Removing the embed titles is a way to make your online video stand out in a more professional way.

When it comes to hosting video on a website, most people do not have the technical knowledge or the computer infrastructure to handle such an application. The common answer is using a third-party hosting site, such as Youtube or Vimeo. These sites provide embed codes so you may post a video to your own website, making it appear as though your website is doing the hosting. However, the default settings for these embeds often contain unwanted clutter, but you may customize the look of your embedded video and remove the titles that appear on the picture.
