You Tube and Vimeo are the 2 largest video sharing sites out there. If you have a Google account then by default you also have a You Tube account so you can start uploading and sharing your videos straight away.

Luckily it is also very easy to place You Tube videos onto your website - here's how:

  1. Go to You Tube and find the video you wish to place on your page e.g.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0K_EOSmqXt8
  2. Below the video is the Share options - see image
  3. Copy the Iframe Code

This is the share code below the video in YouTube

Next login to your website...

  3. Paste (CTRL + V) or Right Click > Paste the iframe code into the page
  4. Save the article and admire your work!
