Just recently, a very high profile online marketer had her Youtube account which contained over 600 videos, terminated without any warnings whatsoever.
She had been hacked!
Fortunately, after much protest and email correspondence back and forth, she was able to prove that the videos which violated Youtube terms were not hers and so her account was reinstated. Her fan base also kicked in appealing Youtube to reinstate her.
But not everyone is at this level of marketing and if such a situation can happen to a seasoned marketer, then you also can be at risk.
For whatever reason, Youtube has the power and you must do everything you can to be a step ahead or at least be prepared for any contingency.
Once in your settings, go to “Emails” and make sure the following are picked:
************************************************************
Send me the YouTube wrap-up, a summary of the latest activity on my subscriptions: ** Once a day
Also send me emails when:
**A YouTube Live Event is starting soon
**I subscribe to new channels
**New uploads: Get emailed right when your favorite channels upload new videos.
Edit settings:
Email settings for notifications about comments on your videos or your channel, as well as replies to your comments can be changed by visiting Google+ notification settings.
Send me emails when:
**Someone subscribes to my channel
**Someone leaves a comment on my private video or responds to my comments on a private video
**I receive a private message
**My video upload is complete
**Community actions are updated or require my attention
******************************************************************************
In this case, I have IFTTT connected to my Youtube account and if any videos or anything at all changes, IFTTT will email me instantly.
Having several safeguards in place is only smart.
You need to protect your online property. Doing so shows you care about your brand, your content and your user’s experience with your content.
Anything less can leave you vulnerable to hackers.
If you have any problems implementing these strategies, shoot me an email and let’s see if we can take your marketing to the next level.
