Embed Content in Posts

Hi Girls,

I notice that quite a few of you are making quizzes, polls, videos, and other exciting content for your blog visitors to engage with.

Below are some instructions for you to follow to help you embed content into your blog post, rather than just post a link.

I would like you all to embed something of your choice into a blog post, either a quiz that you have already made or perhaps a slideshow of images that allows you to copy a code.

 

CREATE CONTENT USING ONLINE TOOL

There is a wide range of online tools and apps that you can use to quickly create content that can be embedded into posts.

Many of these tools require an account to be created and some don’t allow the site to be used by a person under 13 years of age.  You need to check their Terms of service or privacy page to make sure you are allowed to use the site before creating an account

 

EMBED IN POST

Once you’ve created your content using one of the above online tools you embed it into a post as follows:

1. Copy the embed code.

Usually when you create something online there is an option to copy the ’embed code’ or something similar.
