As a starting point to embedding media into blog posts or pages, it’s good to have options. When I found this video clip of a neon block, I wanted to use it as an example for media insertion into a blog post. Here are some of the ways I tried to do this:

• using a URL link to the original location https://pixabay.com/videos/id-36748/ but following accessibility guidelines means that I should embed that URL string into some meaningful text to allow screen readers to communicate this information to readers with specific viewing/reading needs. Here is the link to the neon block video on Pixabay as embedded into text. For my own practice as a blogger, I always open links in a new tab if they reside outside of this blog site. If the link goes to something within my site, I set it to open in the same tab.
• using the long string of code as provided by Pixabay, to provide the link and author information. Here it is pasted in a ‘text’ block: Dimitris Christou from Pixabay
• as an embedded video – downloaded from Pixabay and uploaded to WordPress as a media object
