A WebM file is an audiovisual media format intended for sharing royalty-free videos on the web. The most popular file formats–Mozilla Firefox, Chrome, and Opera support WebM file formats. And Keevi supports it too.
What’s more, you can use Keevi to convert WebM to Gif online. A powerful editing studio then lets you play with the settings and turn the Gif into an eye-catching masterpiece.
Keevi is more than the average WebM to Gif converter. You can trim, crop, and resize the Gif depending on its final use. And if you need to add a CTA, emojis, or an image, you can with Keevi.
If you’re in Keevi’s studio, click “Add Media” then “Add Video” or click the “WebM video to Gif” CTA on the landing page.
On the upload panel, you have the option to upload a downloaded WebM video from your PC. Or extract it directly from the web by inserting its link on the field provided.
Keevi will add the video to the timeline.
Trim the video to a suitable size for a Gif. You can adjust the start and end times manually on the left panel. Or trim the video by dragging and dropping the handles on the edges of the sub-track. Or you can split it.
Add engaging features like text, stickers, or images to the Gif.
Click Settings to use one of the preset aspect ratios for social media or to change the background color of the Gif.
Click “Export” and take the option to download the file as a Gif.
Keevi will render the file in a few seconds.
Save the Gif on your PC or share it directly with your followers on social media.
You can make a Gif using two main methods—stringing a series of images together or creating one from a video.
Choosing a scene from a video and converting it into a Gif is the simplest method. There are no technicalities involved, especially when using Keevi’s WebM to Gif converter. Simply upload your video, trim it to your desired size, and save it as a Gif.
Gifv is a file format introduced by Imgur. It accommodates a larger Gif while keeping the file size smaller than the average-sized Gif. Gifs are also of higher quality. Once you convert your WebM to Gif using Keevi, upload the Gif to the Imgur platform. Imgur will automatically change it to a Gifv. You can then download the Gifv on your PC.
A Gif and Gifv play in the same way—infinite loops with no sound. But Gifv is the preferred format for having animated images on a website. A Gifv stands for Gif Video and is basically a video file in the MP4 or WebM format.
Unlike a Gif where the file must be fully downloaded before it can play, a viewer can play the Gifv when it begins downloading. Gifvs also can be so much smaller in file size than Gifs.
Your Gif will only go viral if it’s fascinating and professionally done. You want to go for a moment that evokes high arousal emotions, such as amusement, happiness, anxiety, and awe. Research your target audience as well and create a Gif that will produce a positive response.
It's also important to do some market research on the most shareable content on the internet. Know what is currently trending while at the same time is relevant to your target audience.
Every year, internet users share over 100 million GIFs and exchange five million GIFs on Facebook Messenger daily.
People love Gifs, and a major advantage is that they are versatile. You can use Gifs to entertain your audience, add excitement to a dull topic, or draw attention to something that would otherwise go unnoticed.
If you have upcoming or existing videos, sharing a snippet of the video in the form of a catchy Gif can intrigue the target market.
Think outside the box and use Gifs to showcase a new product or upcoming event.
Blog articles, e-books, marketing e-mails, and other written content can come to life if you include Gifs. The visual form of the Gifs will also increase the retention rate of your audience. And breaking long text with motion encourages them to read the text till the end.
You can build your social media following by spicing up your page with entertaining and shareable Gifs. Use them to highlight your company culture and show your personality.
It’s important to share the right Gifs that will get the attention of your target audience. Focus on their general interests. And find funny moments related to these interests that you can use in your Gifs.
You only get a second to capture your audience’s attention on social media as they scroll through their feed. And you can’t get this attention if your Gif looks unprofessional.
The wrong aspect ratio could mess up the appearance of your Gif on different devices. Part of the Gif could be cropped, cutting off important elements in the Gif. Or the Gif could appear blurred or awkwardly stretched.
Keevi has made it easy for you to get the right aspect ratio by providing preset options. This ensures that your audience gets the best viewing experience, whether on mobile or computer.
When it comes to Gifs, you want to keep things at a minimum.
Less is better.
When it comes to Gifs, you want to keep things at a minimum—the file size, animations in the Gif, colours, and its length. Use a neutral color in the background and animate only what contributes to your objective. Crop out unnecessary parts in the Gif and trim it to as short as is necessary.
Don’t forget SEO.
If you’re using Gifs in content marketing, you need to optimize them for SEO, the same way you optimize your still images. Customize the filenames and use good descriptive alt-texts. You should also ensure that your Gifs are small-sized such that they load fast and do not slow down your website. When used in articles, Gifs need to be relevant to the surrounding text.

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
