1. You still can, with a bit of code. Embed as usual, (2) make sure it works, (3) then go into the HTML editor by clicking </> at screen bottom. (4) Add the following immediately after the question mark that ends the video identifier: start=272&end=525;

And then use YOUR correct number of seconds, obviously.

2. And yes, you should be able to remove relevant videos. Copy the embed code for the video and then Add &rel=0 after the URL in the code. Then, paste the code into the HTML editor of your website and publish. You should be good to go.

If you search "Youtube" in the top search, there is lots of training. And you are going to see a Traffic section of Youtube training right within your Hub.

Let me know if you have any further questions moving forward. :)

Very good! I'll see if I can tackle it. I will definitely look up the more training. Thanks Kyle.

I just thought about something else.

You just gave me instructions how to do a task based on my numbered question to you, thank you... Can I or could I use this same type of formate for any technical question and enter it into ChatGPT? Will it understand such a question or other techie questions and give me other detailed steps to accomplish other techie things I ask of it?

Happy to help you out here Karima:

1.At this stage, should we open a video channel for ourselves to use it or not ?

Sure, you absolutely can. If you think you can dedicate some time to creating video, then you may want to start a Youtube Channel.

2.If we want to add a video ( Which is not ours,like the one related to mark
Cuban). When we uploaded in our channel, does there is any rules or stuff restrict that?

You cannot add copyrighted information, and pretend that it is yours. But you can curate content, and discuss particular ideas, referencing other videos. That is fair use.

3.What is the suitable time to embed a video in a content? Maybe after 20 blog post?

Add a video where it makes sense to do so, and adds value to your audience.

Don't add just for the sake of adding, you want to consider that if the Youtube video is not yours, it could lead to traffic leak (if someone clicks on the video to go to source (Youtube). So it can serve as a distraction, but in some cases can lead to more value when it helps explaining something within your content with more detail.

You can embed shared video content on your website; however, uploading video content directly might slow down your website. As long as the content adds value and is relevant to your posts, that would be great :)

When anyone uploads a video to Youtube it is for anyone to embed anywhere, it is in their terms and conditions

I uploaded a video just now to my website. This particular creator asks for subscribers. I would assume that putting his video in my post gives him more visibility as well, which could result in more subscribers.

If not yours, you cannot edit it; however, if it allows embedding, you can share it.

You cannot help the visibility bit; you must choose whether it adds value to your content...

Or can you make your content and upload it to YouTube?

I don't know if making my own video content is something I want to tackle or not. Maybe down the road after I get my blog posts more consistent.

What I meant about "visibility" was that when my visitors click on the creator's video that embedded, they may decide that they want to Subscribe to his content. So embedding his content in my post would be something that is helpful to him. This goes to my original question about putting other people's content on my post. I don't mind sharing and increasing the other guy's content.

It should be to both of you; you will share content that would elevate your content and visitors' experience. If you find that's not true, you may decide to undo it. It is a decision you must make, but also keep an eye on the stats.

You definitely are not. Google wants that. You want to embed though, you cannot download a video and pretend it is your own. You can however embed any video from Youtube on your website without any issue at all. :)

Appreciate your reply. Maybe images are more of a risk than videos?

The letter I received had nothing to do with Google.

There is a law firm by the name of Higbee & Associates that built a system that scours for profit websites to see if any are using images without a license to do so.

I have learned they do this for companies like Pixaby, Getty Images, etc.

The image I had used said it was a "Free to use" image.

I learned later that even if a company has an image posted as "for Free" (no license needed), the image may only be "Free" for a short period. Once the image is no longer "Free" it once again requires a license to use on a for profit website.

The software Higbee uses apparently can't discern
"the specific date" someone uploaded the image (I call Bull on that).

Anyway, I had to waste my time documenting when I uploaded the image or was threatened with paying a license fee or going to court.

I have learned Higbee & Associates are a slimy law firm that operates on the fringe of the law, yet still within the law.

I also learned Higbee & Associates often threatens "alledged" copyright infringers with either paying several hundred dollars for an image license or go to court and risk being sued for $10,000+ dollars.

Higbee & Associates are apparently well known for sending out threatening letters. In fact, someone created a Facebook group called "Scamletterinfo" where group members can share their experiences and how they handled the threats.

From the Facebook group I learned a number of folks pay the licensing fee versus going to court (as hiring a lawyer would cost much more).

Others in the group say they ignored the letters. Some never heard from Higbee & Associates again while others were served and sued.

In the end it's a gamble so I am glad I didn't have to make a choice.

In any case that's why I am hesitant to upload any images, videos, etc...even if I give credit in huge bold letters to the originator of said images or videos.

Read thru this thread and thought I'd pipe in.

Such conduct on the part of a law firm is really pretty low. I realize some people may pay a fee after receiving such a threat even though the reality is that no one is realistically going to sue over the use of an image even if it is copyrighted. The damages a court would likely award are not significant and, therefore, a lawsuit isn't economically warranted. I would certainly never respond to a letter from a firm like Dewey, Cheatem and Howe!

The real danger lies in this. I have seen some content creators advise that, if you use their videos without their express, written permission, they will complain to the platform about the violation.

For me, the loss of my YouTube channel would not be worth embedding a video where the creator has taken such a position. If you lose your channel and you have spent a lot of time creating content on it, that could well be a significant loss.

Appreciate your input as a lawyer and as a fellow WA member. Thank You!

Most welcome Dave! Hope you're having an incredible day!

Yikes. Scary! Not a fan of such law firms. Sorry you went through that.
