Safe Video Sharing Sites

Need a safe way to share YouTube videos without distracting ads, comments, or up next videos?  Try these sites.  Just copy and paste the URL for the YouTube video in one of these sites and you will get a new link with just the video-no distractions.

Please note, some of these sites are free to try, but have a limit to how many links to you can.  Read all terms and agreements before using.

Edit any video to add questions , engage students, check for comprehension and more! 

Allows you to start a video at any point you specify. You can also use Embed Plus to skip scenes in a video, play it in slow motion, zoom into an area of a video, and annotate a video 

Removes ads from all videos; also hides related videos and comments; you can customize the link to start and stop the video at specific points

Must create an account. The videos will not have ads, but the ViewPure site does. 

Clean up the video page so you only have to see the video, and not all the surrounding text and images, comments and ads.  Get rid of all the thumbnail images on the search results by default, thus avoiding inappropriate or potentially offensive content.
