There hasn’t be a defacto winner when it comes to encoding, though Miro Converter has come close. H.264 is easy because it’s been a standard for a long time (I personally use HandBrake), but WebM is quite a bit more difficult.

To do that, you’ll want to make two encodings of your videos: WebM (Google backed) and H.264 (current standard). However, if you want to embed video on your own site without YouTube you want to make use of HTML5’s video element. If you want to put video on the web, you’ll probably just going to upload it to YouTube and use their embed code.
