    Yes, no problem.
    On sites like YouTube there's an embed code to do just that. Simply cut the embed code and paste it into your blog post HTML. Easy.

    You can also add youtube videos from your google adsense account and earn money from it. Instructions are simple to follow.

    In wordpress you can use a plugin like EasyTube or You Tube 2 to embed directly the YouTube videos. You can check out my blog for an example if you want to :)

    If You have an adsense account, You have the option of adding youtube videos.
    I was going to put them on my site but I thought the videos was
    too large. Login to your adsense account click on the youtube video
    setup and follow the instructions.

    Hi,

    by simply converting your own raw videos into flv format you can then add them by using code to any page of your blog. If you want to add a web player, ie a menu bar at the bottom of your video then your getting into the using software department. It's very easy to add any video to any blog or website page. Use my signature to get your hands on an flv converter (don't worry, it costs nothing) after converting your videos then your ready for the next step, the coding and customizing of your videos.

    Hope this helps

    When YouTube video makers don't want you to use their content, they have the option to prevent access. If access is there, I think you can assume that it is OK to use. Bear in mind that copyrighted content will get removed by YouTube anyhow, so you might need to go back and check your links if you think that might be an issue.

    You have to sign up for a youtube partner account first. Visit this youtube link and it will walk you through the process.

    http://www.youtube.com/partners

    I am a youtube partner.

    To be a partner and to put ads on your video, you have to own all the rights to the video. If you are uploading someone elses videos, I suggest you stop. When you submit a video for revenue sharing you have to state that you are the owner of the video and that you own the property rights to the video.


    That is a misstatement.

    Just about all of my videos have the copyright logo on them. Some of the videos have been on youtube for over a year now.

    If you are uploading someone elses copyrighted videos, then yes - they will be deleted. But you should not be uploading copyrighted material that belongs to someone else anyway.

    As long as the video is your original production and your property, it will not be deleted - even if it is copyrighted. So if you own the video, and its your property, you have nothing to worry about.
