saves a lot of time when you have hundreds of videos.

• Payouts: how much they pay, how it’s calculated (fixed rate or a share of real revenue), the minimum to withdraw and the available methods.
• Viewer experience: how many ads your audience sees and whether they’re intrusive; an annoying player makes people leave.
• Content rules: how copyright is handled and whether there’s a reporting system. Services that tolerate other people’s content tend to have more takedowns.
• Stability: whether links and embedded players keep working over time and what their policy is for old files.
• Privacy and data: what information they ask for to pay you and how they handle it.
• Current terms: always check Vidhide’s official site, because these terms change often.

Dembed covers what people look for in Vidhide: upload videos for free (up to 20 GB per file), share them by link or embed them with an iframe, and earn money from plays from your first video.

The difference is how you earn and the player: on Dembed you get a share of the real RPM advertisers paid in each country, with a monthly breakdown in your dashboard, and the player carries your color and logo, with no other channels’ recommendations. You withdraw from 25 USD via PayPal, USDT, Payoneer or bank transfer.
