So you’re trying to add YouTube Shorts to your Kajabi site. If you’re trying to create a nice video experience for your site, directly embedding YouTube Shorts might not be a great idea. They can slow down your site, take people off your site back to YouTube and look off brand.

A better way to do this is to use a platform like Clipara to embed your short form video.

There’s no coding required, so anyone can use this method. In this guide, we’ll show you the quick steps to add your video gallery, grid, or other video embeds to your Kajabi website.

What’s Important for Embedding YouTube Shorts in Kajabi?

1. Page Speed - When adding YouTube Shorts to your website, loading speed is a top priority. Clipara takes care of this, ensuring your site doesn’t get bogged down by heavy MP4s or YouTube embeds. It loads video assets only when users interact with them, keeping your website fast and reducing bounce rates.‍
2. Ease of Installation - Getting your videos up and running shouldn’t feel like solving a puzzle. Choose a video platform that provides simple embed codes. Clipara’s simple embed functionality makes it easy to drop in external video galleries or grids with a quick copy-paste—no advanced technical skills required
3. ‍User Experience - A great video experience keeps visitors engaged. Ensure videos don’t autoplay simultaneously, and make it easy for users to navigate between videos. Intuitive controls for pausing, sound, and navigation will improve overall usability.‍
4. On-Brand Experience - Your video gallery should feel like a natural part of your website’s design. Clipara helps you customize the style to match your branding. This ensures your site feels cohesive, unlike if you embed YouTube Shorts directly, which can look spammy and unprofessional.
