In order to upload a video to your nonprofit YouTube account, first you need to go to YouTube,
w-w-w dot YouTube dot com then you need to come over to the sign in button and click
on that. Then you need to enter your sign in information, like your user name and password.
If you've already been there, it may fill it in for you as you can see that it did for
me.
And then click the sign in button. Now that you're inside your account, you come up to
the upload button. Click on that and you can see here you can either record directly from
your web cam if you have one, or you can upload a video. We're going to upload a video here.
I have a test video ready on my computer and just click on the choose button.
You can see here that it's already started uploading. I'm going to title this nonprofit
YouTube upload video. And I'm going to say for the description, "This is a tutorial video
to teach nonprofits how to upload videos to their YouTube accounts." And for tags, I may
put in "nonprofit tutorial", and what else?
Since the title of this has said the words, "hello world" in it, I'm going to say that.
And you would actually just type in whatever is really relevant. To what you are uploading.
If it's a video about a barbecue fundraiser, you put nonprofit and then barbecue fundraiser,
really whatever is relevant to whatever you're uploading.
Next, we're going to pick a category and there is a nonprofit and activism category. I'm
going to choose that. And I'm going to make it public so that anybody can see it. And
then I'm gonna click "save changes". And it is saved. So, now if you wanted to go see
the actual video, I would come up here and go to "my videos".
You can see here: this is your video. And this will actually take you to the actual
web page for that video, when you click on this. So now we're here. Here is the short
little video that I just uploaded.
Hello world.
It's playing, as you can hear. Very short. So, if you wanted to upload this video to
your Bellstrike website, you'd actually just come up here and copy and paste this web address,
and then put it inside, in the admin area where you can upload a video. And that is
it.
