Client wants to send YT video in emails to mobile devices?

DexterGallagher · 7th Oct 2013, 11:05 AM

I have a client who wants to send a YT video to their database of subscribers, so I am familiar with YT and selecting the custom size, but what size would work best with most mobile devices?

His intention is to send an email to the list as he knows 99% of his subscribers use mobile devices and will watch the video on their mobile.

Any ideas.:confused:

Maybe you should embed the youtube video on a page that is optimized for mobile devices.

Then in the email, send them the link to the dedicated page you just created.

Landing page optimized for mobile is a good idea especially if you want to capture additional data from the user, however you can also link right to the YouTube video in your email which will allow the users to open up the video in the YouTube app (if installed) or YouTube's mobile site.
