          Add Affiliate Links To YouTube Videos

          Edit the YouTube video you favor to add affiliate link(s) to. Click the Annotations tab and “Add Annotation.” Fill out the required information such as the time you prefer that annotation to show up (obviously it be when you recommend the affiliate product). Near the bottom, add your cloaked affiliate link. Apply changes, then watch the video and test your link.

          You can additionally add affiliate links to your YouTube video description. These don’t need to be cloaked, but I like to use a URL shortern like Bitly to make the link seem prettier/shorter.
