In this article, we&#8217;ll walk you through the process and help you create a video that&#8217;s perfect for YouTube. Whether you want to target a specific age group, restrict your video&#8217;s audience to 18 years of age, add cards and subtitles, or set an expiration date, we&#8217;ve got you covered.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_can_restrict_your_videos_audience_to_18-year-olds\"><\/span>You can restrict your video&#8217;s audience to 18-year-olds<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Before you publish your video on YouTube, you should first make sure it doesn&#8217;t have an age restriction. The age restriction is based on the age of your profile in Google, so if you&#8217;re 18 and you&#8217;d like to restrict your video to 18-year-olds, you can change the date of your birth. Simply click the &#8220;Update&#8221; button at the bottom right corner of your profile and then enter your new age to change the restriction.<\/p>\n<p>You can also block comments from being added to your video. YouTube&#8217;s Restricted Mode prevents users under the age of 18 from viewing NSFW videos. This mode can be disabled by the owner of the video, but this option is only available to YouTube users 18 years old and older. To enable the restriction, sign in to your YouTube account and then select your channel&#8217;s VIDEOS section. Then, select the video you want to restrict.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_can_add_subtitles\"><\/span>You can add subtitles<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are a few steps to follow in order to add subtitles to a YouTube video. The first step is to open up a text editor, such as Notepad on Windows or TextEdit on Mac. Subtitle files have specific format, with the subtitle number occupying a separate line, and a timestamp in the format hour:minute:second:millisecond. For example, &#8220;This is a sample subtitle text&#8221; will appear at 1 hour, fifteen minutes, and five seconds in the video.<\/p>\n<p>When adding subtitles to a YouTube video, be sure to include a clear description of the language. Closed captions are required for U.S. television content after September 30, 2012, so it is important to adhere to these regulations. If you are not sure if your video requires captions, you can always listen to it first before entering text. You can also use playback to listen to a spoken line before adding captions.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_can_add_an_end_screen\"><\/span>You can add an end screen<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are many ways to create an end screen for a YouTube video. Adding one is a good way to encourage viewers to stay on your channel. YouTube has several templates for end screens, so you can choose a design that you think works best. You can even design your own custom end screen if you want! You can also edit the elements on your end screen by using the editor tab. If you want a longer end screen, you can add it to the end of your video.<\/p>\n<p>Before you create your end screen for YouTube, you need to understand the dimensions of the video. This will ensure that the screen is not too big or too small. Also, keep in mind that YouTube will not allow you to put the end screen elements on the edges of the screen. Make sure to leave plenty of margins for the edges of your design. This will help your end screen stand out. After all, you don&#8217;t want your video to be cut short!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_can_add_cards\"><\/span>You can add cards<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re wondering how you can add cards to a YouTube video, keep reading. There are a number of ways to do it. One way is to use a video editing tool like TubeBuddy. It allows you to add cards to your videos in bulk, edit them, and apply them as needed. You can also choose the cards you want to appear at the top of your video or the bottom.<\/p>\n<p>To add cards to your YouTube video, visit the advanced tab in the settings of the channel. There, you can include a website link, a call to action message, a teaser text, and a custom image. You can have as many cards as you want, but it&#8217;s important to keep them separated to avoid confusing the audience. You can also use cards to promote a specific product or service, or to direct people to a page where more information is available. You can also choose how long the video will be.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_can_add_music\"><\/span>You can add music<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To add music to a YouTube video, you will first need to find a track that fits the style of your video. You can also search for music by title, instrument, mood, genre, or popularity. To search for specific music, use the advanced search option or type in the song title or sound effects you want to use. Once you&#8217;ve found a track that suits your video&#8217;s tone, click on the &#8220;Publish&#8221; button to save the changes and add the track to your video.<\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve selected a track, you can use the built-in music library in the video editor to play it back before you add it to your video. If you don&#8217;t have any music on your computer, you can download a track that is already on your computer. Alternatively, you can use a free music service like Spotify to get the exact music you want. Just make sure to check the license agreement first before downloading the track.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Upload a YouTube Video If you&#8217;ve been wondering how to upload a YouTube video, you&#8217;ve come to the right place.
