Adding Videos to Blogger Blog


There are three ways you can upload videos to your blog. 

#1 If the video you want to upload is on your computer:

- Click the button shown by the red arrow (see below).



- Click the blue "Choose a video to upload" button




 - Select the file in your computer and press "open"


- Your video will appear in your post







#2 Upload videos from Youtube

- Click the button shown by the red arrow (see below).



 -Click on "From YouTube"





-Use search bar to locate your video






 



- Click on the video you want and push "Select"

- The video will now be in your post.

 
#3 Add a video with its code


- Decide where you want the video to be in your post and type something there like "Put video here" or something like that.

 - In the top left corner there are two buttons. One says "Compose", the other says "HTML". Click on "HTML" and it will bring up the code version of your post.


- On the page where your video is located find where it says share or embed. You are looking for the Embed code. The image below shows how to find it on a YouTube video



- The Embed code will probably look something like this:


<iframe width="640" height="360" src="//www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/W-wewYMJQUM?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

- Copy the code
- Find your "Put video here" words on your encoded post



- Paste the code in the place of "Put video here" and click back over to "compose" to see your post.



Note: Your videos won't play until your post is published.
