In trying to grow your YouTube audience having an easy way for your viewers to subscribe is KEY. When adding a watermark to your videos it adds a graphical way for your audience to subscribe to your Channel.
YouTube provides you with something called Invideo Programming. It allows you to upload a small version of your logo/branding and have a DIRECT link to subscribe to your channel.

In this video tutorial I show you how to easily add clickable links to your Youtube video descriptions.
Youtube is a great way to drive traffic back to your website OR blog. In order to do this you need to have clickable links in your video description so that your viewers can click on them and go to your external sites.
Here is how you do that:
1.) Open up your edit panel for the video that you want to add the clickable link to.
2.) Make SURE that you type the HTTP:// in front of your links to make them clickable.

If you have videos that are related to the same subject it is mandatory if you want to get the most views possible to create a playlist for those videos.
