YouTube Question Facebook likes

[Meenu Sharma]

Hi, Why my Facebook likes are not adding likes to my vedios on yiutube please ?

 

[Naheed]

I don't know what the reason. But when videos are properly embedded (using YouTube's embed code)
the Likes, Sharing, and view count. It counts the same way as it happens in YouTube itself. However,
embedding the video in these different manners affects the count.

Thanks allot. Will see this. I think it is not properly embedded.

 

[Meenu Sharma]

Can anyone please help how to get my YouTube embedded code?

Moving to YouTube Feedback, as the question is about generating YouTube likes by posting a video to Facebook.

If people like your post when you share a YouTube video, that is a Facebook like and has nothing to do with YouTube. There is no "like" in the embedded player, so people need to view the video on YouTube and like it there to generate a YouTube like. There are many discussions about this on the Social Media Discussions board here - Social Media Discussions | TubeBuddy Forums

Maybe this is me getting it wrong, but surely the OP means the Facebook Likes on Videolytics

Which also has your Reddit Upvotes.

It used to do my head in - how many people LIKE on Facebook and then don't watch the video

I didn't understand why they like posts they clearly have no interest in

I could get [if I worked at it] up to 100 FB likes... and from that only a handful actually watch the video itself

But in answer to the OP

If you look, on your videos actual YT page, to the right of the screen [PC] the Videolytics are up there, and yes it automatically has the number of LIKES on display [from Facebook] which is nothing to do with the YouTube LIKES for the video itself.
