Its not necessary to have video on every site, it depends on niche or market you are targeting for getting traffic also it depends on what you want to try to explain to your visitors.

If you have something to publish for your website visitors which cant is very difficult to express into words and cant be explained in plain text then you can try to create a video for it explaining all details. If you are trying to explain certain topic/procedure which can be explained in very professional way using video then you should put it into video form. Also try to explain such procedure along with video in text form. This will clear all doubts which may your visitor may have for your topic.Usually its better to have a video explaining some technical installation for certain product or hardware, this will give more confidence for all user who are using your product or service.
