Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Are there any SEO benefits of hosting on-site videos using LimeLight?

I know the various benefits of using YouTube but before going forward with a site redesign I want to hear what others have to say.

Thanks,

You an either block them via the robots.txt file or just 301 redirect them to the sites homepage or an applicable page.

I would just 301 redirect them.

This is a great response.  I appreciate it.

So in your opinion it sounds like you believe getting the "rich content" included on the page is more important than getting the additional view on your YouTube video.

I'm torn because when searching for video YouTube appears more often in the top positions over a site even if the site has the rich markup.

Thanks,
