How to put a YouTube video on your WordPress blog

Here’s a Camtasia training video, that I’ve made for you, showing just how easy it is to put a  YouTube video on your WordPress blog. This is the exact process that I use when I include videos on my blog for your information or entertainment. To illustrate the point, I am using as an example the YouTube video I used about Google street view in my last blog article.

Although this video is specific to WordPress (the blogging software I use) the principle for other software is exactly the same: just copy and paste the YouTube code.

This training video by me is a first for recommendedby david, and I hope the Yorkshire accent is not too pronounced!. As always, I’d love to know what you think - please leave a comment.

    Hi David,

    Great video. Easy to follow and understand. Your accent is not too strong. I understood every word. However, I lived in UK for 3 years so I’m a bit biased.

    The presentation was very clear. I would suggest you have a pre-made video on You Tube that pertains to this subject or you tell the audience what the video you are using is about. This will prevent the distraction of trying to see what’s in the video. It looked like a young girl reading in a park. Even though you kept telling me to not be distracted, it was too late.

    Other than that and a brief hesitation about using the copy button, it was a great effort.

    I wish you luck. You could very well become the next Louis Allport. Keep up the good work.

    Hello Rudy,

    Thanks for the constructive comments and the compliments. Will have to speed up in the production of the videos though, if I’m going to be as prolific as Louis!

Nothing ventured nothing gained and aim to do something you have never done before each day. :-)

    Hello, “a wife”,

    I’m sorry that I’ve taken so long to reply.

    Thank you for your kind words and I’m glad that I’ve encouraged you to try it for yourself - it really is that easy. I’m also sure that your hubby would welcome the help - this business is so much easier when you have a supportive partner.

    Thanks too for your words of encouragement to your fellow readers.

    David
