Youtube embed video code doesn't appear as video on blog post.

I have ever problem showing Youtube video on a blogger post once when I created a new blog. This is called embedding Youtube code. However, embedding code didn't seem to appear on new blog. The thing that puzzled me was that I could use the same method on my older blog to show the post, but it just didn't want to work on my new blog.

I get Youtube video embed code from Share button under the youtube video and then copy and paste the code on my Compose window. I really don't know why it works on my all of my old blogs, but just doesn't work on my newly created blog. I then saw "Edit HTML" tab, next to "Compose". I tried to post the code on "Edit HTML" window and it did work. Really weird, why embedding Youtube video code on new blog should be on the "Edit HTML" but on "Compose" just like the old blog can do. But never mind, at least I know how two methods on how to embed Youtube video codes.

Add or embed Youtube videos in blogger post

Do you know how to embed a video in your post like the one you see in my previous post? Well, that's very simple. You just need to have the skill of Copy and Paste in doing this.

Step 1: Write your blogger post as usual.
Step 2: Open the Youtube video you want to embed.
Step 3: Locate the Embed text box where the the codes are.
Step 4: Double click the code to highlight it. Right click and select Copy.
Step 5: Back to your post and paste it inside.
Step 6: Publish your post and you're done.

You can also customize your video size, border and movie control bar color by clicking the Customize button next to your embed code at Youtube.

You may also embed online games.

Embed code on your site

Searching and browsing are two common activities for any internet users. If you are a blogger or webmaster, who always search for material that could be used for site, you probably notice a button on some videos or flash animation. The button has a word "embed" or probably like this one. I capture the picture of the button from www.vimeo.com Faststone Image Viewer.

If you click on the button, you will see a new window with html code. This is the code for you to copy and paste in your site if you want the object of the button (probably the video or animation where you click the button), to appear in your site. And that's what we call embed.

Using embed code in our site is better than downloading the video and upload it to our site. Imagine how slow the process is and how troublesome to upload a video that takes up a lot of space. But using embed is like giving a link to the site that provides the video and the video appears on your site (unlike using text hyperlink).
