DESCRIPTION

Viddler offers a turnkey solution for clients that easily integrates their Viddler video library with their Google Analytics account. Viddler's video player sends video events that are captured and reported by Google Analytics. Viddler's new HTML5 player, Arpeggio, can even capture information about where the visitor came from which is usually difficult with a traditional iframe embed.

Did you know…

Most videos are like a black hole to your website analytics.

Why videos are like Black holes

An iframe is like a window to another website but a black hole to your website analytics.

Website and video analytics are typically sent to two different services that don’t communicate.
