This article will go over the differences between a pinned and a highlighted comment, why a highlighted comment is more useful, and how to make a highlighted one. Read on to learn how to make a highlighted comment and start making more of them. You&#8217;ll be surprised at the difference it makes!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Highlighted_comment_makes_it_easier_to_navigate_on_YouTube\"><\/span>Highlighted comment makes it easier to navigate on YouTube<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Have you ever noticed that some of your comments are highlighted? These are the comments that appear in grayish blue and are highlighted by the author of the comment. YouTube automatically highlights this content so that you can more easily find it and reply to them. Highlighted comments are particularly useful if you have a lot of comments to read. You will see a notification whenever someone replies to one of your comments.<\/p>\n<p>A highlighted comment is not a signal from the creator or the viewer of the comment; it&#8217;s merely a feature that aims to make browsing YouTube easier. Highlighted comments are not pinned and are moved above the pinned ones. They are useful for separating useful feedback from irrelevant trolls. Aside from making navigation easier, highlighted comments are easier to share. This is because the link to the highlighted comment is easier to type and you can quickly navigate to the relevant one.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Highlighted_comment_vs_pinned_comment\"><\/span>Highlighted comment vs pinned comment<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you want to highlight a comment on a video, you must know the difference between a highlighted and a pinned one. YouTube&#8217;s highlighted comment feature appears on top of the video. A pinned comment has a link that can be clicked to open it, while a highlighted comment has a unique URL. Here is an explanation of both features. The highlighted comment is shown at the top of the video when it is tagged.<\/p>\n<p>The highlight feature of YouTube comments allows users to easily navigate through the comment section. The highlighted comment displays above the pinned comment and has a unique URL. Users can change the URL of the highlighted comment by navigating back to the original post. The highlight feature helps distinguish between relevant and useless feedback. You will find it much easier to reply to a highlighted comment. In addition, you&#8217;ll be able to see the comment of a specific user if you choose to view it in its entirety.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Benefits_of_highlighted_comment\"><\/span>Benefits of highlighted comment<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Highlighted comments on YouTube are a useful tool for both viewers and content creators. Highlighting comments gives viewers a chance to quickly find the comments they are interested in and receive notifications when someone replies to their comment. While some people are concerned about privacy, highlighted comments can be beneficial for many reasons. Among the many benefits of highlighted comments are increased visibility and expanded scope of content. As highlighted comments usually appear first in the comment section, they can also help increase a YouTube channel&#8217;s visibility.<\/p>\n<p>Highlighted comments help increase subscribers and viewers. When viewers see your comment, they will be more likely to subscribe to your channel. Highlighted comments make it easier to find the comment later and respond to it. They also help you save time and make your YouTube channel more visible. Highlighted comments on YouTube are an important aspect of YouTube marketing for beginners. While it might seem intimidating to post comments on videos, they can help you create a more engaging, more effective channel.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_make_a_highlighted_comment\"><\/span>How to make a highlighted comment<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Did you know that you can highlight a specific comment on YouTube? You can do this by clicking on a highlighted comment when a video&#8217;s comment thread is active and you receive a notification through email, notification bell, or the comment section of your YouTube dashboard. To highlight a comment, follow the steps below. When you click on a highlighted comment, it will be redirected to the video&#8217;s comment thread.<\/p>\n<p>First, make sure you follow YouTube&#8217;s guidelines. Commenters must read all comments before publishing them. They must also write in simple and concise words. The comment should praise the talent of the YouTuber and show appreciation. Next, they must ensure that their comment is free from any grammatical errors. Remember that Google hates grammatical errors so double-check any fact before publishing it. This way, the video will receive more exposure and subscribers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Make a Highlighted Comment on YouTube If you are interested in learning how to make a highlighted comment on YouTube, you&#8217;re in the right place.
