Embed Videos Using URL
All you do to embed a video is to use the URL of the video, being sure to place it on its own line. Below is an example of how this works: the pink writing represents ordinary text in a blog page or post while the yellow represents the URL of the video (you would leave the quotes off when posting an actual video).
This would be the normal text for your post or page leading up to the video you wanted to embed.
“http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nda_OSWeyn8″
You would then continue with the text of your blog or page beginning on its own line.
That’s it!
