Important YouTube tweak that I learned from Jason Moffat. http://www.ProfitMoffat.com

By default YouTube adds a search bar to your videos when you mouse over the top of the embedded video.Now the last thing I want is for people to leave my page after viewing my video, so I assume that you’re the same. Here’s what you do:

Grab your embed code:

<object width=”425″ height=”344″><param name=”movie” value=”http://www.youtube.com/v/U7OPY9Xr1GM&hl=en&fs=1″></param><param name=”allowFullScreen” value=”true”></param><param name=”allowscriptaccess” value=”always”></param><embed src=”http://www.youtube.com/v/U7OPY9Xr1GM&hl=en&fs=1″ type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” allowscriptaccess=”always” allowfullscreen=”true” width=”425″ height=”344″></embed></object>

This is how it looks with the search bar

Then you need to add this code:

&showsearch=0

Where I’ve added it before the end quote

<object width=”425″ height=”344″><param name=”movie” value=”http://www.youtube.com/v/U7OPY9Xr1GM&hl=en&fs=1&showsearch=0“></param><param name=”allowFullScreen” value=”true”></param><param name=”allowscriptaccess” value=”always”></param><embed src=”http://www.youtube.com/v/U7OPY9Xr1GM&hl=en&fs=1&showsearch=0” type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” allowscriptaccess=”always” allowfullscreen=”true” width=”425″ height=”344″></embed></object>

And you will get it without the search bar
