    YouTube Experiments With Allowing Creators to Sell Ad Space Directly to Brands: YouTube is piloting a new program that gives creators more control over the ads that appear on their videos by letting them sell ad space directly to brands they regularly work with. Tom Leung, YouTube’s director of product management, said in a recent Creator Insider video on YouTube, “We’re experimenting with a new way for creators to sell advertising to brands with whom they already have a relationship.” Leung didn’t offer specifics other than acknowledging that the pilot program involves a very small, limited group of participants but there’s speculation that the program may closely resemble the Partner-Sold Ads program.

    YouTube Adds Notifications Analytics to Video Metrics: YouTube rolled out Bell Notification Analytics to all channels. Notification Analytics show how many subscribers received a notification, how many subscribers clicked on the bell, and the number of video views received via bell notifications. Additionally, channel owners will also receive explanations when bell notifications aren’t sent out to 100% of subscribers.

    YouTube Analytics Now Lets Creators Compare More Metrics Side by Side: YouTube creators can now use the Deep Dive section of the YouTube Analytics dashboard to compare multiple metrics side by side for the first time. Available comparisons include views versus comments on a single video, overall period over period channel performance, geographic audience comparisons, and more.

    Facebook Tests Cross-Posting Facebook Stories to Instagram Stories: In 2017, Instagram added the option to cross-post stories to Facebook Stories. Now, TechCrunch’s Josh Constine is reporting that Facebook has confirmed it’s testing the option to cross-post Facebook Stories to Instagram. Jane Manchun Wong captured a screenshot that shows a Share to Instagram toggle that’s available in Preview after you’ve created a Facebook story.
