Hey @Texas_Miler, you should try linktw.in for when you post YouTube links on IG stories, that way it'll open directly in the app and it's easier for people to like/comment since they're signed in. It's been super useful for me!
Try linktw.in: put your YouTube link in. It makes your YouTube link open DIRECTLY into the YouTube app instead of in video purgatory. @seancannell #SMMW23
Para eso: NUNCA pongas tus Links. Si haces eso, tu video se vera en otro reproductor o una pagina dentro de otra App. Mejor usa la pagina linktw.in Ahi pondras el link de tu video y te generara un nuevo enlace que SI abrira tu video dentro de la App de YT.
Let's stop sharing links THE WRONG WAY because it's costing you views and engagement. Instead, copy the link to your video and paste it to this website called LinkTwin. From there, copy the link generated and share it across all your social channels.
Quick life hack: Use linktw.in to create a link that when shared on Instagram on mobile opens the video in the YT app, not in a web browser. This allows people to interact with your video as opposed to just watching and clicking off.
Post your video links in the comments with linktw.in So it opens up in app (lil nugget for you)
If you send traffic between apps on mobile, the experience is terrible and often it opens in browser instead of the app on your phone. This tool solves that issue nicely.
My man! Try LinkTwin if you haven't already, sends people straight to the app. Not affiliated, just an awesome tool.
Hola! Te recomiendo uses esta web linktw.in para postear los links de Youtube y de esta manera al dar click abrira directamente en la app y no en el navegador o dentro de twitter. Aumentara tu engagement y eliminas friccion.
This is why I share my YouTube video either with linktwin, so it opens the YouTube App on their phone.
Awesome tool for Instagram creators! IG story links don't open in dedicated apps, like YouTube. Use linktw.in to level-up your links, sending the audience straight to your content on their specific apps, rather than a login-prompt within the IG browser!
Tool Alert: You're sharing your YouTube links the wrong way on social! Use LinkTwin so your shared links open inside the YouTube app and increase your chances of getting more subscribers.

Use this when posting the YouTube link on your stories, it redirects you to the app and not to the mobile site where half the people aren't even logged in.
