How to Put a Facebook Badge on YouTube

Facebook badges let your YouTube channel followers find you on Facebook.

Facebook badges are buttons that allow people to see a Facebook user's information and click on it to visit their profile -- similar to an ID card. You can put a Facebook badge on other websites you are on, such as YouTube, to allow your followers to connect with you on Facebook. Uploading a badge is a quick process, as Facebook provides HTML embed codes once you make your profile badge.

Instructions

1. Log in to your Facebook account.

2. Open the "Badges" page.

3. Click "Profile Badges" on the left sidebar.

4. Click "+ Create a New Badge" on the upper right corner of the page.

7. Copy the embed code for the badge. To copy, press "Control" and "C" or right-click, and select "Copy."
