Paano Maglagay ng Links sa YouTube About Page (Safe + Effective Guide)

 

Kung gusto mong i-direct ang viewers sa website, Facebook page, Shopee/Lazada store, o ibang socials mo, pinakamalinis at pinaka-safe na paraan ay ilagay ang links sa YouTube channel profile links (lumalabas sa channel page / About).

Sa guide na ’to, matututunan mo:

• Paano mag-add at mag-edit ng links sa YouTube About/Profile

• Ilang links ang puwede

• Paano ayusin para mas “effective” (CTR-friendly)

• Common issues at mabilis na fixes

Ano ang YouTube “Channel Profile Links”

Ito yung official links na makikita sa channel page mo (kasama ng description / profile area). Good news: puwede kang maglagay ng hanggang 14 links. Ang unang link mo ang pinaka-prominent (madalas near subscribe area), tapos yung iba lalabas kapag “see more / more links.”

---

Requirements bago maglagay ng links

• Dapat naka-sign in ka sa channel mo

• Pinaka-recommended gawin sa YouTube Studio (desktop/web) para kumpleto ang options (mas stable kaysa puro mobile tap)

• Siguraduhin na ang ilalagay mong links ay compliant sa YouTube policies (iwas scam/malware/phishing)

---

Step-by-step: Magdagdag ng Links sa YouTube About/Profile (Desktop)

Ito ang pinaka-straightforward na method as of ngayon gamit ang YouTube Studio.

1. Buksan ang YouTube Studio

   • Pumunta sa studio.youtube.com at mag-sign in.

2. Sa left menu, i-click Customization.

3. Pumunta sa tab na Profile (sa ibang accounts, dito rin ina-update ang channel info/branding).

4. Hanapin ang section na Links.

5. I-click Add link (o “+ Add link”), then ilagay:

   • Title (hal. “Website”, “Facebook”, “Shop”)

   • URL (dapat complete, usually https://...)

6. I-click ang PUBLISH para ma-save.

Screenshot placeholders (optional sa blog):

• [Screenshot: YouTube Studio → Customization → Profile tab]

• [Screenshot: Links section → Add link]

• [Screenshot: Publish button]

✅ Tip: Ayusin ang order ng links. Yung 1st link ang madalas pinaka-kita, so ilagay mo doon ang pinaka-important (hal. website/store/booking).

---

Best Practices para Safe + Effective

1) Unahin ang “main goal” link sa #1

Examples:

• Creator portfolio / website

• Shop page (official store)

• Freebie/lead magnet page

• Booking page

Dahil yung first link ang pinaka-prominent.

2) Gumamit ng clear, human titles (hindi spammy)

Instead na:

• “CLICK HERE!!! FREE!!!”
  Gawin:

• “Website”

• “Facebook Page”

• “Shop (Shopee)”

• “Newsletter”

3) Iwasan ang sketchy redirects / suspicious shorteners

Shorteners at multiple redirects minsan nakaka-trigger ng distrust sa viewers. Mas okay ang direct URL (clean + branded).

4) Ensure policy-compliant ang destination

Huwag mag-link sa pages na may scam, phishing, malware, o content na labag sa Community Guidelines—puwedeng tanggalin ang links/feature at magkaroon ng issues ang channel.

5) Gumamit ng UTM tracking (optional pero effective)

Kung may Google Analytics ka, pwede kang mag-UTM para makita mo kung ilan clicks galing YouTube:

• ?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=channel&utm_campaign=about_links

6) Keep it “minimal but complete”

Kahit 14 ang max, hindi ibig sabihin punuin mo agad. Mas okay ang curated list (5–10) para hindi overwhelming.

---

Common Mistakes / Troubleshooting

1. Hindi lumalabas yung links pagkatapos mag-add

   • Baka nakalimutan i-click ang PUBLISH.

2. Maling URL format

   • Siguraduhin complete: https://domain.com/page

3. Na-flag o hindi clickable ang link

   • Possible policy/security reason. Check YouTube External links policy and avoid suspicious destinations.

4. Hindi mo makita sa mobile pero ok sa desktop (or vice versa)

   • Normal minsan ang UI differences per device/app version.

5. Too many links, ang gulo tignan

   • I-reorder: top 3–5 pinaka-important, rest secondary.

