Videos

Last updated

In your portal: My Business → Videos

A video shows a room, a dish or a workshop in a way photos can't. You don't upload the file — you paste a link to a video you've already posted, and we embed it on your page.

Where videos can come from

  • YouTube — a normal video link, or a Short.
  • Facebook — a video post from your page. It has to be public, or nobody outside Facebook can play it.

Adding one

  1. Open the video on YouTube or Facebook and copy its link from the address bar or the Share button.
  2. In your portal go to My Business → Videos and press Add video.
  3. Choose the provider, paste the link, and add a short caption saying what it shows.
  4. Save. The video appears on your page as a player people can start without leaving the site.

How many you can add

Video is a paid-plan feature, and the number you get rises with the plan — the table under Photos shows the current allowances.

If the video won't play

  • It's private or unlisted. Only public videos can be embedded. Check the visibility setting where you posted it.
  • Embedding is switched off. YouTube lets an uploader block embedding; turn it back on in YouTube Studio.
  • It's a link to a page, not a video. A link to your Facebook page won't work — open the individual video post first, then copy that link.

What's worth filming

A slow walk through the space beats a slideshow. Thirty to sixty seconds is plenty, shot sideways so it fills the player, with enough light that faces are visible. Nobody expects a commercial — they want to see the real place before they travel to it.
