The Best from the Nonprofit Technology Community

I recently put together a webinar about how nonprofits can use YouTube effectively. When YouTube first started, all of 4 years ago, the quality of the video was bad, the audience wasn’t so huge and messages about changing the world just seemed totally out of place amid the poor amateur video that was appearing on the site. Right now.
A few months ago YouTube announced that organizations that are in the YouTube Nonprofit Program would be able to use the overlay advertising feature to create donation links. In addition to only appearing in a very limited way on the video, it only works on YouTube and not when you embed the video on other sites. Best, Ramya.

YouTube is set to publicly launch the “Call-To-Action Overlay&# feature.  The Call-To-Action Overlay means users will be prompting viewers to click away from YouTube (not exactly the action a platform like YouTube is after). You have to be a paying YouTube advertiser, but do not have to pay extra for the Overlays.
You’ve spent critical resources (staff time and money) creating videos for what you hope will be a lively YouTube channel. You’ve uploaded a healthy number of engaging videos, and have even customized your YouTube theme. Tags: Youtube Tips But there’s a problem. Check your titles and tags. Likes and Retweets.
Good news for nonprofits: the YouTube for Nonprofits program is now open to qualified organizations in Canada and Australia, as well as the US and UK! And while we're talking YouTube, here are a few relatively new features there that you may have missed.( read more ).
