How do I copy a YouTube video, Shorts, live or channel link?

YouTube services on SNSSupporter use four kinds of links: a video link, a Shorts link, a live stream link and a channel link. Views, likes, comments, shares and watch hours take a video link; subscribers take the channel link. This guide shows how to copy each one on a phone and a computer.

  1. 1Copy a video link on a phoneOpen the video in the YouTube app, tap Share under the player, then tap Copy link. The app copies a short youtu.be link, which works for video services.
  2. 2Copy a video link on a computerOpen the video on youtube.com and copy the address from the browser bar. It looks like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v= followed by an 11-character video ID.
  3. 3Copy a Shorts linkOpen the Short, tap Share, then Copy link. On a computer, copy the address, which contains /shorts/ followed by the video ID.
  4. 4Copy a live stream linkWhile you are live, open the stream page and use Share, then Copy link, or copy the address that contains /live/ or watch?v=.
  5. 5Copy the channel linkOn a phone, open your channel, tap the three dots or Share, then Copy link. On a computer, open your channel page and copy the address with your @handle.
  6. 6Pick the matching serviceUse Video items for regular uploads, Shorts items for /shorts/ links, live items while streaming, and subscribers with the channel link.

Which YouTube link goes with which service?

The service name tells you the link it needs. Views, likes, comments, shares and watch hours work on one video, so they take a video or Shorts link. Subscribers work on the whole channel, so they take the channel link.

Live stream items take the link of a stream that is live when you order. Live Viewers (#1104 to #1109) join within 5 minutes and stay for the time you picked, from 15 minutes to 12 hours.

Why do Shorts and long videos have separate items?

YouTube counts views on Shorts and on long videos in separate places, so SNSSupporter keeps separate items for each. Use YouTube Views, Shorts (#1096) at $0.0004983 each for a Shorts link, and YouTube Views, Video (#1095) at the same price for a regular video.

The easiest way to tell them apart is the link. A link with /shorts/ is a Short; a link with watch?v= or youtu.be is a regular video. Ordering the matching item keeps delivery on the counter you expect.

Bulk items follow the same rule: Shorts Bulk (#1098) starts at 10,000 views and Video Bulk (#1097) at 20,000 views, at $0.000436 and $0.0005349 each.

How do I find my channel link and @handle?

Every channel has a handle that starts with @, shown under the channel name. The channel link is https://www.youtube.com/@ followed by that handle, for example https://www.youtube.com/@yourchannel.

Older channels also have a channel ID link that starts with /channel/UC. Both forms point at the same channel and both work for subscribers.

Keep the handle unchanged until a subscribers order shows Completed. Subscribers include a 30-day refill that uses the same channel link, so a stable handle keeps refills simple.

What should the video settings be before ordering?

Set the video to Public. Unlisted, private and scheduled videos cannot receive views, likes or comments from the order.

For watch hours, the video must be 60 minutes or longer, and no other view order should run on it at the same time. Long podcasts, full streams saved as videos and long tutorials fit well.

For comments, keep comments turned on for the video and leave the default comment settings, so new comments appear right away. For likes, keep the like count visible.

How do I check a YouTube link before ordering?

Open the link in a private browser window while signed out. If the video plays with its title and view count, it is public and the link is right. If YouTube shows Video unavailable or asks you to sign in, change the video to Public first.

For a channel link, the page should open on your channel's home tab with the @handle and subscriber count. For a live link, the player should show the red LIVE label at the moment you order.

When you run orders for several videos, copy each link into a note with the video title. The Orders page lists the link of every order, which makes it simple to match views, likes and comments to each upload later.

Questions

Yes. The youtu.be link copied from the app works for video services such as views, likes, comments and shares.
