In this article, we will discuss how to create a YouTube subscription link to be posted anywhere as a button if you’d like to offer the option for people to easily subscribe to your channel.

Here’s a step by step guide on how to create your YouTube subscription link:

STEP 1.

Get your channel’s URL.
If you don't know, how to find the channel link. Just go into incognito mode and Search and find your channel on YouTube.

Tap your channel page and now Tap ‘Home’ and Copy the URL

STEP 2.

Add ?sub_confirmation=1 to the end of your URL.

For example, here is my channel’s YouTube URL:

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSGfaySf1b92irHZqqi3PDA

Now I want to create a link that people can tap and immediately be prompted to subscribe.

I will add ?sub_confirmation=1 at the end of this URL.

So, the final link is:

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSGfaySf1b92irHZqqi3PDA?sub_confirmation=1

Now you can use this link as a button anywhere (like- social media pages, websites, video descriptions, or anywhere you want.).

When anyone will tap on this link, YouTube will ask for confirmation for a subscription as shown below.





Please note:
This YouTube channel subscription trick only works on desktops. When someone taps this link on mobile, they will be redirected to your channel on the built-in YouTube app. It will not prompt to encourage them to subscribe to your channel.
