Why did Moz get rid of their homepage video?

[WickVideo]

I run an explainer video company (Wick Video). When our clients add explainer videos to their homepage, this usually results in an increase in conversion rates / sign-ups (though, we do not track that data for them). In the recent Moz redesign, I noticed their video is gone. Any specific reason why?

This is just a guess, but maybe it slowed the page down enough that it impacted conversions or they saw less people watching the video.  The home page is also usually one of the most visited pages, so shaving time off that page will be win for users.

Hey Jeremy! We took it down because it was old and out-of-date, as it was created a little over two years ago. We loved having the video on the site, but didn't love that it wasn't correct. So we removed it!

Ah, I see. You guys should get a new one! The last one was great, and got me to try Moz
