Why the Alternative Method is a Good Option
The alternative method is a good option when embedding a YouTube channel on your website. It keeps the YouTube look, which many users or customers find familiar.
Problems with the Alternative Method
The alternative method has a few problems. The layout cannot be changed, so you’re stuck with YouTube’s default appearance. You also cannot change the colors or fonts to match your website theme, making it less cohesive. Additionally, the widget is not directly embedded on your website, which can cause performance issues.
Solutions Offered by SociableKIT

The colors and fonts can be edited match your website theme and our widget loads only once the page has fully loaded, preventing any slowdown of your website.

This was a great way to easily embed Google Reviews into my client's Wix site. I had trouble at first because the business has no physical address listed, but the support team helped me out and everything is running smoothly so far. I recommend!
