#How to make your own youtube channel on in 2017 update#
In 2017, we rolled out an update to the system that generates new YouTube Unlisted links, which included security enhancements that make the links for your Unlisted videos even harder for someone to discover if you haven’t shared the link with them. Unlisted videos won’t appear to others who visit the "Videos" tab of your channel page and shouldn't show up in YouTube's search results unless someone adds an Unlisted video to a Public playlist. Unlisted content uploaded on or after Januwas unaffected by this change.Īs a reminder, Unlisted videos and playlists can be seen and shared by anyone with the link. This was part of a security update to Unlisted videos uploaded before January 1, 2017. Starting July 23, 2021, older Unlisted videos were made Private unless you opted out from this change.
