Embed YouTube Videos with Standard Flash Player

How to Embed YouTube Videos in a Blog!

The video provides great info on some of the how but I found it a little clumsy so I decided to add a little more detail for those who don't use blogger or want to add another way. I'm using blogengine and it took me a couple of tries to get it to add the code in a manner the code was written and accepted. The reason being the way I have things set up the editor wouldn't accept code. In the end I had to tick the "use raw HTML editor" option.

Preparing to Embed Your Video

I suggest that you start by logging into your blog or website or HTML editor of choice. Open the page or post you want to embed the video on and find the position on the page you will want to embed the code, place your cursor at that point.

Get The Embed Code

Follow the instructions in the video, She made a comment about the area turning blue, not always. Actually if you click the word embed it highlights the entire embed code, then right click the mouse choose copy from the dropdown and the embed code is on your clipboard. Go to the page you prepared and paste the embed code.

Publish The blog or Page

Publish the page or post and you should see the video!
