    Adding images, videos, or other media can make your blog posts more engaging. Here’s how to do it in WordPress:

    1. Open the Post Editor
      – Go to your Dashboard.
      – Click PostsAll Posts (or Add New if you’re starting fresh).
      – Select the post you want to edit.

    2. Add an Image
      – In the editor, click the + button where you want the image.
      – Choose Image from the block menu.
      – Upload a new file from your computer, or pick one from your Media Library.

    3. Add a Gallery (optional)
      – Use the Gallery block to upload multiple images at once.
      – You can rearrange them or choose how many columns to show.

    4. Add a Video
      – Click the + button and select YouTube, Vimeo, or Embed.
      – Paste the link to your video, and it will appear directly in your post.

    5. Other Media
      – You can also add files (PDF, audio, etc.) with the File block.
      – This creates a clickable download link.

    Tips:

    • Always add Alt Text to your images (good for accessibility and SEO).

    • Resize large files before uploading — it helps your blog load faster.

    • Preview your post to check the layout before publishing.
