Linking videos together
in
YouTube

YouTube does offer
a completely different way of using online videos and it is
possible to build large online campaigns with a series of
videos. As videos are attracting more people than plain
text, this kind of campaign tends to be more effective.

Take a look at the great
example below and go through some of the choices. Try different
choices to see what happens.
YouTube video
campaign:

The campaign you see here is a government campaign to motivate
young people not to carry any weapons with them, with the
objective to lower the related number of casualties. The same
method can easily be used for online marketing campaigns.
How to create a link
Go to "My Videos" in your YouTube account and click on
"Annotations". You will see your video screen, with "Add
annotation" in the bottom corner. Move through your video, by
dragging the timeline button, to the point where you would like
to place the link. Click on "Add annotation" and choose a type
of annotation. You will then be able to type in text, add a link
to another video and decide how long this text & link will be
visible. Do not forget to publish at the end.
If you like this text, then please tell me how you would use
this kind of linking.
