How to Embed YouTube on a Facebook Fan Page
Facebook is an online social networking website that allows you to connect with other people with similar interests through Facebook fan pages. If the fan page allows you to post links on the wall, you can embed a YouTube video on the page. The "Video" option on the Facebook wall only allows you to record or upload a video from your computer's hard drive. However, posting a link to a video will allow you to embed an existing YouTube video on the fan site.

Click the Web address for the page in the browser's address bar to highlight it, and then right-click it and click "Copy."

Click "Share" to embed the video on the fan page. You will see a small thumbnail image of the video. When you click this, it will expand to allow you to view the video directly in the Facebook fan page.
