YouTube Subscribe Button


YouTube Video Embed code has been available to add any videos to any webpage, blog, etc. But YouTube Subscribe button similar to Facebook Like or Twitter Follow was not available. 



YouTube has now launched Embeddable "Subscribe" button publicly now. This will definitely improve the subscriptions rate as more businesses will now provide their Subscribe buttons as much as possible.



You can include the YouTube subscribe button wherever you wish officially. but need to meet the "Conditions of use"

  • The YouTube Subscribe Button does not allow you to use the YouTube brand in any way not expressly authorized by the API Terms of Service and API documentation.


  • You may not offer or promote prizes or rewards of any kind in exchange for clicking on a YouTube Subscribe button.


  • Buttons must be fully and clearly visible.


  • You may not use a Subscribe Button to track any data about a user related to the user's actions or browsing activity, including without limitation whether or not a user clicks on a YouTube Subscribe button.

Social Media is known for its relentless changes, that happen very often. All the social media platforms undergo updates/enhancements/changes/feature additions time to time. We need to understand that these never cease and we need to brace ourselves to these changes and stand above.

LinkedIn has introduced a new way to tell your professional story on LinkedIn.



Now you can add portfolio pieces, presentations, videos, and more to your profile. It’s a great way to showcase work that’s beyond words.



This update helps you to integrate all your social media efforts on various sites like Photo sharing, Video Sharing, File/Slide Sharing, etc within LinkedIn itself.



Earlier LinkedIn allowed you to share media contents on Status update, this helps you share media on your Profile and build a media rich portfolio.



This feature helps you better exhibit your profile rather than jsut text/words.



Here's how you update your profile:






  1. Log in to LinkedIn


  2. Goto Profile -> Edit Profile


  3. Click the icon next to any section of your profile


  4. Select videos, illustrations, photography, and presentations and upload.
