This article will walk you through the process of embedding, posting, and sharing videos. If you&#8217;ve already created a video, it&#8217;s easy to follow the same steps when sharing it on Twitter. The process is the same for both iPhone and Android devices. To start, open the YouTube app on your device. Tap on the video icon in the search box. When you tap on this icon, a tweet is created with the video link. You can also add a caption or other message to your tweet. Once you&#8217;ve posted it, your followers will be able to view it.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"YouTube_video_embedding\"><\/span>YouTube video embedding<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Embedding YouTube videos in a tweet is a great way to increase your video engagement with your followers. Twitter is one of the most generous social media platforms, with videos getting more than 300% more retweets than a photo. Short videos get a lot of attention and are particularly effective at gaining followers. To embed a YouTube video in a tweet, you must have access to YouTube&#8217;s website or app.<\/p>\n<p>In order to embed a YouTube video into a tweet, simply copy its URL and paste it into the text field of a new message in Twitter. Alternatively, you can also use an email address. To email the embed code, simply open a new message in your default email client and paste the code into the field. It will then automatically add a new line at the beginning of the video. To make it even easier to embed a YouTube video on a tweet, you can enable the privacy mode for the video in order to ensure that only you and the people you want to follow see it.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"YouTube_video_uploading\"><\/span>YouTube video uploading<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When uploading your videos to YouTube, you need to pay attention to some details.

Once uploaded, these videos can be played in your Twitter timeline or YouTube app. Note that they don&#8217;t automatically play in your timeline unless you upload them directly to Twitter. You can also use the Twitter app to tweet your video. After you&#8217;ve uploaded your video to Twitter, you can use the same process to embed it in your own Twitter feed.<\/p>\n<p>Once you have uploaded your YouTube video, you can use the &#8220;share&#8221; button to share it on Twitter. Click the &#8220;Twitter&#8221; icon and paste the URL into the tweet box. You can also add relevant hashtags to your video to maximize its exposure.

This way, your followers will be able to view it without having to leave a message.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"YouTube_video_uploading_with_UniClix_Social_Media_Manager\"><\/span>YouTube video uploading with UniClix Social Media Manager<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When it comes to YouTube video uploading, you don&#8217;t have to spend your time creating a slick, high-quality video. You can do it right away. Just paste the URL of your video into the UniClix social media manager and create a caption or title. Then, schedule the tweet and add it to your queue.

Twitter is one of the most popular social networking sites and you can send a ton of traffic to your videos by using the platform. All you need to do is craft the tweet and attach a thumbnail image file to it. When someone views your tweet, they will be more likely to click on it and watch the video.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re new to social media, one of the best ways to get more traffic is to optimize your YouTube thumbnail. You can do this by following the golden ratio. This rule tells the brain to spend the least time processing information by placing the point of interest in the first or last third of the image. This will keep viewers&#8217; attention focused on the most important message in the image.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"383\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KgXgbaHXRM8\" height=\"214\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Post YouTube Videos on Twitter If you are wondering how to post YouTube videos on Twitter, you&#8217;ve come to the right place.
