How to increase your site speed with lazy-loaded videos

I don't seem to have a problem with adding a YouTube video to my post. Maybe because I add one video per post.
Normally, I don't embed a video but I think I will be embedding it from now on.

Hi Holly, I had the same problem. bpais seems to have a tutorial about Embedding the videos. I am certain it will increase your site speed or bring it to where it was.
All the best,
Michael

Sounds weird, rather unusual
Better ask site suport

I ran into the same problem. So I just made a clickable image of the YT video and put that on my post instead of embedding the video.

Honestly, I've had LEEENGTHY articles with at least 5 embedded videos and the site speed was normal, pretty much the same as the posts with no videos at all.

Are you sure it's the video that's causing the problem, Holly?

The best thing will be to link to a YouTube video, put a picture of the video with a play button. And put a link of your video. But not to put it directly, because it slows everything.
