If you want to upload music to YouTube, there are a few things you need to do first. First, open up YouTube and sign in. Next, click on the three lines in the top left corner of the main screen. This will take you to your account’s main page. From here, click on “Upload.” Now that you’re in “Upload” mode, it’s time to get your music ready for upload. First, make sure that your music is in MP3 or WAV format. If it’s not, you’ll need to convert it before uploading it to YouTube. Next, make sure that your audio is properly tagged and organized. You can use the “Browse” button on the right side of the “Upload” screen to find and select your music files. Once you’ve selected all of your files, click on the “Upload” button at the bottom of the screen. YouTube will now start uploading your music file(s). Depending on how large your file is(s), this process may take a few minutes or hours. When it’s done uploading, YouTube will give you a message telling you how many people have viewed/played your video so far and how much time is left until its scheduled end time (this information changes depending on when your video was uploaded). Clicking on the message will take you back to the main “Upload” screen where you can see how much space remains on your YouTube account for future videos and how many people have voted for/liked/commented on your video (these numbers change depending on when your video was uploaded). Finally, click on “Save Video.” That’s all there is to it! Now go ahead and upload some great music videos! ..