6. Gumagamit ng misleading titles

   • Avoid deceptive/“bait” wording; keep it accurate at transparent.

---

FAQ

1) Ilang links ang puwede sa YouTube About/Profile?
Hanggang 14 links sa channel profile links.

2) Alin ang pinaka-kitang link?
Ang unang link mo ang pinaka-prominent; yung iba makikita kapag “see more / more links.”

3) Kailangan ba YouTube Studio para mag-add ng links?
Recommended at pinaka-consistent ang YouTube Studio (web/desktop) para sa channel profile links setup.

4) Pwede ba affiliate links?
Generally pwede kung legit at hindi scammy, pero dapat hindi deceptive at hindi nagli-link sa harmful/scam destinations. Follow policies.

5) Bakit may ibang link na hindi clickable?
May cases na YouTube limits clickability for safety/policy reasons. Review external links and spam/scam policies.

6) Paano kung gusto ko isang “link in bio” page?
Pwede, pero piliin yung reputable at clean (iwas heavy redirects). Mas okay rin kung may sarili kang landing page.

7) Pwede ba maglagay ng email sa About page?
Oo—may contact info section sa profile management, useful for brand deals/business inquiries.

---

Conclusion

Pinaka-safe at pinaka-effective ang paglalagay ng links via YouTube Studio → Customization → Profile → Links → Publish. Ayusin ang order (priority sa first link), keep titles clean, at siguraduhing policy-compliant ang destinations.

Paano i-set ang “Featured Sections” sa homepage ng YouTube Channel

 

Gusto mo bang mas “organized” at professional tingnan ang homepage ng YouTube channel mo? Dito pumapasok ang Featured Sections—mga rows/blocks sa Home tab na puwedeng magpakita ng playlists, popular uploads, Shorts, live streams, featured channels, at iba pa.

Sa guide na ’to, ituturo ko kung paano i-add, i-edit, i-reorder, at i-optimize ang Featured Sections para mas mabilis mahanap ng viewers ang best content mo.

Ano ang Featured Sections?

---

Requirements bago mag-setup

• Dapat naka-sign in ka sa channel mo (owner/manager access).

• Mas madali gawin sa desktop browser (recommended).

• Puwede rin sa YouTube Studio app pero may ilang options na mas limited (depende sa device/version).

---

Common Mistakes / Troubleshooting

1. Nakalimutang i-click ang Publish — walang magbabago sa public view kapag hindi na-publish.

2. Wala ang “Add section” — siguraduhing nasa YouTube Studio → Customization → Home ka (hindi sa normal channel page).

3. Di nakikita sa mobile — minsan iba ang display order sa mobile; check both desktop & mobile views.

4. Sobrang daming sections — nakakalito; piliin lang yung talagang useful (quality > quantity).

5. Wrong playlist order — ayusin din ang order ng videos sa playlist para maganda ang flow.

6. For you section not behaving as expected — personalized ito per viewer; hindi pare-pareho ang makikita.

---

FAQ

1) Ilan ang maximum Featured Sections sa Home tab?
Hanggang 12 custom sections (plus default/pre-populated sections depende sa channel).

2) Kailangan ba desktop?
Hindi required, pero mas complete ang options sa desktop. Sa Studio app may toggle/manage options lalo na para sa “For you”.

3) Bakit may viewers na iba ang nakikita?
Kung may “For you” section ka, personalized iyon per viewer (based on interests/watch history).

4) Puwede ba i-highlight ang isang playlist?
Yes. Piliin Single playlist or playlist-related section sa ADD section.

5) Puwede ba mag-feature ng ibang channels?
Yes. Add a Channels / Featured channels section sa Home layout.

Usually dahil hindi na-Publish, or caching—try refresh/incognito after publishing.

---

Conclusion

Kapag maayos ang Featured Sections, mas madali mong nagagu-guide ang viewers: “Start here,” “Most popular,” “Series playlists,” at “Latest uploads.” Ayusin mo ang order, piliin ang tamang sections, tapos Publish lagi.

Paano Gumawa ng Playlist (YouTube/Spotify) at Bakit Importante sa SEO

 Kung gumagawa ka ng content (videos, music, tutorials, o podcasts), playlist ang isa sa pinaka-underrated na weapon para dumami ang views at mas mahanap ka sa search.

