Open Settings → Growth to help YouTube viewers find your articles, collect email signups on another site, or share your homepage with a QR code. The publication owner manages YouTube links. You can link each video to its article, add your homepage to your channel profile, or do both. When you publish an article from a video, Convella can add a short cvla.link URL to that video’s description. It keeps the existing description intact, and the link still leads to your article if you change its URL or your website’s domain.

Turn on article links

If you have multiple connected channels, choose the one whose descriptions you want to update. Turn on Promote your articles on YouTube. If prompted, click Review permissions and grant Convella permission to edit descriptions for that channel.

Choose the text and placement

Under Link text, enter the message viewers should see with the article link. Choose Top of description or Bottom of description, then click Save changes. Changes apply to links added from then on. Turning promotion off leaves existing links in place.

Update existing videos

Turning on promotion doesn’t change descriptions for articles you’ve already published. To update those, click Add article links under Existing videos. Your website must be public. Convella skips Shorts and descriptions that don’t have room for the link. You can follow progress in the same row. If Convella reaches its daily YouTube limit, updates resume automatically. To stop the remaining work yourself, click Cancel. Click Resume updates to continue later.

Add your homepage to your channel

Under Add your website to YouTube, click View instructions and copy your website URL. Follow the YouTube Studio link, then go to Customization → Profile → Links. Select Add link, enter a title such as “Website and newsletter,” and paste the URL. Move it to the top if you want viewers to see it first, then click Publish. Back in Convella, click I’ve done this to mark the step complete.

Signup forms

To collect subscribers on another website, open Signup forms and click Embed. Choose the layout that fits the page:
  • Branded includes your site icon, signup heading, and description. You can also change the background color.
  • Minimal shows just the email field and signup button.
Click Copy code and paste it into an HTML or embed block on the other website.
Embedded forms require a public website, free member signups, and newsletter sending to be enabled.

QR code

Your QR code opens your website’s homepage. Click the code and choose Save as PNG for a slide or digital image, or Save as SVG for print so you can resize it without losing sharpness.
