Hi Everyone,

I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted. Of course last week’s ISP problem put me behind, but I’ve also been very busy catching up and working on a few other things to share with you.

I had been trying for the last few weeks to figure out how to include my “live url” with my YouTube videos. It was getting a little nerve-wracking! So last night while I was speaking on the phone with another one of Alex Jeffreys students, John Bullard, I asked if he knew how to add a “live url” to a YouTube video, and he did! Yeah! I could FINALLY include my site’s url!

Here is how to include your site’s “live url” with your YouTube video:

- Sign in to Your YouTube account.

- Place the cursor on top of your user name and you will see choices in the drop down box.

- Click on “My Videos“. You will see a list of your videos.

- Click on the title of the video that you want to add your site’s url to. This will pull up your video along with the info you had already put in about your video.

- Under where you see your YouTube url and the embed code you’ll see “Edit Video“.

- Click on “Edit Video“. This will pull up your Title, Description, Tags, etc. which you previously filled in.

- Go to the very first line of the description and add your site’s url (for example: http://www.everythinghomebiz.com).

- Go to the second line and put your description. Don’t skip a line, just make sure your url is on the first line by itself with your description starting directly under the url on the 2nd line.

- Go to the bottom of the page and click on “Submit changes”.

Now your site’s “live url” will be included with your YouTube video!

Wow, I’m so happy John knew how to do that! Be sure to visit John Bullard’s blog and check it out!

Take care,

Lori James