Hindi lang siya “collection” ng videos/songs—parang mini-website siya na may sariling title, description, at order. Kapag tama ang setup, tumataas ang chance na sunod-sunod panoorin ng tao ang content mo (higher watch time / retention), at mas malinaw sa algorithm kung tungkol saan ka.

Sa guide na ‘to, matututunan mo:

• Paano gumawa ng playlist (YouTube at Spotify)

• Paano i-optimize ang playlist para sa SEO

• Common mistakes + troubleshooting

• FAQ na pang-beginner

Ano ang Playlist at Para Kanino?

Ang playlist ay curated list ng videos/songs na naka-group by topic, series, mood, o goal.

Perfect ito para sa:

• YouTubers na may series (tutorials, vlog series, lessons)

• Music creators / curators

• Podcasters na may episodes per topic

• Bloggers na nag-eembed ng videos (Blogger.com friendly)

[Shortcut Tip:] Treat your playlist like a category page sa blog—dapat clear ang topic at easy sundan.

---

Bakit Importante ang Playlist sa SEO?

1) Mas mataas na Watch Time / Session Time

Kapag naka-autoplay sa playlist, mas likely na manood pa ng next video. Result: better engagement signals.

2) Mas malinaw ang “Topical Authority”

Kapag maraming videos under one topic (hal. “Blogger SEO Tutorial”), mas “gets” ng platform na expert ka sa topic na ‘yon.

3) May sariling Search Surface ang Playlist

Sa YouTube, searchable ang playlists. Meaning: may chance lumabas ang playlist mo sa search results.

4) Better User Experience (UX)

Kapag organized, mas madaling hanapin ng user ang gusto nila → more clicks, more time spent.

5) Internal Linking na Natural

Playlist = built-in “related content” system. Parang internal links sa blog pero video-to-video.

---

Paano Gumawa ng Playlist sa YouTube (Step-by-Step)

Option A: Gumawa habang nanonood ka ng video

1. Buksan ang video mo (o kahit anong video).

2. Click Save (usually under the video).

3. Piliin Create new playlist.

   • Playlist name

   • Visibility: Public / Unlisted / Private

5. Click Create.

2. Sa left menu, click Content > Playlists (or “Playlists” directly).

Playlist SEO Optimization Tips (Title, Description, Order)

1) Gumamit ng Keyword sa Playlist Title

Bad: “My Videos”
Better: “Blogger SEO Tutorials (Beginner to Advanced)”
Best: “Blogger SEO Tutorial Playlist: On-Page, Meta Tags, Speed (2026)”

Rule: ilagay ang main keyword sa unahan kung possible.

2) Sulatan ang Playlist Description (Huwag blank!)

Include:

• 1–2 sentence summary

• Main keyword + related keywords (natural lang)

• What viewers will learn

• Optional CTA: “Subscribe” / “Follow”

Example Description (YouTube):
“Kompletong Blogger SEO tutorial playlist para sa beginners: meta tags, mobile speed, internal linking, at keyword research. Updated guides weekly.”

3) Ayusin ang Order: Beginner → Advanced

Mas effective kung “series” ang flow:

1. Intro / basics

2. Tools setup

3. Core lessons

4. Advanced tips

5. Case studies / examples

4) Gamitin ang Consistent Naming sa Videos

Kung series:

• “Episode 1: …”

• “Part 1: …”

• “Step 1: …”

Nakakatulong sa clicks at clarity.

5) Lagyan ng Playlist sa Homepage / Channel Sections

Sa YouTube:

• Customize channel > add Playlist section
  Mas visible = more plays.

6) Gumawa ng “Topic Clusters”

Instead na isang super-habang playlist, gumawa ng clusters:

• “Blogger SEO Basics”

• “Blogger Templates & Speed”

• “Monetization Tutorials”
  Parang blog categories.

---

Common Mistakes / Troubleshooting

1. Walang description → missed SEO opportunity.

2. Generic title (e.g., “Tutorials”) → hindi searchable.

3. Halo-halo ang topic → confusing, weaker authority.

4. Maling order → drop-off sa viewers, low retention.

5. Naka-Private kaya di lumalabas sa search → check visibility.

6. Duplicate playlist na pareho topic/title → cannibalization (nag-aagawan sa ranking).

7. Too many videos, no structure → split into smaller playlists.

---

FAQ

1) Mas okay ba ang playlist kaysa tags lang?

