So, I've been following the training in the Affiliate Bootcamp and have just made my first video and uploaded it to YouTube. I have added my YouTube Channel to my Profile.

Everything went well, however, I cannot find where I can add a "Subscribe" Button beneath the video.

Can someone help me with this please because I'm not sure how someone can Subscribe to my Channel without it?

I appreciate any assistance with this. Thanks.

You can't add a subscribe button on YouTube because it's already there. You are the only person who can't see it because you can't subscribe to your own channel. Try using an incognito browser window and you'll be able to see what everyone else (who is not the owner of the channel) sees.

Thanks Marion, I had finally guessed that and Jeff sent me a screenshot to confirm. Appreciate your feedback.

I think the subscribe button is already there, Jenni--at least it was for me on my channel!

That's what I thought, Jeff. But it doesn't appear on my Channel. I suppose I need to get tech help from YouTube.

It's a possibility, Jenni! Are any of your videos live?

Yes, Jeff. I just set up my Channel and po9sted my first video yesterday. My Channel is https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6WEz9m-owPxhZ51xgGyi9g

You'll be happy to know that your subscribe button is there, and I have subscribed! Great job, Jenni!

Oh that's great, thanks, Jeff. Maybe it's set up so that as the owner of the channel you cannot see it. I appreciate your feedback. Happy Saturday.

Thanks So much, Jeff. Perhaps it is set up so that only potential subscirbers can see the button and the channel owner cannot. I appreciate your feedback.

You're very welcome, Jenni! I think that you are exactly right!

Jeff

I think that is exactly how it is, Jenni!

Here's a link that may help you:

Thanks for your reply, Joe. But that's not quite what I want. I thought there was probably an automatic Subscribe Button somewhere on YouTube, but I cannot seem to find it.

My apologies then Jenni ;(

Maybe this one will help you?

Thank you, I'll try that.

Let me know if that one works :)

It should be below your video to the right!
