Using a third-party hosts: YouTube

- Using videos from YouTube…on Facebook is pretty straightforward.…But the process has been severely curtailed in recent years…as competition has picked up between Facebook and Google.…Let me show you how it works.…You can access the Creator Studio…to see all of the videos that you've uploaded.…Choose Video Manager to see your entire library.…If there's a video that you want to share,…you can click on it to view it.…Then, click the Share button in the upper right corner.…

You'll see a button to take you right to Facebook.…This will trigger a post.…And click Post to Facebook.…Now, if you visit your Facebook page,…you'll see what it looks like.…You'll notice that Facebook no longer…embeds the YouTube video directly into the post.…The same holds true if you just copy the link to the video.…In this case, if you try to add it to a post,…what it used to do was turn this into an embedded video…but now it just simply pulls a thumbnail…and lists some additional information about it.…

So in any case, as you can see,…it's not nearly as useful as it once was.…
