Thanks for all the helpful advice.
We are using Vimeo Plus set to 'private' as a way to keep our costs down. We did look at Wistia and really liked their hosting service and functionality, but it's just too expensive right now.

Use of iFrames to embed video content?posted in Technical SEO
So we decided to add interesting video content we have shot ourselves to improve the user experience on our website. We have read though all the SEO material and advice we could find and decided to use Vimeo to host our videos instead of self-hosting. The videos themselves will not show up on Vimeo or Google as we set our account to 'private', but we notice that to embed the videos on our website - the embed code is an iFrame.
My question's are, aren't iFrames supposed to be bad for SEO? Should we look to another video hosting solution instead? If other websites embed our videos on their site using the iFrame, do we get any SEO credit or the backlink?
Thx.
