Question Asked: How Do I Embed a YouTube Video On My Website?
|
Sep 2nd, 2008 |
YouTube has made it pretty easy to put videos on your website. As a webmaster, this is ideal if you want to host a short video, but not eat up your bandwidth by having people view it many times. Simply upload it to YouTube, and then put their code on your website.
When viewing the video you want to embed, simple look to the right of the video. You’ll see a section that looks like this:

Simply highlight the code they provide you, and paste it into your webpage. How you do so would depend on how you’ve built your site. The majority of websites that are using simple HTML would require you to open the page you want the video on, and put the YouTube code on it, and save the document back to your server.
Using other applications (WordPress, Blogger, etc), the way you’d get the video on your site would differ vastly. The jist of it is, get YouTube’s embed code from the video, and put it into one of your website’s files, one of your blog posts, or your database.
It’s really pretty simple, assuming you know how to edit your website. If not, send the code to your webmaster, and ask them to put it on your site for you, on whatever page you’d like it on.
