    Hello Everyone.

    We have a YouTube account that has been around for many years.

    We also have a separate google account that we use for webmaster/analytics/adwords/mybusiness etc...

    We just noticed that our YouTube account is not linked to this same account that the rest of our business uses for all other Google services.

    Is there any way to add our existing YouTube account to our existing Google Account?  We don't want to re-upload everything onto a new channel as we'd like to preserve the age of the videos plus the views and comments.

    Anyone know how to accomplish what I have in mind?

    Thanks in advance!

          Does google index html5 tracks (captions) for videos?

          If we add the <track> tag next to a html5 video, with a Web Video Text Tracks Format (WebVTT) file for video subtitles / captions will google visit that and index it?

          My wistia videos are not being index by Google. Does anyone know what can be happening?

          I have the wistia site map on my robots.txt file and I also manually submit the site map to google. It shows that my videos were submitted successfully but they are not being indexed.  Thanks

          Videos - Host on our Site or YouTube or Both

          Hi We are redesigning our site and going to post how to videos on some of our product pages.
          For SEO purposes I want to post the videos on our site with a video transcription either self hosting or through Wistia. Can we also post the same videos on YouTube or is that duplicate content and will we get hurt somehow? Thanks.

          How can I get around creating multiple Gmail accounts with the same phone number?

          You know how, when you setup a Gmail account, Google asks you for a phone number to verify the account? I've run into a problem where Google is not letting me create anymore accounts with the same phone number. I set up an account for every new client we take on so that we have complete control of the inbox for verification purposes. Is there a way to get around this verification issue? We tried an app called Burner Phone but found out Google won't call the number because it's not supported by any major providers (e.g. Verizon, AT&T, etc.). Any suggestions? Thanks for your help!

          Getting reviews to stick on Yelp & Google

          Do you have any tricks to getting reviews to stick on yelp? Whenever we ask out customers to review us on there their reviews end up getting "detected" as fakes. I have tried it out myself, and the only way i've gotten them to stick is making several reviews of various different local businesses with average ratings and then dropping one in for the client with a better rating. Perhaps this is a little on the blackhat/greyhat side of things.  But if our customers are legitimatly trying to review us and it doesn't stick, i don't feel all that bad taking this route, the only real problem is time consumed. What about google? has anyone had any luck gaining more reviews for their client on google?
