    What is the best site to use for this? I want to upload my videos to somewhere that won't disappear and where I can keep them private. Would YouTube be the best? (I have a SmugMug account, but if I ever stop using that the links would go away.)

    Thanks!

    I've done private or unlisted YouTube. If there's music in the video, YouTube may block it or put ads on it.

    I use YouTube unlisted as well.
    I've heard of people using dropbox, but that will only work as long as you keep a dropbox folder structure that won't move or be changed... Any time you change it, the link would need to be changed. Also, my videos take up quite a bit of space... So i don't use dropbox because i don't pay for DB storage.

    Yup, I upload to Youtube as an unlisted video & then hook my QR code up to that.

    Another youtuber over here. I usually put my videos to private or unlisted.

    I use YouTube also... I didn't even learn about the unlisted setting until very recently, so mine are all public. Whoops! :) I guess if someone really wants to see my kids doing their silly things, oh well.

    Yep, YouTube here too. I love adding videos to my pages! I even went back to the pages I had made years ago and added videos for those too!

    I've added them, but use my SmugMug account. It seems to work for me. Though I might have to check my settings, to see if the videos are visible to others.

    I did one from my computer. But it stressed me out knowing that i couldn't move that file, or rename anything to do with it. So I unlist then with YouTube.
    The only one i had an issue with was when I gave too much detail to the song my kid was dancing to, so it flagged it. But I've gone generic with titles, and no issues since.
