Align Text Around A Video | Networking | Sales Website

Networking | Marketing Website
I just finished this site for Bill Gurney of Gurney Talent Solutions.

My favorite thing about the site is the great videos that Bill Gurney created with his iPad. The visuals are great, the music is familiar and attention grabbing and they have a sense of humor. Bill has worked in automation engineering for his entire career, and wanted a site that would encourage networking and highlight sales and marketing tips curated throughout his career.

One tip that I wanted to share with you from creating this site is how to align text around videos.  You toggle to html and add this div code before the video code:

<div style=”padding-left: 10px; float: right;”> THEN POST THE VIDEO CODE </div>  If you want the text to show on the right side of the video use: <div style=”padding-right: 10px; float: left;”> CODE </div>

PS: I used the Classic with Video layout for the SmallBiz Theme for WordPress to build this site.

    I have been researching expand2web by Campbell for a while, but since I cannot find a free trial I have not been able to investigate all the features it seems to have. Mr. Campbell videos do provide some insite, but there is nothing like hands on use.
    Also after reading what is said here I have become more interested.
    I look forward to Mr. Campbell announcing a 30-trial in the future.
