How To Post Video

Sites like YouTube make it very easy to include video in your blog entries.

Firstly, if you don’t already have YouTube account you need to sign up for one. Click here to sign up with YouTube.

Once you have your YouTube account you need to upload a video. If you have any problems check out the YouTube help section. For a video walk through, check out this video on YouTube!

After the video has successfully uploaded and been processed by YouTube, find the video. You can click the little arrow (blue triangle) to the right of My Account and then click “My Videos” to quickly find your most recently uploaded video. Once you’re on the video screen, you’ll see a box to the right hand side of the video which includes a line “Embed”. Copy the contents of that box to the right of Embed.

Now start a new post on this blog. Just below the “Page Content” header choose the “HTML” option. Now write the text of your post and when you want to insert your video simply paste the contents of the embed box from YouTube. Bingo, you’ll have a video blog post online in no time!
