How to Stop "Related Videos" at the End of Embedded YouTube Video

[Jon DeCamp]

If you have a YouTube video embedded on your website, blog or elsewhere - whether it be promotional, testimonial, informational, tutorial, etc. - you probably don't want those "related video" suggestions that appear at the end. This could distract the viewer (maybe a potential customer) from your website and send them off on a YouTube safari where they end up watching videos of cats flushing toilets or some such nonsense several hours later. Who here hasn't surfed YouTube? You know it's possible! You want to keep those eyeballs on your website.

With the following simple steps, you can program your embedded video to remain on your video for replay.

1. Go to the YouTube page of the video you want and below the player click the "Share" button.

2. Then click on "Embed" and then "Show More"

3. Scroll down until you see check boxes and tick the "Show suggested videos when the video finishes" so the check mark is removed.

4. Copy the code in the "Embed" field and paste it where you need it on your website.

Your video will now be embedded without related videos at the end. And by the way, this does not work on the YouTube website. You can only do this for YouTube videos embedded on other websites.
