In this article, we will go over the steps necessary for adding a video to any of the website sidebars.

For this example, the site is a Real Estate/Property site, and the video we will add is of a house. The video we are adding is to promote a new house, recently put on the market.

This can be used to sell promotional ad space for existing profiles and external companies.

<h3>
New Property on the Market - Sold by <a href="LINK URL HERE"><b>John Doe</b></a>
</h3>
