    Hi, I don't know the answer myself, but have you taken the chance to read all of YouTube's guidelines and rules? Take the time even though it will probably give you a headache! But if you have the knowledge, that will save headaches later.

    Maybe the problem is that you're using the video from the sales page. You can't just take someone else's video and post it to Youtube. You need to spend a little time (or a little money) and create your own videos.

    Well first of all you can't just take the video from the sales page and upload it to your own account. Secondly, you should never link directly to the sales page. Set up a blog (preferably a self-hosted WordPress blog), write a 400-500 word review of the product you are promoting and then link to that post from YouTube.

    I see lots of people direct linking to Clickbank and Amazon products, and maybe you will get away with that for a little while, but you are basically playing with fire if you do that.

    The most important thing is to make your own unique videos. It's very easy to do and if you look around you will be able to find lots of free tools to make videos with.

      Exactly. Set up a blog and write a review of the product. Send all of your traffic there. Put an opt-in form at the bottom of your post. This does a few things. It pacifies YouTube. It pre-sells or warms up the visitor and it also helps you build your list.

      If you don't have money to invest in a domain and hosting there are lots of free platforms you could use like Blogger, Weebly, WordPress.com, etc.

    Hi
    YouTube don't allow us to copyright a video, but i don't think that's is the problem. If you have a video on there but then you put your sales link that leads them to a squeeze or a sales page then that my friend is not allowed.
    Even if you create your own video then put the same link then you video will be taken down.

    There are few ways around this. try buy a cheap domain name on godaddy or other domain selling website and the redirect that new link to your sales link your promoting.

    Its not very easy to makes sales like this as many new people think it is the way forward.

    My advice to you my friend is to start your own web or blog site on the niche of the products you will be promoting. Build your own list and while building a list you need to understand you have to turn these new people in your list who are cold market to warm and then start promoting the product.

    If someone don't know who you are then the chances are very little of investing their hard earned money.
    Build a relationship with your list of people
    give them free valuable information
    make then like and trust you before you start promoting.

    Hope that clears a few things my friend

      I don't believe squeeze pages are an issue. I do that myself and I see loads of marketers doing the same. I believe the main problem is putting up affiliate links that redirect to Clickbank sales page or Amazon product, etc.

    Not stealing someone Else's videos would be a start

    An affiliate link is an affiliate link. It doesn't matter if it's shortened or a re-direct.

    Link to a squeeze page that you control!

    They don't like affiliate links...they suspended my account for my 50+ videos linking directly to amazon products. Linking to your own blog or squeeze page is a better option to stay safe.

    Your videos were probably flagged for using affiliate links. Tough to say without more details, but that's the most likely reason.

      Why not use a link cloaker plugin that creates a link hat just looks like s page on a website.

        Hi all. New to WF. Larry from Virginia here. Anyway... I'm trying to figure YouTube out myself. Posted my first video with my tinyurl link to my ClickBank Optin Page (not my sales page). So, reading the responses above, we cannot use such optin pages? My first video too was flagged. Only gave a link to my optin in for a free download. Can I use Instapage or other such service?

        Not hijacking this thread, just think it relevant to the thread and helpful to the originator as well..

    Hi There,

    I have made my own videos about reviewing different products
    I use a thing called pretty link so say my domain was for talk sake Ilovemarketing.com
    Your affiliate link is iouhaEFOIASSFIOASFOI=HOP? or something
    Your cloaked link would be eg ilovemarketing.com/recommendedbyme
    I have set these links for numerous products and never once got banned

    Unless YouTube has recently changed their TOS

    Wish you luck

    I've been using redirects to affiliate links for years and never had a problem. I've seen tons of other videos with redirects as well.
