How do I load my videos onto YouTube?

- Then you need to upload a video. We have added some screen prints below as a guide to help with the upload:
- File size: whilst YouTube will allow you to upload videos up to 100MB in size and 10 minutes in duration, we suggest using your video
computer software to reduce the file size to less than 10MB to facilitate easy viewing.
- Title: We suggest adding the name of the loge in the title e.g. 'Lizards Fighting at Idube Game Lodge'
- Tags: These are key words which help people with similar interest to find your video - we suggest having the name of the lodge as
one of your tag words
- Video Category: We suggest using 'Travel & Events', but you may want to use 'Pets and Animals'

- Map Video: The benefit of adding this is that your YouTube video will also appear on Google Earth and people can watch you video
from Google Earth if they are looking at that area of the globe.
