Small detail. If you put an unlisted video in a playlist, the youtubers who have subscribed to that playlist will be notified and will have access to watch that specific video, EVEN if it's unlisted.

Thanks alot because I've had my videos on public for a while now

[MollyAnnLuna]

I’m going to experiment with uploading my to-be-published videos days earlier than their publish date to see if giving the algorithm time to transcribe them help increased reach. Curious to know more about what results you’ve experienced.

Finally someone explains it in a really simple and clear way. Thanks.

I wanted to ask: on YouTube it says, next to a video that is unlisted, like this: "...unless someone adds it to a playlist visible to everyone" - is there a way around this? So no one will share my video or the link without permission?

[GODWINKAPIHYATV]

I'm thinking to unlisted some of my videos because they are outside my current niche. It's really affecting my videos go viral

[MollyAnnLuna]

Two questions for you, Nate. 1. Do you think unlisting old videos on your channel that are no longer relevant or are poor quality compared to your most recent work will help the algorithm link your content with an ideal audience? 2. Can you have too many unlisted videos on your channel?

[MattyDCCollins]

how does an unlisted video affect the youtube partner program? can I still get the view hours counted towards the 4000?

So I put a vid on unlisted and I didn't send the link to anyone but ppl still viewed it, does anyone know how to fix this?

[paulnfamily]

Thanks so much, now I understand the different of the two. I thinks better to make videos unlisted rather than private.. so it will be easy to share to somebody.. Anyway, the reason why I started youtube is that I want share videos

[wekiwiofficial]

Great video! Hello from New Zealand. Quick question - do you know why it is possible that your (public) videos are appearing as unlisted in different (European) country? it just happened to me.. cant get straight answer from YT.

[teresahernandez]

So both private and unlisted are not public? correct?

[Liam_]

May I ask u a question your video was very very helpful

[WanderingSisMel]

Just what I needed to know sir, thank you ❤

[jngfitness]

My question is for a video that didn't perform as expected and instead you want to save it as private... Would the amount of viewed time still be collected and added to your total viewed hours by YouTube?

Hello Nate, Could I embed an unlisted Youtube video?

I am wanting to share class instructions with my class but not publicly.

Could it be that if embedded the link cannot be shared?

[RidersUnited]

Does unlisted video still count for YouTube algorithm as publishing content?

What Will happen if i unlist my old video

[barrylevinsky]

Nate, I am the webmaster of my high school class's (1964) Website. We would like to place videos, some taken at prior reunions, some to be taken in September (our next reunion). Our host won't let us upload videos to our site. My research tells me I can link to a Website where I put the video. YouTube seems to be the logical place for it. Creating an Unlisted account seems the best solution. The video would be reached via a link on our site. There is no economic component to what we are doing. Would a video in an unlisted account generate any kind of advertising? Would the video generate suggested videos to look at. If yes, is there a way around that? I would create the account. Thanks in advance for any response.

@Nate Woodbury thanks 🙏 for this. I was concerned posting to Unlisted first was affected my views/ notifications

[QanaDiys]

Hi Nate. I put my short on unlisted and started to edit in my description, tags ... Then i saw 2 views recorded with one from feed and playlist. Does this mean the Algorithm has got my short data already?
