Add Clickable Website Link to Your YouTube Video
Drive traffic to your site with an engaging call-to-action overlay.
Why Add Clickable Links to Your Videos?
YouTube videos are an excellent way to promote products and services. Adding a clickable link within the video can help redirect viewers to your website, boosting traffic and conversions. While YouTube itself does not allow embedding external links directly into videos, we can create a workaround by overlaying a custom clickable element on the embedded video.
Step-by-Step Guide
1. Embed Your YouTube Video
Use the standard YouTube embed code to add the video to your website.
2. Add an Overlay for the Clickable Link
Create a custom overlay positioned above the video to display your link as a button or message.
Example Code:
How It Works
The overlay is styled to sit on top of the video. It includes a clear call-to-action with a clickable link that redirects users to your website. This method ensures your link is always visible, encouraging more interactions.
Benefits of This Approach
- Customizable: Style the overlay to match your brand's theme.
- Non-Intrusive: Does not interfere with the video playback experience.
- Effective: Encourages users to take action while watching your content.
