  1. On a computer, go to the YouTube video that you want to embed.<\/li>
  2. Click\u00a0SHARE<\/strong>.<\/li>
  3. From the list of Share options, click\u00a0Embed<\/strong>.<\/li>

    How to Embed a Video on WordPress<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Embedding a YouTube video onto a WordPress site is child’s play. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    All you have to do is get hold of the URL of the video you wish to embed. This can be done a couple of simple ways; click SHARE<\/strong> underneath the video and copy the URL, or just copy and paste directly from your browser bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Now comes the pasting. Create a new block on WordPress and paste the URL. The video should then appear before your very eyes. Easy, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
