How do I add a personal video, saved on my computer, to the current hub I am writing?
I am unable to figure out how to add a personal video to my hub. The options provider are for Google or Youtube videos. Do I need to upload to one of these services before I can use my personal videos? Do I use the video hub feature although most of my hub consists of pictures and script. Thanks in advance for your help.
Have you tried uploading to a free personal space other than these providers? You MAY be able to just add the url to your hub. If not, put it up on Youtube, as Google owns it and it may give your hub a boost.
Or you could host it on your own website, if you have one, then share the url with HubPages.
Personally, I think uploading it to Youtube, TinyPic, Google Videos, Vimeo, or MetaCafe would be best.

In order to add your own video to a hub, do you have to join youtube first, upload your video, then put it in the hub capsule? I wish I could upload my videos like I upload my photos.

I'm working on my latest hub, but ran out of time and energy last night before finishing it to any decent quality. So I saved it unpublished.It has a 49 right now. But if nobody can read it, thus rate it, where does such a number come from?Thanks again.-stan

Do you guys back up your hubs?Hey guys, do you guys back up your hubs locally? I'm kinda wondering if I should. Granted, I only have made a few, but I guess it's never too soon? Also, if you do back up your hubs, how do you do it?
