Hey guys I'm wanting to make a website and willing to pay for it I want a .com. I need a little help though..
I'm wanting a drone website and I want the background to be a video of drone shots. I just think that looks really nice.
I don't have any website building experience but willing to learn. Does anyone know of a website hosting service that will allow a video background? I dont want to have to press play on it, I want it to just play a loop of drone shots in the background. Thanks for the help.

I managed to do this website with the video background, Phantomrain.org you can use wix.

There are many options. There are services like Wix and others that make it easy to build a website. One thing I'd caution is that with abstraction comes limitations. In an effort to make things easy, you can often lose the ability to customize things. I was hired to help a company with a site they put on GoDaddy. What should have been very simple was incredibly difficult because GD locked everything down so much.

It takes more work but I'm a fan of doing something like finding a host (I've used SiteGround for over a decade) and doing something like Wordpress (just keep it updated). There are plenty of themes and plugins available to let you do just about anything.

I would recommend using wix.com
It is an easy to use website builder, you don't even need to write any code, it has templates to get you started quickly.
However there are some limitations, you can't easily run custom code, and to have a custom domain (including .com) you will need to upgrade to premium wix account.
Nonetheless it is something to check out, it is free to start using, and if you like it, then you pay for the domain and upgrade the account.

Thanks for the replies. This site always surprises me with the knowledge here. Phantomrain, your website is exactly the what I'm talking about. I love it by the way.

I agree. WIX is good. It's simple to use and a person can create a site in practically no time at all.
