Los vídeos dan vida a su sitio web y son una forma estupenda de aumentar la participación de los usuarios.
Por suerte, WordPress hace que sea superfácil incrustar vídeos de sitios de alojamiento de vídeos como YouTube, Vimeo, Facebook, Twitter y muchos otros.
En esta guía para principiantes, le mostraremos cómo incrustar fácilmente vídeos en entradas, páginas y widgets de la barra lateral de WordPress.
¿Por qué incrustar vídeos en las entradas de tu blog de WordPress?
Añadir vídeos a su blog de WordPress es una excelente forma de captar la atención de sus visitantes y aumentar la participación y las conversiones.
Los vídeos ayudan a aumentar el tiempo que los usuarios pasan en su sitio web WordPress, y algunos visitantes pueden incluso preferir ver un vídeo en lugar de leer un texto escrito.
En WPBeginner incrustamos vídeos en nuestros tutoriales de WordPress más populares.
¿Debería subir vídeos directamente a WordPress?
Bueno, puede, pero no se lo recomendamos.
La mayoría de los blogs pequeños utilizan cuentas de alojamiento compartido de WordPress, y los vídeos pueden ocupar muchos recursos del servidor. Si tu vídeo recibe mucho tráfico, es más probable que tu sitio web se bloquee.
En segundo lugar, te estás perdiendo el tráfico de los usuarios de YouTube y de otros sitios de alojamiento de vídeos.
YouTube no es solo el mayor sitio de alojamiento de vídeos, sino también el segundo motor de búsqueda más popular del mundo y la segunda red social más popular justo después de Facebook.
Si no quieres subir tus vídeos a YouTube, puedes utilizar otras plataformas como Vimeo, Jetpack Video, Wistia, etc.
Para más detalles, consulte nuestra entrada sobre por qué nunca debe subir un vídeo a su biblioteca de medios de WordPress.
Dicho esto, vamos a mostrarte cómo puedes incrustar vídeos en entradas de blog de WordPress, paso a paso. Utiliza los enlaces rápidos que aparecen a continuación para ir directamente al método que desees utilizar:
Si prefiere instrucciones escritas, siga leyendo.
Método 1: Incrustar vídeos en entradas de blog y páginas de WordPress usando el editor de bloques
WordPress viene con una gran característica llamada auto-embeds, que permite a su sitio web para obtener automáticamente el código de incrustación de los servicios de alojamiento de vídeo populares como YouTube, Vimeo, etc.
Todo lo que tiene que hacer es pegar la URL del vídeo en el editor de WordPress.
Por ejemplo, puedes copiar la URL de YouTube de un vídeo que quieras incrustar.
A continuación, edite la entrada o página de WordPress en la que desea añadir el vídeo y simplemente pegue la URL en el área de contenido.
En cuanto pegues la URL del vídeo, WordPress obtendrá el código de incrustación y mostrará el vídeo de YouTube dentro del editor de contenido.
Ahora puede guardar su entrada haciendo clic en el botón “Actualizar” o “Publicar” para ver el vídeo incrustado en su entrada en directo.
¿No ha sido fácil?
Una vez añadido el vídeo, puede personalizar sus ajustes haciendo clic en el vídeo en el editor y realizando los cambios desde la barra de herramientas de la ventana emergente.
Puedes ajustar la anchura del vídeo, cambiar la alineación y mucho más. También puede añadir una leyenda y conservar la relación de aspecto del vídeo en dispositivos móviles.
WordPress solo puede realizar incrustaciones automáticas para los servicios de vídeo de la lista blanca. Para otros sitios web, tendrás que obtener el código de incrustación y pegarlo en las entradas de tu blog.
Aquí hay una lista de servicios de vídeo en la lista blanca para auto incrustar en WordPress:
- Amazon
- Animoto
- Cloudup
- CollegeHumor
- Crowdsignal
- Dailymotion
- Flickr
- Hulu
- Imgur
- Issuu
- Kickstarter
- Meetup.com
- Mixcloud
- ReverbNation
- Screencast
- Scribd
- Slideshare
- SmugMug
- Algunas tarjetas
- SoundCloud
- Cubierta de altavoces
- Spotify
- TED
- Tumblr
- VídeoPrensa
- Vimeo
- WordPress.tv
- YouTube
Si desea añadir un vídeo de un sitio web ajeno a esta lista, necesitará incrustar el código HTML completo del vídeo.
Simplemente copia el código HTML proporcionado por el sitio web del vídeo y pégalo dentro del bloque ‘HTML’ en el editor.
Para obtener más información, consulte nuestra guía para principiantes sobre cómo editar HTML en el editor de código de WordPress.
Método 2: Incrustar vídeos en WordPress utilizando el antiguo editor clásico
Si todavía utilizas el antiguo editor clásico de WordPress, puedes incrustar los vídeos de la misma manera.
Sólo tienes que copiar la URL de un servicio de alojamiento de vídeos como YouTube y pegarla en el editor. Si utilizas el editor visual, verás una vista previa del vídeo.
Sin embargo, no podrás utilizar el ajuste de anchura y otras opciones que sí puedes usar en el editor de bloques Gutenberg de WordPress.
Asegúrese de hacer clic en el botón “Actualizar” o “Publicar” para hacer efectivos los cambios.
Método 3: Cómo incrustar vídeos en los widgets de la barra lateral de WordPress
Al igual que en una entrada o página de WordPress, también puedes incrustar vídeos en los widgets de la barra lateral de WordPress.
Simplemente vaya a Apariencia ” Widgets en su área de administrador de WordPress y luego haga clic en el icono ‘+’ añadir nuevo bloque.
A continuación, busca “Vídeo” en la barra de búsqueda.
A continuación, puedes hacer clic en el bloque del tipo de vídeo que quieras añadir. Por ejemplo, YouTube, Vimeo, TED, etc.
A continuación, tienes que pegar la URL del vídeo en el recuadro, hacer clic en el botón “Incrustar” y se añadirá automáticamente a la zona del widget.
A continuación, sólo tienes que hacer clic en el botón “Actualizar” y el widget de vídeo aparecerá en tu sitio de WordPress.
Ahora, puedes visitar tu sitio web para ver el vídeo en directo. El tamaño del vídeo se adaptará automáticamente al tamaño del área del widget.
Para obtener más información, consulte nuestra guía sobre cómo añadir y utilizar widgets en WordPress.
Método 4: Utilizar plugins WordPress Video Embed para incrustar vídeos
Por defecto, no es necesario utilizar un plugin para incrustar vídeos en WordPress. Sin embargo, es posible que desee utilizar plugins para mejorar la experiencia de visualización de vídeo en su sitio web.
Los siguientes son algunos plugins de WordPress que puede probar.
1. Smash Balloon YouTube Feed Pro
Smash Balloon YouTube Feed Pro es el mejor plugin de galería de vídeos de YouTube para WordPress, en el que confían más de 40.000 propietarios de sitios web.
Lo hemos utilizado en nuestros propios sitios web y hemos probado todas sus características. Para más detalles, vea nuestra reseña / valoración completa de Smash Balloon.

