Helpful tips for watching YouTube videos
As you will be watching some YouTube videos to learn more about Google, the following will be helpful information:
- If a video on YouTube asks you to “subscribe” or to “pay money/make a donation” or “click on a new or different link” just ignore all of these, unless you want to do these things, of course. Many links like this on YouTube videos are not nefarious but do take good care and ensure you know what you are clicking on, from within a YouTube video, before your do.
- Most videos on YouTube are free, and you can watch them over and over… for free, even if they ask for financial support.
- Most YouTube videos begin with an advertisement, or two (yes, they can be annoying, but they are unavoidable), but you typically don’t have to watch the entire advertisement. Usually, after a few seconds into the ad, a tiny box shows up on the video’s bottom right hand corner that says “Skip Ads.” Just click on that “Skip Ads” button, and the ad will disappear, and the video you wish to watch will start.
