How to Embed a PPT onto Your Blog

How to Embed Your PowerPoints onto Your Blog

            Part of the beauty of hosting an academic blog is showing off all of the hard work you do for your classes to more than just your classmates and teacher. A lot of that work is done via PowerPoint. By following these few simple steps, you can quickly and easily embed you PowerPoint presentations onto your blog and grow your audience to everyone in the world who can get onto the web. If you do not happen to have access to Microsoft’s OneDrive (where you can simply embed the PPT through the share feature), an easy way to embed your PPTs onto your blog is to upload them through a website called SlideServe. First, go to www.slideserve.com, and after you open an account (which only takes a few seconds) click onto either of the easy to find upload buttons which will take you to a new page where you will see yet another ‘Upload’ button. Click onto that as well. It will then ask you to find and open the PPT you would like to upload.  This will take you to a ‘Form’ where you need to fill in some fields (see top screenshot). After you do all of this, it will convert your file. Once it has finished converting, go to your dashboard and select the presentation you would like to embed. Next, copy the ‘Embed Code’ (see middle screenshot). Following this, go to your blog page. Once you are there, begin to write a new post, as usual. To finish publishing your presentation to your blog, type in a brief introduction to your presentation, then hit the link button, paste the link into the edit link box (see bottom screenshot), and finally hit the publish button. At last, if you follow these steps, you can proudly present your presentations to the world.