Yes. Tags help, pero playlist helps user flow + session time, which is stronger for performance.

2) Ilang videos ang ideal sa isang playlist?

Walang exact, pero for beginners: 5–20 videos per playlist para manageable at focused.

3) Nakaka-SEO ba ang playlist sa Google?

Sometimes. Lalo na kung YouTube playlist ang topic-based at may strong engagement. Pero mas consistent ang impact within YouTube search/suggestions.

4) Pwede ba i-embed ang playlist sa Blogger.com?

Yes. Sa YouTube, click Share > Embed (o playlist embed).
[Screenshot: YouTube Share > Embed]

5) Dapat ba may year sa title?

Optional, pero helpful kung updates ang content (“2026”)—lalo na sa tutorials na nagbabago.

6) Paano kung mixed topics ang channel ko?

Gumamit ng playlists para i-organize by niche. Halimbawa: “Blogger,” “Canva,” “Affiliate,” etc.

7) Pwede bang playlist ang strategy for internal linking?

Yes—playlist acts like internal links: one content leads to the next.

---

Conclusion

Ang playlist ay simple gawin pero malaki ang impact: better organization, higher watch time, at mas malinaw ang topic signals—lahat ‘yan helpful sa SEO at discoverability.

Kung gusto mo, i-comment mo kung YouTube ba o Spotify ang focus mo (o parehong), at anong niche/topic—gagawa ako ng sample playlist titles + description templates na SEO-ready.

Paano gumagana ang YouTube Channel Keywords

Ang channel keywords ay mga salita/phrases na nagde-describe ng overall topic ng channel mo (niche, content themes, audience). Think of it as “labels” para mas ma-categorize ang channel.

Reality check:
Mas malakas pa rin ang impact ng:

• video title + description + video tags

• consistency ng content

• watch time, CTR, audience retention

Pero useful pa rin ang channel keywords para sa clarity at branding ng channel.

---

Step-by-step: Paano maglagay ng Channel Keywords sa YouTube Studio

Step 1: Buksan ang YouTube Studio

1. Punta sa YouTube

2. Click profile icon (upper right)

3. Piliin YouTube Studio

[Screenshot: YouTube profile menu → YouTube Studio]

Step 2: Pumunta sa Settings

1. Sa left sidebar, scroll pababa

Step 3: Open “Channel” settings

1. Sa pop-up, piliin Channel

2. Hanapin ang Keywords field

[Screenshot: Settings window → Channel → Keywords field]

Step 4: Ilagay ang channel keywords

1. Sa Keywords box, i-type ang keywords mo

2. Use commas para hiwalay:
   budget travel, travel tips philippines, diy itinerary, backpacking

3. Click Save

✅ Done!

---

Paano pumili ng tamang channel keywords (with examples)

1) Start sa core niche mo

Tanungin ang sarili:

• Anong main topic ko? (1–2)

• Anong sub-topics ko? (3–6)

• Anong audience/location? (optional)

2) Gamitin ang “YouTube search suggestions”

Sa YouTube search bar, i-type ang topic mo at tingnan ang lumalabas na suggestions. ’Yun ang real terms na sine-search ng tao.

Example (Cooking channel - Pinoy):

• pinoy recipes

• ulam ideas

• easy filipino food

• budget ulam

• air fryer recipes

• lutong bahay

Example (Gaming - Mobile):

• mlbb tips

• mobile legends guide

• rank push tips

• meta heroes

• philippines gaming

Example (Tutorials/Tech):

• how to

• android tips

• phone tutorial

• app reviews

• tagalog tech tutorial

---

Best practices: Ilang keywords at anong format

Recommended format

• Mix of short + long phrases

• Include:

  • niche (fitness, skincare)

  • content type (tutorial, review, tips)

  • audience/location (Tagalog, Philippines) kung relevant

Ilang keywords ang ideal?

