How to Embed Youtube Videos in Your Blog?

A video is a good one only when it is shared. For bloggers who wish to share their original videos or Youtube videos, you can follow the procedure below.

The process is simple indeed, even a dummie can do it. For who wish to share their original videos, do sign up for a Youtube account and upload your video and get the embed code. Otherwise, you can easily insert any public youtube video into your blog. Before this, go to Youtube and search for the video. For instance, if you want to embed a video pertaining to funny kitty, just simply search it and copy the embed code onto your clipboard. After this, sign intoyour blogger account and click the New Post button and select the tab-option 'Edit html' before have the html code pasted.

Finally, publish your video by clicking the 'Publish Post' which is located below the editing board. And that's it, as you can see now, the video you wish to share is embeded in your post properly. If you like, you can change the width and height of the video by replacing the values to your desirable one. You can also make your video go center by adding <div align="center"> and </div> before and after the code, as follows:

<div align="center"><object width="425" height="344" align="center"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/nTasT5h0LEg&hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></div>

And that's it, you have made it. :) Hope it helps.
