YouTube is the most popular service for watching video content in the world. Millions of people watch your videos every day or earn money by making videos for this platform. It’s a huge platform that makes a lot of money and is constantly improving. With the advent of social media, short videos, like the TikTok app or Instagram stories, for example, have been gaining popularity around the world. YouTube is also keeping up with the trends. Not so long ago they introduced a new feature called YouTube Short Stories.

What is YouTube Short Stories

YouTube Shorts lets you shoot short videos – up to 15 or 60 seconds long – on your mobile device and publish them immediately to your channel. You could make short videos before, but now you have more options to create them. You can shoot segments and merge them into a single video, record a video with music from your YouTube music library, change the recording speed, or add video openers from your gallery and text to your videos. Shorts are displayed on the YouTube home page, in “Subscriptions,” and in alerts. To make short videos appear in different sections of the platform, users can add the #Shorts hashtag to the title or description of the video.
