With WordPress you use iframes when you plan on adding your own content but don’t want to use up too much disk space. A good example would be embedding a brand video about your company. You can upload it to your YouTube channel and embed it with an iframe in your WordPress website. This way, the storage load lies with YouTube, but the movie is still fully streamable on your site.
You can add images or other large media in this way. Another advantage of embedding iframes is that they allow you to discreetly link to your social media channels. A smart and thought-out interaction of your various online channels leaves a professional impression with clients and ensures that your customers or website visitors can network with you more easily.
WordPress iframes are an optimal solution when you want to include third-party content. Copyright stipulations tend to apply when adding other people’s content, but when embedding media from external sources via iframes to your WordPress site, you are on the safe side.
