Build a Better Blog - Pictures and Video

(Page 4 of 4 )

To include videos and pictures in the blog, you need to know two very basic HTML codes:

Pictures

<img src=http://location of the picture>

For example, if your site’s address is http://abetterblogthanyours.com, and you uploaded your picture to a file named http://abetterblogthanyours.com/celebritysnapshot, the latter is the Web address you would place in the above code.

Video

<object width="3-digit number” height=“3-digit number”><param name="movie" value="http://location of the video"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://location of the video" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="repeat 3-digit number" height="repeat 3-digit number"></embed></object>

The videos you use on your site should always have a code provided with them (wait until the video is finished playing and a screen with the code should appear), making it a simple matter to simple copy the entire code for placement on your pages. Adding little extras like this can help you build a better blog and create more traffic (and interest) for your pages.
