How To Embed Your Video from YouTube into a Blog Post (Updated)

by Lynn Horridge

1. Click on Add New Post

2. Click HTML tab to enter HTML mode for embedding

3. Go to your video on YouTube. To the right of the video you’ll see the embed code. If the “object width” is more than 480, click the small gear-shaped icon next to the embed code, and change the thumbnail size to 480 (or 425, if your video is not wide-screen).

4. Copy the embed code to the right of the video  (not the link info – the embed info is long but just click and drag to paste)

5. Paste embed code into post

And you’re done!
