How To Properly Embed YouTube Videos Into Your Steemit Article And Make Views Count In Your YT Channel [tutorial]

Marly,
Thanks so much for the information! I just made a blog post that was from the "share" section that you said not to use! This is really helpful. I do have another question though - if you use the embed code does it start from the exact second of the video that you wanted it to?
Again, thanks for the helpful article!

I don't understand your question. Embedding means that you just use a window on steemit and the view is generated on YouTube itself. So the clip always starts at timestamp 0:00 after pressing the play button.

OK I'll put it differently. If I want a video to start at 1:05, I know that in the code i need to put ?start=65 in the html code, but it doesn't seem to be working. Do you know how to get it to play from a certain time point in the video?

Hi @mrbmrsb, if you want to do that youtube embed allows that feature. See image how i set it to start at 1:05 and not at the 0:00.

Im not a programmer. But i think you can do that in discription , like 1:05 and what event starts ant that time .
