Add YouTube walkaround videos and Shorts to car listings
A long walkaround on YouTube answers most of a buyer's questions before they call. The plan is to accept a YouTube or Shorts link on each listing and show YouTube's own player there, loaded only when a buyer presses play. It is planned, not built yet.
What you can do today
- Add the listing's link to the video description, so viewers see the car's price, specs and recalls.
- Link your MotorHangar dealer page from your channel's About section.
How it would work
You paste a youtube.com or youtu.be link on the listing.
The listing shows the thumbnail; YouTube's player loads only when a buyer taps it.
Plays count on your channel, as with any embedded video.
What it will do
- YouTube videos and Shorts
- YouTube's official embed, loaded on demand
Limitations
- Not built yet.
- One video per listing at first.
- Unlisted videos can be embedded; private ones cannot.
Questions about YouTube
Will the video slow down the listing?
No. Only a thumbnail loads with the page; the YouTube player, its scripts and its cookies load when the buyer taps play.
Do plays on MotorHangar count on my channel?
Yes. It is YouTube's own player, so plays count like any embedded view.
Can I use an unlisted video?
Yes. Unlisted videos can be embedded; private ones cannot, by YouTube's rules.
