New! Move your YouTube channel to a different Google+ Profile or Page

Is your YouTube channel connected to the wrong Google+ identity? Now you can move your channel. The only requirement is that you are signed in as the owner of both your current channel’s Google+ Page or Profile and the destination Google+ Page.

To start the process, open your YouTube channel’s advanced settings (http://www.youtube.com/account_advanced) on a desktop computer and click “Move channel to a different Google+ Profile or Page*

What will be transferred along with your YouTube channel:
> uploaded videos
> playlists, favorites and likes
> subscriptions
> subscribers
> legacy username (e.g. http://www.youtube.com/user/peggyktc)

What **will NOT* be transferred along with your YouTube channel:*
> custom URL set after November 2014 (e.g. http://www.youtube.com/c/PeggyKTC)
> channel name and profile photo/channel icon
> comments posted after November 2013
> sent and received private messages
> automated filter community settings

Transfer your channel from one Google+ Profile to a different Google+ Profile

Get a custom URL for your YouTube channel (and Google+)

Confused by the new YouTube and Google+ custom URLs? I've put together answers to the most common questions..

Here's an overview - see the article for all the details:

> What are the eligibility requirements for a custom URL?

YouTube eligibility:
 support.google.com/youtube/answer/2657968
 
Google+ Profile eligibility:
 support.google.com/plus/answer/2676340

Google+ Page eligibility:  support.google.com/business/answer/6068603

> How do I find the custom URL offer?

There is no way to request a custom URL. To see whether you've been offered a custom URL, check your email notifications, the Links box on Google+ Page or Profile's "About" tab or your YouTube notifications page (www.youtube.com/notifications).  

> How do I claim the custom URL?

Click "Get URL" or "Get yours now" on the notification..

> What can I do if I don’t like the offered custom URL or need to add a suffix?

Once the URL is set it can't be changed, so don't accept a custom URL you don't want!   If you don't want the offered URL you can wait for a possible new offer,  make sure your Google+, YouTube and website domain accurately reflect your identity, and send feedback to Google+ and YouTube.

> How can I change the custom URL once it's set?

 You can change capitalization, diacritics and accents on the letters of your custom URL by clicking "Edit" at the bottom of the Links box on your Google+ About tab, then editing your URL. Those are the only changes that can be made.

> If I add a new custom URL will the old custom URL for my YouTube channel still work?

Yes, your old /user/ custom URL will continue to work

> Why doesn’t my new YouTube channel custom URL display in the address bar?

I don't know why, exactly, but that's the case for everyone: when you navigate around YouTube your new custom URL may not display in your browser's address bar. It's not a bug  and it doesn't mean your custom URL is not set.

> Why hasn't my YouTube channel or Google+ Page been offered a custom URL?!

Make sure your YouTube channel or the Google+ Page or Profile it's connected to is eligible for a custom URL and doesn't already have a custom URL set. 

If your channel just became eligible, it's likely just a matter of waiting for an offer.

Read the whole article for all the details, step-by-step instructions, and screenshots

YouTube AutoPlay - coming to a screen near you!
As Facebook seems to really push how many video views they are causing with videos uploaded to FB (due to autoplay), YouTube has decided to play that same game. This post speaks to how Marketers can possibly make their 'other videos' tag-team in the new auto-play world.

Greg Jarboe writes up some good advice re. how adjusting your Meta Data (read Titles, Descriptions & Tags) can possibly influence which videos are chosen as "related" and thereby have a better chance at joining the Autoplay feature.

Those of us that have been poking at YouTube for a while were aware of these ideas in order to try to get our videos 'related' to each other, but now there is another reason to apply these tactics. This post does a great job explaining what to try.

Another post to check out on the YouTube Autoplay changes is from the same SEM Post website: http://goo.gl/H5QOcF

YouTube Copyright strikes and other related issues
This link below is to the official YouTube help page where you can read up on some of the results of strikes and Content ID Matches on your account.

https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/2797387

This is an area that can cause quite a bit of problems. Note how you may loose some of the long list of features if your account is not in "good standing". This is why I take a very conservative approach to what I show in my live Hangouts On Air.
