How to add a Video on Youtube

Hi, this is Alex. Today I’m going to show you how to add a video to YouTube

pretty simple. Let’s say you go to YouTube and you need to

have an account. So you log on to YouTube.

Once that’s done, you’re going to be able to upload your video.

For that, you see here, there’s a little extra with a camera. You can click on it

on it and then there are two elements either to upload a video or to go live

go live. So for example, if you want to do a live

it will happen here. If you want to put a video online,

it will be here. You’ll click on the first one and then we’ll have this

have this window here. Depending on what you want to do

you want to do, you see here, there’s a button.

So you can either set it to public, unlisted, private or

scheduled. Me for example, what I do initially, if you have

your video that’s ready to be published right away, you can set it to

public. In my case, I set it to private

simply because in fact the video that I’m going to upload, so I’m going to add,

i’m going to have to rework the text transcripts in particular.

So I don’t want to make this video public immediately,

especially since there will also be some adjustments that I want to make

to make beforehand. So I wanted to add in private

what you’re going to do, you’re just going to take your video so for

example, for me it’s going to be this one. So the revenue streams business

model and I’m going to drop it here.

So you’ll see actually, it will load. In the meantime,

you can change the text below, you can put the

descriptions, tags. No, these are elements that I’m going to

i’m going to do afterwards, not immediately, and then actually, so now

there will be a processing part. So there you have it, about two minutes, it can

it can be more or less long depending on the size of your video.

The longer the video, the longer it will take to load

time to load. It will also be linked to the format of your video. There are

formats that are more or less heavy too

so there you go. Another element that is also important to specify is that

is that I was able to let you know before that there was a place where you could put

place where you could put private, public.

If you have uploaded your image or your video and you made a mistake, you can

you made a mistake, you can make the change directly from here, okay. And

you can actually so I’ll clarify. You can also plan in advance,

when your videos will be released. This tab here actually, you can

add a playlist. Sometimes, I’ll have the opportunity to make a video

to show you concretely how to add a playlist on

youtube. Indeed sometimes? it can be a good way to try to

good way to try to organize your content in the best way and to help the people

to help people who follow you or people who have been interested in a certain type of

interested in a certain type of information that you can create. Well

finally give them the opportunity to see other things that

can be a good point. So here we are, on our side, we are at 88%, there are

a few seconds left now,

and you’ll see that there will also be

miniatures that will be directly proposed. So in the video, youtube

will automatically take thumbnails of the video that has been created, ok.

Of course, I know that most of the time the thumbnails that are proposed are not suitable for me because

i know that most of the time the thumbnails that are proposed are not suitable for me because I want to have a video format

that is a little bit more, that calls for a little bit more clicking

let’s say. So I don’t take directly the thumbnails that are here

sometimes it can be interesting, I create specific images but

in any case, you should know that there will always be three thumbnails that will be

proposed by default by youtube. It’s up to you afterwards to create a document

with thumbnails that is a thumbnail that pushes a little more

the viewers to discover what you are doing.

So, indeed, afterwards, there are other tabs here, notably

for translations. If you ever want to have several

translations, put the content in several languages, why not?

why not? It can be an interesting element afterwards in the

advanced settings, you can either allow comments or accept them

comments or accept them. Well overall, if

you’re doing content that’s not that controversial or

controversial or that kind of thing, I would tend

to always advise you to add comments because in fact it’s part of

first of all it creates a real interaction with the audience.

And also, globally it’s part of the elements that YouTube will take

into account. And the more comments you get, the better. Then you have

have chances to get visibility with your video or with your future videos

your video or your future videos.

So there are also reviews, integration, well you can also

choose your category here. So actually according to the,

this is the category proposed by YouTube.

Obviously, in terms of granularity, we don’t have anything very precise

very precise. But let’s say it allows us to have a

a first overview for youtube. Of the type of content

that you will put ok.

So there you go, now that the processing is finished, click on ok.

That’s it and your video is now accessible at the following address.

And so, if I click on it, there is a new

tab that will be launched with my video which is here. So there, when you see well

obviously I don’t have any view knowing that it’s normal since

i just uploaded it. And moreover here you see, I indicated therefore with the small,

so there, the private one. So, we’re sure that it won’t be visible only by month

only ok. So there you go, that was the way

to upload a video on youtube. You see, it’s quite simple actually

youtube is really hyper user friendly. So it’s really easy to upload

videos on youtube. Be careful with the quality of your

videos to make sure you don’t upload something that is not really

very very bad quality. But the bottom line is that it’s

a process that is quite simple. I’ll have the opportunity to explain to you

what my process is for uploading videos and also I do,

i really have a process that is really established in order to

i have a process that is really established in order to create codes and videos that are of high quality. So I’ll have

the opportunity to explain you what are the steps that will follow this one.

See you soon!
