To add video to your wordpress website, you need to write some interesting content that adds value to visitors first.
As an example, Your website’s visitors will enjoy a video about the most expansive cars in the world in 2020 after they learn useful information about each one of these cars (price, maximum speed, power…) from your post.
Steps to add video to your wordpress website?
The easiest way to add Video to your WordPress website is to embed a YouTube video from your channel or someone else’s YouTube channel (The creator of the video will benefit from any income generated from ads showing in the YouTube video).
You can add a youtube video to your wordpress website by following these steps:
- Log in to your WordPress website dashboard.
- Go to posts and click on add new.
- Open YouTube and select the video you want to add.
- Copy the video URL.
- Go back to your WordPress post draft and click on add a block.
- Paste the YouTube video URL and click embed.
- Preview your post.
Keep in mind that creating posts with YouTube videos only will not help your website ranking in search engines and may have a negative impact on your website’s SEO. A YouTube video should only be an addition to an article that is keyword focused and adds value to visitors by answering a question, presenting a solution to a problem or important information about a specific subject.
