Anyone know how to deep link effectively?

[Online Vulture]

So I am testing out the method of deep linking to my youtube videos. I have tried url genius but I don't feel it looks natural when clicking on the link. It looks a bit dodgy so I assume people will spook away.

Anyone know of a more natural deep link service?

I totally get what you mean about wanting to avoid those dodgy looking links - nobody wants to scare away potential viewers!

Have you tried using Bitly or TinyURL? Both are great options for shortening and customizing links, so you can make them look more natural and less spammy. Plus, they're free and super easy to use.

Another option is to create a landing page on your own website or blog and link to your videos from there. This not only looks more natural, but it also gives you the opportunity to showcase your brand and provide additional information to your viewers.

Hope that helps, let me know if you have any other questions!

There's specific deeplink services like geni.us I think, they're usually better than normal shortlinking services

I am not looking for shortlinking - I am looking for deep linking. It is where you can force the link to open the desired app. So for example, If I post a YT video on FB or Reddit, usually it will embed on their site or open their in-app browser to the video as they do not want to lose the user to go elsewhere. But with deep linking, when they click the link/video it will take them to the app instead. This helps hugely with YT stats as they want that helping push the video. Also they can actually engage (like/subscribe) as they are logged in.

I don't think they do deep linking.
