How To Make A Youtube Video Auto Start Or Auto Play

This is very easy to do and also a very common question. When you place a YouTube video on your blog the default setting is set for the video not to start unless play is clicked. If you would like the video to start automatically when someone arrives on your page you just need to add a simple piece of code.

  1. I’ve done this several times, adding this code precisely as instructed, but it doesn’t work and also leaves the YouTube video “box” vacant or dark. Similar codes on other websites I tried yielded the same outcomes. Do you know what I’m doing incorrectly?
