According to eMarketer, 76% of businesses plan to add video to their web sites, making it a higher priority than social media integration and 51.9% of marketing professionals worldwide agree video provides the highest ROI of any content. Additionally, Adobe Digital found that 61% of businesses say online video is the top converter for sales.
