Vimeo
Looking for an alternative to YouTube? Give Vimeo a try. Vimeo is a video hosting platform that lets you upload, organize, share and embed videos. It takes most popular video file formats and can even stream your video in high-definition. Need more? Vimeo offers their Plus account with more files storage and other options for a small fee.
