The Creative Lady's YouTube Video Embedding Experience

I get Google Alerts for topics of interest. Anytime "The Creative Lady" appears on the web, I get an email alert. The alert show the link to the online site where the term appears. Usually the alert points back to my YouTube channel video posts or random blog post. However, there are times when the term has been used elsewhere.

For example, the alert I received today pointed to a website that featured my video
on the front page! I was like What The. . . After further examination, I realized the video had been rightfully EMBEDDED and not RIPPED & STOLEN. If the viewer clicks the video, they are taken back to my YouTube Channel - which means I still get all view counts and Adsense revenue generated from the outside website.

If you want to create a Google alert, I've created a tutorial.

hi hun, how do i create a watermark? is it like adding comments to my clips when i am editing on my mac?

[thecreativelady]

@louloumatou You don't use a lot of graphics in your videos so you could just insert a lower third title and enter your channel name and let it run the length of your video. I am working on a video for visual reference.

My husband Mike has alerted me to this fact and always calls me to look at sites that he has found my videos. By using the embedded player it allows others to put your videos on other websites and like you said they give you credit and it goes back to your you tube channel and benefit from google ads.

I will have to tell Mike to look into the alert system you are talking about here.

Thank you for sharing.

God Bless,

Elba

@elbacooks4u Creating an alert should save your husband from searching for your videos online. The results will be delivered to you. Let me know if this helps you.
