How to Add a Video to Your Blog From You Tube

Blog videos can be an enticing way to build your blog readership and following, since they provide an audio-video experience that can be more entertaining and captivating than posts that only contain text. You can use many video sharing websites such as YouTube and Google Video to add a video to your blog. After uploading your video you will get an embed code that you can copy and paste into your blog's HTML.
