Videos can be somewhat large, depending on how they are compressed and how long they are. The longer of a video it is, naturally the larger the file size will be. Also different formats require different players for end-users.
The best video format we have found is Quicktime and Flash Video (.flv) because of wide use of Quicktime and Flash plugins among both Mac and PC users. Those two video formats also offer a good balance between file size and video quality.

Here is a list of video editing software you can use to make your videos: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_video_editing_software
And here is an excellent website that auto-creates the necessary HTML code for embedding videos on your website: http://cit.ucsf.edu/embedmedia/step1.php (for server type, choose "A Web server"). Please note that you must first upload your video to your website before using creating the embedding code.
You can also simply upload the video to your website and hardlink a hyperlink to the video file.
The most important thing to remember is that videos use diskspace and data transfer resources, so choosing the right video format and size will be a balance between video quality and file size.
You should use either our ISLAMDOMAINS hosting package or a larger package to properly host videos on your website.
