How do I add video to my Squarespace website?

Reviewed October 13, 2026, by Long Drive Group.

Choose a supported video block or embed method for your version and hosting provider. Use a poster image and explain the content before asking visitors to play it.

Check captions, playback controls, mobile behavior, loading, and privacy settings. Avoid relying on autoplay for important information. Confirm permission to publish the footage and any music.
