Key Video Marketing statistics for 2020

Video marketing should be a big part of your content marketing strategy in 2020.

The visual aspect of video makes it the most popular format for storytelling and advertising and the most effective as we as humans find it more engaging and more memorable.

An emotive video can convert into action in a similar way that chocolate at a shop counter checkout does.

There are many different ways to maximise a good video marketing campaign from storytelling to vlogs (video blogs), interviews, presentations, adverts, product videos, customer testimonials and more.

Platforms such as Facebook have been prioritising video content for some time now and most other platforms are following this trend.

Still not convinced?

Here are some key video marketing statistics that may sway you…

Best Practices

Our Video Tips blog covers some key pointers for creating a successful campaign.

A few key takeaways to bear in mind:

Videos under two minutes long get the most engagement. (Wistia)

85% of Facebook videos are watched without sound, while 60% of Instagram Stories are watched with the sound on, so captions will guarantee you a lot more views. (Instagram)

33% of viewers will stop watching a video after 30 seconds, 45% by one minute, and 60% by two minutes. (Ad Age)

In 2020 video marketing is going to be bigger than ever.