Además, incluye visualizaciones, “me gusta”, “compartir”, comentarios y reacciones, que pueden ayudar a impulsar tu prueba social.

Para obtener más información, consulta nuestra guía sobre cómo mostrar los últimos vídeos del canal de YouTube en WordPress.
También puede utilizar el feed plugin Smash Balloon YouTube con el plugin Social Wall que combina todo el contenido de sus medios sociales de Facebook, Instagram, Twitter y YouTube en una sola página de WordPress.
2. Smash Balloon TikTok Feed Pro
TikTok Feed Pro, también de Smash Balloon, es un potente plugin que te permite incrustar fácilmente vídeos de TikTok en cualquier parte de tu sitio WordPress.
Cuando realizas entradas en tu canal de TikTok, se envían automáticamente a tu sitio web y se muestran en un bonito feed de galería de vídeos. Puedes elegir entre múltiples disposiciones de feed, incluyendo cuadrícula, carrusel, lista y mosaico.
El editor de feeds de arrastrar y soltar también te da un control total sobre el aspecto de tu feed de TikTok. Puedes establecer el número de vídeos que quieres mostrar y personalizar los colores, el estilo, el espaciado y mucho más.

3. Galería Envira
Envira Gallery es el mejor plugin de WordPress para galerías del mercado. Lo hemos utilizado en algunos de nuestros sitios web para crear hermosas galerías de WordPress. Para más información, vea nuestra reseña / valoración de Envira Gallery.
Puede utilizarlo para crear fácilmente galerías de fotos en WordPress. También viene con una extensión de vídeos para mostrar galerías de vídeos bonitas y adaptables.
Puede crear galerías de vídeos de YouTube, Vimeo, Twitch, DailyMotion, etc. Incluso puedes mostrar listas de reproducción de YouTube desde tu cuenta personal y tienes la posibilidad de iniciar vídeos de YouTube en una marca de tiempo determinada.
Envira es muy fácil de usar. Sólo tienes que introducir la URL de tu vídeo de YouTube y el sistema inteligente obtendrá automáticamente las miniaturas del vídeo por ti.
Existe una versión gratuita de Envira Gallery. Sin embargo, necesita el plugin premium para acceder a la característica de galerías de vídeo.
4. Barra de suscriptores de YouTube
La barra de suscriptores de YouTube muestra un botón de suscriptor de YouTube debajo de los vídeos de YouTube incrustados en WordPress. También obtiene tu número de suscriptores de YouTube para añadir una prueba social y animar a más usuarios a suscribirse a tu canal.
Primero lo creamos para promocionar el canal de YouTube de WPBeginner en este sitio web. Muchos de nuestros usuarios nos pidieron que compartiéramos cómo lo hacíamos, así que decidimos lanzarlo como plugin gratuito.
5. Carga diferida de vídeos
La carga diferida para vídeos resuelve el problema de la carga de scripts de vídeo incrustados desde sitios web externos, que repercute en la velocidad de carga y el rendimiento de la página web.
En cambio, solo carga el código incrustado cuando el usuario hace clic en el botón de reproducción.
Por cierto, no necesitarás este plugin si utilizas el plugin Smash Balloon YouTube Feed, ya que incorpora almacenamiento en caché y carga retardada para el reproductor de vídeo.

