Question regarding YouTube

7 replies
Hi. I have a professional service I am selling on eBay. I was wondering if YouTube allowed you to submit a video with a link beneath if to an eBay listing. Hope you can advise me on this.

Regards
Richard

    I would be careful with any affiliate link placed under Youtube video's or in your case a link to a product that you are selling on Ebay.

    Youtubes rules are very vague so they can change it when they deem fit look at my blog guest what happened to them recently. You may be fine, or you may not!

    But why take the chance?

    I would point them to a page that tells about your product a blog, classified ad etc.. from there you can link to your Ebay service and you will be fine.

    I agree with Jay - take them to a blog post and you should be fine. Nothing sucks more than having your whole channel suspended!
    Good luck!

    I think that he wants to get some traffic from Youtube guys.

    I've done marketing on Youtube for years, never had any problems. OP feel free to do it.

    "If" you get suspended (don't see reason why), just reupload those few vids? Is like 20 min of work, you have nothing to lose.

      Spot on!

      If you're really worried about suspension just link them to a squeeze page, collect their email, and then to the offer. Or, as someone suggested, to a blog post optimized for buyers of what you're offering.

      Or, sign into one of your alternate (not main) Youtube accounts and post the link to eBay auction there under the video. If the video does not get deleted and the account is not suspended, then it's likely you will get the same results when the link and video are posted on your main Youtube account.

    Basically, you tube is clamping down more. I think you can use vimeo pro version.
