How to do it
- 1
Upload your video file
Use your original export for the best quality. Upload from a file, up to 500 MB.
- 2
Set a Shorts-friendly length
Choose a duration range that suits your channel and how many clips you want.
- 3
Download and post
Download your vertical clips and upload them to YouTube Shorts yourself.
What makes these clips work
Give the first line a job
The opening should make viewers want the next sentence. Use the hook score to compare options.
Write your own title
A plain title that says what happens works better than a clever one nobody can search for.
Keep a steady rhythm
Use the posting calendar and daily reminder to post regularly and record which days you shared.
