Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
A YouTube embed code is a snippet of HTML code (using an tag) that allows you to display a playable YouTube video directly on your own website or blog, instead of just linking out to YouTube. This keeps visitors on your site.
Our generator creates responsive embed code by default if you leave the width and height fields blank. The video player will automatically adjust to fit the width of its container on any device, maintaining the correct aspect ratio.
It is generally not recommended to use autoplay, as most modern web browsers (like Chrome and Safari) block it to improve user experience. It can also be annoying for visitors. However, the option is available if you have a specific use case where it is needed.
You need to paste the code into the HTML editor of your website or content management system (CMS). In platforms like WordPress, you can switch the editor to 'Text' or 'Code' mode, or use a 'Custom HTML' block to paste the code.
