There's a new feature on YouTube that allows you to drive clicks from your videos on youtube.com off to other web destinations. It's called "Call to Action", and we think it's perfect for campaigns who are looking to drive users to sign petitions, donate money, or learn more about their cause.

If you're a political campaign and want to find our more, sign up here:

  • Is there a concern that the special interests/campaigns with the most money will be able to get their message heard above everyone else, and silence the underdog?

  • good point. our feeling is that any campaign can start a youtube channel and instantly reach a global audience. these are just tools to help some people take their work farther, just like political campaigns can buy advertising on any other platform. at the end of the day, it's compelling content and an effective message that matters -- advertising only helps amplify what's already there.

  • is this another israel propaganda to mislead american people into another war? to show iran news? why is this a priority promo on youtube? wake up america!

  • forget the new upgrades, just stop banning accounts without cause.

  • Hello Steve, my channel, rosaryfilms, is no longer listed on "News and Politcs", "most viewed all time". It use to be listed on page 3 or 4. I have over 13 million views, with all my videos being categorized under "News and Politcs". Why is my channel no longer listed? thanks

  • im sorry please stop. look its not working youtube was made for the people not for the high priced company. wat happened to you! dont be excited about it just put it bak as it was! youtube is made by the people to entertain the people not sell of and make us donate to the bigger companys!

  • Yeah, I've noticed that and it is annoying, and it is being abused by people putting links to viruses or advertisement in it. Bad Idea. There should be a way for a You Tube User to disabled that whether they log in or not.

  • "Simply because a large corporation tells you to".

    Do you know anything about copyright laws. A lot of the music videos posted here do in fact infringe on copyright protection laws. If you don't own it...don't post it. It's that simple. Youtube could get into a ton of shit for ignoring the requests of those businesses.
