How To Share YouTube Link On Instagram Story
One of the fastest ways I ever found for getting views on YouTube is actually posting your YouTube video or a link to your YouTube video on Instagram stories. So when you do that, people on Instagram tend to click over and watch your videos on YouTube. If the video is short. So I typically don't do this for longer videos I do for shorter videos.
So I wanted to make this quick video to show you exactly how to do it now. Just to let you know, this requires the swipe-up link on Instagram. Typically you need 10,000 followers to get this option in Instagram stories, but you could also do it with a little bit of a hack that I made a different video about.
So in this video, I'll just show you the typical way that you get the swipe-up link with 10,000 followers. If you don't have it, I'll put a link to the other video and I also have a 40-minute free training on my website that shows you how I got to 10,000 followers and beyond. On Instagram. So you could watch that too.
So let's say I wanted to share this video right here. This is good. It's two minutes and 40 seconds. So I could go ahead and just press share right here. So I just press the three dots on pressure. This is just on the YouTube mobile app. Now the link is copied. I'm going to jump into Instagram now and here.
As long as I have 10,000 followers on this profile, I could go into my Instagram stories right here and here I'm going to post a thumbnail. So I'm not going to take a picture. I'm going to use my upload option and post a thumbnail. I already send this to my phone so I can post it this way now to get the swipe-up link.
I have to use the link icon on top, press that, and then you'll see IGTV if you don't have 10,000 followers and wibbling if you have over 10,000 followers. So the hack that I usually use with people for under 10,000 followers, Is a way to use the IGTV link to get this to work. Let me go to weblink here and here, I would just paste that URL to that video that I copied over from YouTube press done and now I could go ahead and share this to my story now from a different profile. If I just wipe up here like this, it takes me directly to YouTube and the video auto place. Now, the reason this is one of my favorite ways to get views on YouTube is because. It's far easier to get followers and for people to click on a link or do the swipe up on Instagram than it is to grow organically on YouTube.
It takes much longer on YouTube than it does on Instagram. So typically I like to grow both of those. Because on Instagram, I could grow with few minutes of effort per day on YouTube. It takes me few hours of effort per day, per channel to get to a substantial amount of followers. So I hope you found this video useful again, make sure you check out the links below.
As I mentioned, I do have a complete guide on actually getting followers on Instagram and growing that page, and then you could use it to grow your YouTube channel as well. Thanks so much again, I'll see you next time.
