There are millions of people out there, just like you. You can use this information to create custom URLs for your videos and channels, which is more convenient than the generic, one-size-fits-all link. This article will show you how to find your YouTube url on a computer, smartphone or tablet. We&#8217;ll also look at why custom URLs are preferred.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_find_your_YouTube_channel_URL\"><\/span>How to find your YouTube channel URL<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re wondering how to find your YouTube channel URL, the answer is simple: you just need to go to YouTube.com and click on the &#8220;My channel&#8221; option. Once there, click on the &#8220;Share&#8221; option, which will bring you to a menu where you can share your video. Next, you&#8217;ll need to copy the URL to your clipboard. Alternatively, you can visit YouTube&#8217;s official website and sign in with your Google account.<\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve completed the signup process, you&#8217;ll need to find your YouTube channel&#8217;s URL. The URL is located in the Basic Info section of the page. Click on the Custom URL header to see your custom URL. You&#8217;ll need to confirm it before it&#8217;s published, and you&#8217;ll want to change it at least three times a year. However, some users can&#8217;t get the custom URL to work because YouTube doesn&#8217;t save the change. If this happens to you, try some of the solutions listed below.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_find_your_YouTube_video_URL_on_a_smartphone_or_tablet\"><\/span>How to find your YouTube video URL on a smartphone or tablet<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>On Android devices, the YouTube video URL appears near the top of the screen. Tap the video to copy the URL. On iPhones and tablets, you can&#8217;t do this. Luckily, there are alternative ways to share the URL. To share the video URL using your Android phone or tablet, open the YouTube app and locate the video you want to share. You can then tap the video to view its URL.<\/p>\n<p>If you can&#8217;t remember the video URL on your device, download a YouTube URL finder app. The free version of this software is available for download on the company&#8217;s website. Once you&#8217;ve downloaded it, follow the instructions to get the URL. Once you have your URL, tap on the &#8220;Share&#8221; button. You&#8217;ll receive a notification with the YouTube video URL. You can now share the video URL with others on the website.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_set_up_a_custom_URL_for_your_YouTube_channel\"><\/span>How to set up a custom URL for your YouTube channel<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To start setting up a custom URL for your YouTube channel, you&#8217;ll need to confirm that you&#8217;re eligible to have one. To do so, navigate to your Advanced Account Settings and click the link titled &#8220;Claim Your Custom URL.&#8221; This will display the option to claim your own custom URL. Note that your custom URL might not appear if you already have one, or if it&#8217;s a past event URL. In this case, you&#8217;ll have to take specific steps to change it.<\/p>\n<p>You can change your custom URL up to three times a year. Once you&#8217;ve set your custom URL, you&#8217;ll need to sign in to YouTube Studio and change the URL for your YouTube channel. Your custom URL will have your channel&#8217;s unique ID, and it&#8217;s easy to remember. Once you&#8217;ve changed the URL, you can then add or remove numbers. To set up your custom YouTube URL, you must have at least 100 subscribers, have a 30-day-old channel, and have a custom banner or picture.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_people_prefer_custom_URLs\"><\/span>Why people prefer custom URLs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve been thinking about creating your own YouTube channel, you&#8217;ve likely heard about the benefits of a custom URL. Unlike ID-based and legacy URLs, custom URLs are much easier to remember and share. Unlike generic URLs, they are made of actual words. This makes them easy to remember, especially when shared verbally. This is important for marketing purposes as no one likes to read a long URL. Creating a custom YouTube URL can help you raise awareness about your business and get more people to visit your channel!<\/p>\n<p>The first advantage of custom YouTube URLs is that you can create a more memorable link. Custom URLs are easier to remember and read and help you make your YouTube channel link easy to remember. You must also have a profile picture on your channel. After you create a custom URL, YouTube will email you a link for your channel. After you create a custom URL, make sure to add a custom header image to your channel.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe height=\"259\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/CMrv_D78oxY\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"464\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is My YouTube URL? &#8211; How to Find Your YouTube URL on a Computer, Smartphone Or Tablet If you&#8217;ve ever wondered, &#8220;What is my YouTube url?&#8221; you&#8217;re not alone!
