That is probably best go for most everyone.

You can get a good deal with youtube live events and hangouts "free" and they are hosted free as well. Using regular post edited videos on youtube as well. There are some free applicatons that will put your videos up on multiple sites as well.

You might look into some compressor type softwares for making your files smaller and still retain high quality.

In youtube search enter "reduce video file size itunes handbrake". You can find videos on making your mp4 files a lot smaller.

You can do the same type of search on reducing MP3 audio as well.

I was astonished at how far the iTunes and handbrake tools could reduce my video files.

When you build your website you will find there are players that will embed your videos and play them on your site. Some will even prohibit users from doing a click drill down, which would take your users off your site directly to youtube.

I would suggest, you think about short length videos. Take the time to create a good script and use a teleprompter to read it back on your first videos. Here is a link to the one I use... it's free.

You have to play with it some to get the readback speed for you.

Remember - - creating a script will help you to consolidate and present your information more efficiently and you can weed out trash talk. If your content isn't worth creating a script, you might want to leave off until you have better content. If you waste time in videos...your viewers will lose patience very quickly and you will see it very clearly in your analytics.

Remember - -- all movie trailers are around two and a half minutes. You have to have some very interesting stuff to retain viewers.

Remember --- viewers can't do other things when they watch your video, like they can an audio podcast.

All those people you see jogging and walking on treadmills at the gym aren't all listening to music. Large numbers of them are multi-tasking... listening to podcasts of information they are interested to know.
