General Information
Content syndication, in general, is when existing digital content gets republished on a third-party website. Now, syndication isn’t only limited to videos, but it can be applied to all types of content, including blog posts, news articles, infographics, etc.
Backlot users can syndicate their videos by using OAuth 2.0 authorization.
Once these three elements are connected (Youtube, Google, and Backlot), you can start the syndication process.
Content syndication is a method of republishing and re-uploading content on other platforms to reach a broader audience; it also increases the awareness and traffic on the original content.
Limits on Size and Duration of Videos
The limit and duration for video files that you can syndicate are 64 gigabytes and less than 15 minutes.
Labels in YouTube Syndication
The first step is to understand how the label works and what can work for a specific video and channel to reach a particular demographic. Syndication allows you to sync content with your YouTube channel automatically.
