Your best YouTube Shorts shouldn\u2019t stop getting attention once someone leaves YouTube. Adding them to your website can put that content in front of visitors who may never reach your channel, while making your pages more engaging. You can embed YouTube Shorts on website pages using YouTube\u2019s native embed code when you want to show an individual Short. For multiple videos, a widget can display YouTube Shorts on a website as a dynamic feed. This guide explains how to embed YouTube Shorts, make them responsive, add multiple Shorts, and set them up across popular website platforms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Embed YouTube Shorts on a Website<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The best approach depends on what you want to display. To embed YouTube Shorts individually, YouTube\u2019s native embed code is usually enough. If you want to add YouTube Shorts to website pages in bulk or keep the content updated, a widget can handle the feed for you. You also do not need the YouTube API<\/strong><\/a> for these basic embedding methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Method 1. Using YouTube’s Native Embed Code<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

YouTube’s native code works well when you want to embed Shorts from YouTube individually without adding a separate feed. It is also the most direct option if you are looking for a simple way to YouTube embed shorts on a webpage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Open the YouTube Short you want to add to your website.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Right-click directly on the playing video and choose the \u201cCopy embed code\u201d option.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Paste the iframe code into your website\u2019s HTML editor or a supported code block.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Adjust the iframe’s width and height if needed, keeping the vertical 9:16 format in mind.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Save or publish the page and check how the Short appears on your website.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    The embed code contains a unique video ID that tells YouTube which Short to load. If you want to embed another video later, you can replace the video ID with the ID from the new Short.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    YouTube Shorts Embed Code Example<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    If you want to embed YouTube Shorts manually, you can use a standard YouTube iframe and replace the video ID with your own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
