Any good free video hosters?

Sure you can make them private videos that only those with a direct link will be able to see them, bu that is also counterproductive once you have a few. 
as people will follow one link, then click on the channel but see no content, but you may have a 100 private videos that are similar and no one knows about them.

Oh I see, that's definitely a bummer, and verifying an account seems too much for the amount of content I could create. I'm just not that well prepared

Thank you ltxrob!

Currently I'm using xhamster. The recoding and approving process is quite long (up to two days), but it works.

After my first video, I noticed an approx. bandwidth usage of 15.5 GB.

Where did you see this?

that also mean I making Like Ra server's cost higher?

We have more than enough bandwidth, but diskspace is critical.

there are ways to optimize videos

Most important is to enable progressive rendering, so you do not have download the whole video before starting playing it. For ffmpeg it's +faststart option.

I'm also considering uploading my videos to YT

Forget about youtube. Your whole account and email address will be banned in no time.

Yeah, Youtube sucks hard. Pretty girls can do bikini or lingerie tryouts but if a regular looking person does anything remotely similar the channel is gone within days.

Verification process on Pornhub was fast and easy, no complaints so far. I can suggest it as a way to get video's online and maybe get 100 dollars after years and years of getting a few views a month 😁

I think when I get the chance to make clips again this will probably me my route too, scary as it might be!
I can see XHamster being pushed into "verified" accounts too rather quickly, ive seen grumblings on threads aeady.

On my CP/ManageAttachments, there is a summary right at the bottom with the total number of attachments, downloads, space used and bandwidth usage.

Errrm... Xhamster killed my account for no reason and with no notice. Nothing in my mail.

The videos are still there, though.

Logged a case. It turned out that any external links are considered SPAM, apparently including the profile "Website" field 😁 Anyway, it's reactivated now.

So, if you are on xHamster - NO LINKS TO ANY WEBSITES ANYWHERE!!!!

Guess what? The word "hypno" is banned on Xhamster

xHamster requires verification now for the uploader and ALL the participants. So it can't be used anymore.

Next one?
