Youtube Usability Improvable

Category: How Products benefit users Add comments

Dear Youtube logo

I love your wonderful service.

But I’ll love yours even more if you can make it quicker and clearer for me to upload videos.

1. Uploading Process

Problem: uploading process takes 2 steps

Solution: merge these 2 steps into one single page

Advantage: save users one screen load

2. Required field indicator

Problem: no indicator to distinguish required fields

Solution: put an asterisk beside each required field

Advantage: avoid confusion for users

3. Error message

Problem: very general and confusing “Please double-check your video title”.

Solution: “Title is required”

Advantage: avoid confusion of users

Upload process to youtube

Other Youtube users, what do you think of my suggestions? Please share your experience in the comments…

Thanks a lot
