In this video we’re going to teach you how to add a YouTube end screens, and if you have
a TubeBuddy pro or higher license, how you can speed up that process!
[Tips & Tricks]
Hello TubeBuddies! Adding end screens is a great way to keep people watching more of
your content, earning you more views. Adding YouTube end screens is easy, and with TubeBuddy
pro and higher licenses you can save templates to make this process go even faster. TubeBuddy
is absolutely FREE to use, but if you would like to try the paid versions for free, check
out that video by clicking the card on screen now. Let’s head over to YouTube.
From the TubeBuddy drop down menu click on the Videos section, to be brought over to
the My Videos Page. Once on the my videos page, hover over the video, or live stream
replay you would like to add an endscreen to. We’re going to choose our recent video
here, that doesn’t have an endscreen.
Once you’re hovering over the video you want to edit an endscreen onto click on this
pencil icon here to head to this video’s details page. Under your YouTube video on
the right hand side you’ll see the “endscreen edit section” click on this pencil icon
to start adding Endscreens.
In order to add Video endscreens to your YouTube videos, the videos must be at least 25 seconds
long. YouTube end screens can be added to the last 5 to 20 seconds of a video. You can
use Endscreens to recommend your other videos, or suggest a playlist so they can binge watch
and get the help or entertainment they want, you can even encourage those viewers to subscribe
to your channel, and much more! (For this effect we’ll do Picture in picture here:

If you’ve never added an endscreen before you’ll see these default templates from
YouTube. This is a great starting point to build from. You can Import endscreen elements
from your latest video here, or from another video here. This is helpful if you’ve already
added an endscreen to your videos and want to re- add them here. However, if you’re
adding endscreens for the first time click on the Blue + elements here, the blue plus
here, or you can actually click on the endscreen itself here and when you see a plus left click
to add an end screen element.
You can add a Video, Playlist, Subscribe Call out, Link to a channel, or just include a
website link. For our endscreen we’re going to add a link to a video, so click on Video.
You can add an endscreen video element, and your options are the most recent upload, an
upload that is best for the viewer, or you can choose a specific video. We’re going
to select the “Best for Viewer” option.
Once you’ve made a selection. You’ll notice your video in this section over here. You
can drag and drop the video around the safe margin here, and even change the videos size.
Once you’re happy with the size and location of the video, you can add more elements! We’re
going to quickly add an install element by click on the Endscreen area here, selecting
link if this is the first time you’re clicking here you’ll see this pop up (Show pop up
stacy: http://prntscr.com/sxj8ux) and accept the terms.
We’ll make our link an install a link for TubeBuddy, which if you haven’t installed

Now that you’ve added your endscreen, if your endscreen isn’t 20 seconds like ours
you can change the duration of your endscreen elements down here. Under that we can save
this video as an end screen template if you have a pro or higher version, by clicking
the “ Set this Video as an End Screen Template.”
Above me we at TubeBuddy will ask you what do you want to name this template. Let’s
call this “TubeBuddy Best For Viewer Endscreen Template.”
Now everytime we upload a new video we can use this TubeBuddy end screen template and
save so much time because we don’t have to recreate the template every time we upload
a new piece of content. You also can have more than one end screen template. This is
useful if you have multiple series on your channel and each series has its own unique
end screen graphic and template. If you collaborate a lot like we do here at TubeBuddy, each collaborator
could have their own unique end screen and template.
Here is how you can apply a template quickly to your older videos. In this collaboration
video with Roberto Blake, we wanted to push to his past videos he’s done with us at
TubeBuddy, so we have an endscreen template with Roberto. Hover over the video you want
to select, and click on this TubeBuddy Icon. Under Endscreens click “apply template.”
At the top here we’ll select our template with Roberto. Then you can verify the cards
here are correct, for our example, they are. Let’s say you already have endscreens on
this video you can remove the end screen by clicking here, and then you can apply selected
endscreens. Once applied you’ll get a confirmation it’s complete. If you head back to this
video’s endscreen page you’ll see the endscreen template was successfully applied!
Setting up these end screen templates can save you minutes to hours depending on how
many videos you have. If you have a star or higher versions of TubeBuddy you can use that
end screen template to bulk update all of your videos with that endscreen. That’s
just an amazing use of these templates and another addition to TubeBuddy!
