Hi, my name is Herman Drost. If you want to grow your audience on YouTube and generate
traffic, leads and sales on autopilot, hit the subscribe button and click the bell notification
icon so you'll be notified whenever I upload new videos.
How do you make a private playlist on YouTube of saved videos from other people's channels
so you can watch them later? Go to YouTube home screen, select the video that you want
to put into a private playlist. I'm going to select this video. If you hover at the
top here, I can put it in the watch later or you can add it to a queue. If I click Add
to queue, then it plays in a mini player down the bottom here. Click x. Click Close Player.
If I click Watch later then it puts it into a playlist that's called watch later. Watch
later is a private playlist for videos you want to watch later. You can identify a private
playlist with the lock symbol next to it. Alternatively, click these three dots; Add
to queue, Save to watch later, Save to playlist, Not interested, Don't recommend channel, so
it doesn't serve these kind of videos to my channel, or Report. If I click Save to Watch
later, and if I click Save to Watch later playlist over here, then I can see that the
video is being added here. I can also shuffle this around to the top,
to the bottom, wherever I like. I can also sort the different videos. If I click the
three dots, I can add it to a queue again and it plays a mini player down the bottom.
Click Close Player. I can save to a different playlist so I can
save to a playlist I already have on my channel, or I can create a new playlist. You see that
the watch later playlist is already being created and it's private. I can also remove
this video from the watch later playlist. I can move to the top or move to the bottom.
If I click on the three dots here, I can remove all the watched videos from the watch later
playlist. How do I make a private playlist of my own
videos on YouTube? Log onto YouTube channel, click on YouTube Studio, click on Videos,
select the video or videos you want to add to a private playlist. Check the box one,
two, three. Click Add to playlist so I can put them in an existing playlist, but I want
to add them to a new playlist that's private. So click New Playlist, add a title "private
playlist." Visibility is going to be private. Click Create. Here's my private playlist at
the top of my playlist list. Click Save. Now I've got these three videos that are saved
to my private playlist. If I click on Playlists over here on the left-hand column, you can
see that I've created this private playlist with these three videos on it. As you can
see, I've got a lock under the title so I click on private playlist. I can just grab
the URL for myself or share it with others. I can also edit the title and edit the description.
I can also shuffle the videos in the playlist, remove the videos from the private playlist,
and I can set the videos as playlist thumbnail. Keep in mind that if you remove videos from
the playlist, they're not going to be removed from your channel.
How do you change a public playlist you've already created on YouTube to a private playlist?
Go to your view all playlist page at youtube.com/view_all_playlists. Alternatively, you can just click on YouTube
studio and click on Playlists. Select the playlist that you want to make private. I'm
going to select this one. Click Private, so only you can view it. This means you can select
any public playlists you've already created and make it private.
How do I keep all my saved playlists private? Go to your all playlist page at youtube.com/view_all_playlists.
You need to have the TubeBuddy extension installed to make multiple playlists private. Once you
have it installed, you'll see this TubeBuddy icon here with Action next to it. I'll place
a link to TubeBuddy in the description below this video.
I can select multiple playlists to make private. I'll select those three. Click the drop down.
Next to Playlist privacy, I can select Set to Private. Alternatively, I can change the
order and I can remove the videos. I can remove private videos, unlisted videos, videos that
aren't mine and duplicate videos. Just keep in mind that if you make all the playlists
on your channel private, nobody else will be able to watch them.
How do I share a YouTube playlist privately with someone else? Go to your all playlist
page. Select the playlist that you want to make private. Click Edit Playlist. Change
it from Public to Unlisted with anyone with a link can view it. Just copy the URL in your
browser and share it with anyone privately. Just keep in mind that anyone who has a link
will be able to share it with anyone else so it's not entirely private. Here's what
happened when I shared a private playlist link in my Facebook group. This confirms that
videos on a private playlist can only be watched by you.
Let me ask you a question, what do you currently use playlists for? Post your answer in the
comments below. I'd love to read them, and I'm sure others would to. What are some of
the uses for creating a private playlist? Number one, save videos from other people's
channels. Number two, save videos from your own channel you want to watch later. Number
three, store videos on YouTube for free. Just keep in mind that the videos on your
private playlist can only be watched by you unless you change the privacy setting to unlisted
or public. Did you ever wonder why YouTube playlists are not working? Watch the next
