The largest social video hosting YouTube every year is gaining more and more popularity among Internet users from all countries. To further popularize YouTube, the service allows you to embed publicly available videos into the pages of sites and blogs.
Instructions
Step 1
With this feature, Internet users can view videos located on YouTube on other sites without leaving the resource boundaries. It is very convenient and beneficial in terms of saving space on hosting and for site owners who post videos on their resources. Instead of cluttering up precious virtual hosting space, the video will reside on an outside resource that never goes offline and always downloads at high speed, while using YouTube is free and can be completely anonymous. To start posting a YouTube video on your website, forum or blog, first find the video on YouTube.
Step 2
Under the video screen, find the Submit button and find it. If you only want to place a mention of the video on your site, simply copy the link that appears under the video and paste it using HTML tools as a regular link. If you want to place a screen with video and control buttons on your site, like on YouTube, click on the "Embed" button under the link to the video. An active line with HTML code will appear in front of you. This is the code of the player with the given video file.
Step 3
Just below you can find a block consisting of 5 settings points: in it you can choose an action after the user has watched the video, set the default HD Video quality, enable the transmission of a video stream via the secure HTTPS protocol and some other options.
Step 4
Even below is a block in which, depending on the page width of your site, you must select one of the suggested player resolutions or set a personalized video width and height. Previously, YouTube allowed you to choose the color of the video border, but now this option has disappeared. The final result will be displayed as HTML code in the active line below the video. Copy the code and paste it into the desired part of the site through the CMS or in any HTML editor if you are working with a static site.
