Share a YouTube Playlist on YouTube

Last updated on January 23rd, 2024 at 02:18 am

If you’ve been watching YouTube videos often, you would know the benefit of playlists.

Playlists group videos on a theme or topic from different channels or a single one.

If you’re a channel owner, you would want to organize your videos into playlists.

This would make it easier for your visitors to discover related videos on your channel. Otherwise, they would have to spend time and effort manually searching for other videos on your topic.

Another benefit of playlists is you can share them. This would allow non-visitors or subscribers to discover your videos and your channel.

You may share through email but for quick response, you would want to share them through Whatsapp.
