How to share your Biteable videos on social media
Here are the steps on how to share your Biteable videos on Facebook, X (Twitter), LinkedIn, YouTube, and Instagram.
Facebook
Ideal video sizes: 1:1, 16:9, 4:5, 9:16 (Reels)
From the Biteable “Publish” page, download your video as an mp4
Log in to Facebook & select “Photo/video” from the upload options
Upload your video and add a caption
Click “Video Options” to add things like a title, captions, and thumbnail (you can download captions and a thumbnail from Biteable)
When you’re happy with all of your selections, click “Post”
Ideal video sizes: 1:1, 4:5, 16:9, 9:16
Download your video as an mp4 from Biteable
Log in to X (Twitter) and select “Media”
Upload your video and add a caption
If you’re happy with your video and caption, click post!
LinkedIn
Ideal video sizes: 1:1, 4:5, 16:9, 9:16
Download your video as an mp4 from Biteable
Log in to LinkedIn and select “Media”
Upload your video and use LinkedIn’s editor to add a title, video captions, and thumbnail. Once you’ve added these elements, click “Next”.
Add a caption for your video and click “Post”
Ideal video sizes: 16:9, 9:16 (Shorts)
Download your video as an mp4 from Biteable
Log in to YouTube and select “Create”, then “Upload video”
Upload your video and add a title, description, and thumbnail
Add video captions and YouTube cards (optional)
Add your video visibility, and click “Save” to post your video
Instagram
Ideal video sizes: 1:1, 4:5, 9:16 (Reels)
Download your video as an mp4 from Biteable
Log in to Instagram and select “Create”
Upload your video
Select your cover photo, or upload your own, then click “Next”
Add your video caption, tag any relevant pages, and click “Share”
When you share a link and then change the title after first sharing the link (to Linkedin, Slack, Facebook and other tools), those services will cache the thumbnail and title of the video. When you update the video in Biteable (the actual video or the title), the social properties will not go back and refresh their cached titles, even if you delete the link and repost it. So, how do you fix this?
Duplicate the video project (from your Home or Projects page)
Update the title first
Build the video (this is a new duplicated video so will require a build)
Then you will get a brand new, unique link, share it
