I often need to edit my video and update the new version on YouTube, but on the same address.
It seems not possible, so is there a way maybe to create some automatic redirection feature from old to new address?
It’s not actually possible to upload new versions and “update” a video clip on YouTube.
Here are my best practice tips for updating a video:
Why is that best practice?
By following the above best practice you don’t lose your total “views” or the position of that video in search results. At the same time you provide useful and relevant information to people who happen to view the old video clip - you give them a link to a newer version. You’ve helped them. You’ve used the ecosystem of the web in a much better way than just deleting the old, out of date, video.
