Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 1:17 am

Adding a video to your Squarespace blog is easy! You can either upload a video file from your computer, or embed a video from YouTube or Vimeo.

To upload a video file from your computer, first go to the page on your Squarespace site where you want to add the video. Then, click the “Add Media” button in the content editor.

In the “Add Media” window, click the “Upload Files” tab. Then, click the “Select Files” button and choose the video file you want to upload from your computer. Once the video file has finished uploading, you can add a title and description for it.

PRO TIP: If you are planning to add a video to your Squarespace blog, be sure to first check with your hosting provider to see if they offer video hosting services. Some hosts do not allow video files to be hosted on their servers, which could result in your site being shut down.

To embed a video from YouTube or Vimeo, first go to the page on your Squarespace site where you want to add the video.

In the “Add Media” window, click on the “Embed” tab. Then, paste the URL of the YouTube or Vimeo video into the “URL” field. Once you’ve added the URL, click on the “Insert Video” button.

Your video will now appear on your Squarespace blog post! You can adjust its size and position by clicking on it and dragging it around. You can also add text or other media around it.

Adding a video to your Squarespace blog is a great way to engage your readers and add visual interest to your posts. With just a few clicks, you can easily add videos to any Squarespace blog post.