Practical rule:

• 10–25 phrases na super relevant

• Avoid sobrang dami na unrelated (spammy)

Sample channel keyword set (Taglish vlogger - “Digital Marketing”)

digital marketing, social media marketing, facebook ads tutorial, content strategy, seo basics, online business philippines, freelancing tips, marketing for beginners, tagalog tutorial, youtube growth tips

---

Common Mistakes / Troubleshooting

1. Sobrang broad (e.g., “fun”, “videos”, “life”) → walang niche signal.

2. Unrelated keywords para lang makahakot views (e.g., kpop keywords sa cooking channel) → pwedeng maka-confuse ng algorithm/audience.

3. Keyword stuffing (sobrang haba, paulit-ulit) → low quality signal.

4. Hindi updated habang nag-iiba na ang content direction → i-review every 2–3 months.

5. Umaasang channel keywords lang ang magpaparank → kailangan pa rin strong titles/descriptions/thumbnails.

   (Usually naka-setup na ang 2560×1440.)

Option A (Easy): Gumamit ng rectangle guide

1. Add a shape (rectangle)

2. Set size to 1546×423

3. Center it

4. Lower opacity to 10–20% para guide lang

5. I-lock mo (Lock icon) para di gumalaw

Option B: Gumamit ng ready-made safe area overlay (kung meron sa Elements)

[Screenshot: Safe area rectangle guide]

Step 3: Piliin ang layout (simple pero pro)

Recommended structure:

• Left: Logo/face icon

• Center: Channel name + tagline

• Right: Upload schedule / niche keywords

Example text:

• “Juan Tech Tips”

• “Tutorials • Reviews • Android Hacks”

• “New videos every Wed & Sat”

Step 4: Fonts + colors (brand consistency)

• Gumamit ng 2 fonts max (1 for title, 1 for subtitle)

• Piliin 2–3 brand colors

• Iwasan ang sobrang daming elements

Step 5: Add background na hindi distracting

Options:

• Solid color + subtle gradient

• Blurred photo

• Pattern na low contrast

Tip: Kung busy ang background, lagyan ng semi-transparent overlay (rectangle + 30–50% opacity).

Step 6: Export

1. Share/Download

2. PNG (recommended)

3. Size: Default (highest)

---

Step-by-Step: Profile Picture sa Canva (Free)

Step 1: Create design

1. Canva → Create a design → Custom size: 800×800

2. Add background (solid/gradient)

Step 2: Ilagay ang main subject

Options:

• Face photo (pinaka-effective)

• Logo / initials (kung brand channel)

Pro tip: Maglagay ng circle outline o “ring” para mas standout sa small size.

Step 3: Safe framing (dahil circle crop)

• I-center ang face/logo

• Leave breathing room sa edges (10–15% margin)

[Screenshot: Safe framing guide]

Step 4: Export

• PNG

• Kung may logo na transparent, use transparent background (depende sa Canva free limitations; kung wala, solid background na lang)

---

Alternative Method: Photopea (Libre, parang Photoshop)

Step 1: Set canvas size

1. Open Photopea

2. File → New

3. Set:

Best use: Kung may PSD template ka o gusto mo mas advanced effects (shadows, blend modes, etc.)

---

Branding Tips (Para Mukhang Pro)

1) One message lang

Huwag ilagay lahat ng info. Sa banner, pinaka-important:

• Channel name

• Niche/topic

• Optional schedule

2) Contrast is king

Kung di readable sa phone, bagsak ang banner.
Rule: Dark text on light bg or light text on dark bg.

3) Consistent style across banner + profile

Same colors, same font vibe, same “feel.”

4) Test sa phone

I-preview mo muna:

• Zoom out to 25% sa Canva

• Or i-save then view sa phone gallery

---

Common Mistakes / Troubleshooting

1. Text nasa labas ng safe area
   ✅ Ayusin: ilagay lahat ng important text sa 1546×423 center.

2. Sobrang liit ng font
   ✅ Gumamit ng bold fonts, mas malaking title, less words.

3. Busy background, di mabasa ang text
   ✅ Add overlay (black/white rectangle) + opacity 30–50%.

4. Profile pic cut-off sa circle crop
   ✅ I-center at mag-leave ng margin sa edges.

5. Blurry export
   ✅ Export as PNG; iwasan ang multiple re-uploads/re-saves.

6. Too many fonts/colors
   ✅ 2 fonts max, 2–3 colors max.
