  I want my videos on my director/producer credits page to load quicker and be able to be seen by anyone quickly. How much more upgrading should I do? Is there a theme that runs videos better?

  WP.com: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there, I took a look at https://mikerembis819068836.wordpress.com/2021/09/20/producer-director-credits/ and the videos are loading as quickly as they can.

  The slowness appears to be from the Dailymotion embed system itself, and basically, we can’t display videos any quicker than they give them to us.

  For a quicker experience, you can host the videos locally with VideoPress: https://wordpress.com/support/videopress/

  Since the videos will be hosted with your site, they’ll appear as soon as the page loads.

  VideoPress does require a paid Pro plan: https://wordpress.com/pricing/
