Like Vimeo Dailymotion also allow embedding video by providing you an embed code like YouTube that you have to place on your web page..

Lots of peoples are not aware of this fact that Flickr also can be used to share videos. It provides both free and pro plan. Flickr free account will give you 1 TB of memory and pro account comes with unlimited storage space with free from ads.

Instagram

You can share your videos on Instagram, but the limited video length to upload is very short. You can only upload videos which have a maximum length of 60 seconds. But you can use it to upload video teaser of your main video or can share short intro video that is not more than 60-second length.

Metacafe

Metacafe is a community-based video sharing platform which started in the year 2003 in Israel. It also allows you to upload short videos. The average video on Metacafe is just over 90 seconds long.
