Plugins to embed YouTube videos in WordPress

If you have a YouTube channel and you want to connect it with your blog, this post will help you because apart from the typical insert there are very interesting solutions to enrich the content of your blog.

If a few years ago the content was the king, today the video is the prince and we must take advantage of the fact that it is hitting hard to get on the bandwagon.

A few days ago expert suggested this topic to me that I find very interesting, she has a very cool channel and it is a good idea to include YouTube content on her blog.

So it seemed like a good idea to give a spin to the way to show youtube in wordpress.

It is hard for me to edit video a lot, so I think that if it took me so much effort I would love it to have an impact and I would include them in the blog head.

I have opted for the two most complete plugins since there are many that are very simple for one or two very specific functions when showing videos.

Some of these plugins support Vimeo, there are many people who choose this option because it offers better quality videos and you can restrict the use and passage better.

The paid version of Vimeo is very good, many companies choose it to build membership sites and to distribute corporate videos.

Upload your YouTube or Vimeo videos directly to your blog

If you alternate the publication between videos and post with this plugin, you can generate a post with each video you publish, so you would automatically contribute content to the blog.

It has the free version that does not automate and the paid version that is 10 euros for life, my recommendation is that you install the free one and once seen if you like how the videos are and the integration within your theme buy the premium version because it’s worth it if you post often on Youtube.

Another type of plugin to insert your YouTube videos in WordPress is MyChanel, this plugin is well known but perhaps a bit cumbersome to use because you will need the Google developer key… but it is easy

This is another plugin that allows you to insert galleries on your blog, it has a free version that lets you place the videos of your channel on your blog. It has several payment plans, the good thing about it is that it is a fixed amount for life and is affordable.

If you are affected by country restrictions, the plugin removes them, this is important for certain topics.

Customizable YouTube galleries for wordpress

Gallery, Video Gallery and Youtube Gallery

If you need your gallery to be highly integrated into the blog, I recommend this plugin because it is very customizable, it allows you to customize the style of your channel within your blog.

  • It has 7 different styles of galleries, slider, thumbnails, justified, masonry…
  • Unlimited uploads, you don’t have a video limit.
  • You can edit the video title on the blog
  • Customizable with colors and options
  • Supports Vimeo
  • Well documented
  • Free and paid version (cheap and for life)

This plugin I recommend it is very complete and easy to use, the only downside is that it does not automate so that the publication on both sites is automatic but depending on whether the video is included in a gallery it will be displayed or not.