Thanks for the block editor tutorial. I’ve been using Elementor until now and here’s a widget where you just put the URL of the video and it worked. But it’s good to know how it works in the block editor in case the website owner doesn’t want Elementor for some reason.

When I upload a video using the blocks wordpress tells me I must upgrade my account for $96/year. I’ve been using wordpress since 2012. What gives?
WPBeginner Support
If you’re being told to upgrade, you are using WordPress.com and running into a limitation. Our content is for WordPress.org. You can see the differences between the two in our article below:

Hi, In case others may have the same problem I did with embedding a video from Rumble, after many trying many different things, I figured out how to do it by accident lol.
If it is your own video, use the Embed Code but only the link within the src= portion.
If it is not your video, using the “EMBED” button of the video, copy and use the “Embed IFRAME URL” link provided in the Embed pop dialog.
WPBeginner Support
Thanks for sharing that for users using that service

Than I tired to upload videos directly from my pc, but that made my site slow.
Any suggestions how to use embeded vdeos of html from my pc.

Hi. i am using embeds block to embed my YouTube video into the post. In the edit post window, I can see the video is getting embedded/I can see the preview of the video. But, once i publish the post or preview it, I could only see the link of the video and not the preview.
I am not using any plugins for embedding the videos.
Could you please help?

Hello,
i used to embed video on wordpress by simply past the link.
Now, Google search console detect that there are some problems in the two pages I have with video embed.
I’m talking about mobile usability.
Is there a way to fix this problem or a plugin that will fix it ?
WPBeginner Support
It would depend on how and where you added the videos from, using the YouTube embed as an example should not cause an issue unless you’re using an iframe embed that specifies width.

WPBeginner Support
You may want to try disabling your plugins to ensure this isn’t a possible conflict between one of your plugins and the embed.

I have a youtube video on my Wordpress ecommerce site – when the video ends I simply want it to end so that my customers aren’t curious to go see other videos. No “ads” for other youtube videos unrelated to my site- I seem to recall that there is some code you can put at the end of the video URL that will accomplish this. thanks

If it is only when trying to preview the post, you may want to try saving your draft beforehand to ensure that it is not due to the preview not being saved properly

Sorry, this content could not be embedded.
There is no issue with the video, so not sure why there’s an error.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!

If this method didn’t work, have you tried the video block to embed using that? If the error is in a Vimeo embed then the video owner may not allow embedding of the video.

Hi WP Beginner!
First off my wordpress is a localhost. I’ve uploaded the video by adding media. (It shows up in my media library) However, when I put it in a post it starts by looking like it will play then goes black as says:
Media error: Format(s) not supported or source(s) not found
Then it gives a download link.
Is there anyway to just embed the video without giving a download link?
The video is an mp4.
Any help would be great! Thanks!

Hi Kim,
Test your video in different browsers if it still shows error then your video file may not be encoded properly.

hello wpbegginer
how to increase Traffic on Photography site? without any content because my friend start a photography blog he was update only photos in blog how to improve that blog?
Guust
Just a note to anybody thinking of just adding videos to explain things rather than explaining with written words.
Videos with spoken explanations only are not accessible to hearing impaired people and might also be difficult for visitors to your site who do not speak the same language as the language used in the video.
And videos cannot be read by screen readers for the bling.
So make sure to add subtitles and also provide screen reader accessible content if you want or need your site to be accessible.
Cheers

Hello,
I’ve just embed a youtube video on my wordpress site and it plays from that webpage on a desktop/leptop. However, when I access the webpage from my mobile device, when I play the video it opens it up in the Youtube app instead of staying on my website. I don’t want viewers to leave the webpage I’ve embed the video on while on mobile devices. Is there anyway to ensure viewers will not leave my site while on a mobile device and watching my video?

I am having great difficulty getting a video to post on my WordPress blog. I’ve loaded it up to my youtube channel and then copy the URL from there. I paste into my NewPost, taking care to not have anything else on that same line. The video pops up in the edit box, but will not show on my blog when I come in from the outside, like any of you would do.
I’ve reviewed bunches of training sites that all say I am doing this correctly, and yet it won’t show. I called GoDaddy, since they are my blog host, but to no avail. They couldn’t help.
I even tried using the embed code and got the same results.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Jeanne
Thank you for this video. Seems simple enough, but the video I want to embed in my Word Press template is from a news station’s website. It’s not on the white list and although you said we would have to use the embed code instead, you did not provide a link to how to use the embed code.
Cory
This was helpful, but I’m an idiot and need every single step spelled out for me…haha! What may be helpful for others looking for the solution, is more details on the link that you actually use on the wordpress page. It’s shown in the video but isn’t specifically explained. Don’t use the links that youtube gives you in the “share” option. Instead, copy and paste the actual url that is in your address bar of your browser.
Erin Tallman
Agreed. I’m looking for more advanced options, so this actually wasn’t very helpful
