How to Link your YouTube Videos to TikTok

After the emergence of a new social media platform, it becomes vital for everyone to spread their presence on all social media platforms. You might have an amazing audience on Youtube, which has to increase across other platforms. The short video platform TikTok is booming in the social media world. 

It is necessary to link and connect your social media accounts to get maximum benefits. It may be possible that TikTok users might not be seen in your Youtube videos. If you want to spread awareness of your videos, then you need to link them with other social media.

Why Do You need to Link your YouTube Videos to TikTok?

1. Increased visibility: TikTok has over a billion active users worldwide, making it a great platform to increase your videos’ visibility. By linking your YouTube videos to TikTok, you can reach a larger audience and potentially gain more views, subscribers, and engagement on your YouTube channel.
2. Diversifying your content: TikTok is known for its short-form, attention-grabbing videos. By linking your YouTube videos to TikTok, you can repurpose your content into shorter, more digestible clips that are more likely to be viewed and shared on the platform. This can help you diversify your content and reach new audiences.
3. Cross-promotion: Linking your YouTube videos to TikTok can also help you cross-promote your channels. You can encourage your TikTok followers to check out your YouTube channel and vice versa, which can help you build a more engaged audience across both platforms.
4. Improving SEO: Finally, linking your YouTube videos to TikTok can also help improve your search engine optimization (SEO). The more links there are to your YouTube videos from other platforms, the more likely they are to show up in search results and be recommended to viewers.

Downloading the Apps

Either you have an Android device or an iOS device, the preliminary step is to install the apps. Download Youtube and TikTok in your devices and sign in.

You are using both of the platforms to promote your content, but here are some of the things which you need to keep in mind. TikTok is the platform that does not provide you with any kind of monetization while Youtube is.

So because of this reason, you need to keep Youtube as your primary social media platform while TikTok is secondary. Earlier, TikTok does not provide you to include a link to your Youtube videos on your profile. But now you can add the link on your TikTok profile as well as you can also share it with each TikTok post.

Sharing the link on TikTok post

To post the link on your TikTok post, you have to just type it or paste it in the description of the post.

The problem with this is you cannot click on the link. It is a non-clickable link, so it will just display with your post. Maybe TikTok will rectify this problem and add this as a feature. 

If the user really wants to search your Youtube videos, then they can manually search and go to the Youtube channels and watch the videos.
