YouTube Shorts have skyrocketed in popularity thanks to the ability to create quick engaging video snippets that feel just like real life moments. Now, you might be wondering, can you plan and schedule your YouTube Shorts in advance? Absolutely. With Vista Social, not only can you create those classic YouTube videos, but you can also easily create and schedule shorts here. Here’s how to do it.

First, make sure that the Short you are uploading is between 15 to 60 seconds long. For example, the video I loaded here is 21 seconds, perfect for a Short. Next, just add the #shorts in both the title and the description. You may switch the post preview between a Short or a classic video by clicking on the button at the top right.

Once you’re happy with your title, description, and video, you’re ready to publish your post. Now, let’s take a look at how our YouTube Short appears in our calendar. Now it’s published and live on YouTube, so here’s what it looks like.
