 * How do I add a link to a youtube video without the video being embedded onto 
   my page? I just want people to be redirected if they click on the link.

 * Something like this should work fine:
 *     ```
       <a target="_blank" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAjInKiOkqo">Cool YouTube Video</a>
       ```
   
 * Or, from the visual side, type your text you want linked to the video, like “
   Cool YouTube Video”. Then, highlight that text and click the WP link button. 
   Lastly, paste the link to the youtube video you are wanting to use, like this:`
   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAjInKiOkqo`.
