Autopilot Daily Video Content with YouTube RSS Feeds and IFTTT

November 2, 2015 by Lisa Allen

YouTube Videos provide a great way to add useful content to your blog on a regular basis without having to spend a lot of time creating videos yourself.

Plus, we all know that Google loves video embeds in posts, and websites that add new content often.

So in this video, you’ll learn how to set up a constant stream of curated video content to your blog that you can put on complete auto-pilot after the initial few minutes of set up.

This is an easy technique that anyone can do if you just follow the step by step instructions in the video.

For this technique all you need is:

  1. Ifttt.com account – http://ifttt.com
  2. WordPress blog (URL and login details)
  3. YouTube Channel RSS feeds
  4. RSS FeedFinder (optional, but once you see how fast you can find dozens of RSS Feeds from YouTube without any manual searching, you’ll know why I created it. – Grab it here: http://rssfeedfinder.com)

Check out the video above for the full step by step tutorial to set one of these perpetual video content engines up for your own website now.

    Great tutorial and ideas. Thanks again Lisa for overdelivery.

    Do you have a suggestion for a WP theme that works well with this video content, and do we need a video site map plugin?

    And is there a strategy to set up categories so video content is separate from other blog entries – maybe it’s “there” but not displayed prominently ? More for SEO and not visitor eyeballs? just thinking… maybe too much!

      It depends on how much video content you are using on the site. If the site is pretty much all video content, then a pinterest masonry grid type theme can be a good option. There are both free and paid themes available with this kind of layout.

      regarding separating the content, if you look at the tutorial, there’s a box in the ifttt recipe setup where you can choose a category for the post to go into from that recipe.

    Hi Lisa,
    Thanks for the Tutorial very informative.

    Would you have a test blog to share, so that we can have a look at the outcome.

      No I’m sorry, I am no longer maintaining so many test sites because of the constant security updates required and risk to my other sites if someone hacks a forgotten test site and gets into my server that way to wreck or infect the rest of my sites..

    Thanks for the awesome video – I have been thinking of using ifttt and seeing your video will make me take action on that

        Lisa, I have setup a recipe for an RSS feed to a wordpress site. Now I want to do the same for several other sites. However the Feed channel is already connected to my first RSS feed. How do I connect another feed channel to other RSS feeds for my other wordpress sites?
        Do I need multiple IFTTT accounts? I got your tool – it works great
        Thanks Norm

          There is only one of each channel per account in IFTTT.

          In most cases, that means you can only connect one email address on the email channel, or one website on the wordpress channel.

          But the feeds channel is different because you give it the Feed URL in the individual recipe, and not for the entire channel. So if you want to connect other feeds to different actions, just make a new recipe and enter a different feed URL.

    As always, I get totally sucked into your content, Miss Lisa. Excellent tutorial. I have your RSS Authority Sniper already, but not sure that it does the bulk finding that your new RSS software does. Would you mind sharing the basic differences? Just wondering whether RAS would suffice or whether I need to buy your new one. It seems RAS doesn’t have the big data export capacity or mechanism to do that like your new software does. Am I wrong?

    • Lisa Allen says

      RSS Authority Sniper is an SEO tool– it does a lot of things that FeedFinder does not, such as mashing your own content into authority feeds, submitting to feedburner, getting feeds indexed through pinging and RSS submissions.

      But FeedFinder is not an SEO tool. Instead, feed finder is a helper for content research and writing. So it allows you to export feeds and site urls with their keywords so you can use them in content generation. Since that is not what RAS is for, it doesn’t need, and doesn’t have that feature.

      So the options each tool has reflects what it’s intended for.

      While it might be nice to imagine a tool that had every option in the world, from my experience, what happens when I release those kind of “swiss army knife” tools is that because there are so many things someone can do with it, everyone thinks it’s too much tool for them, (kind of like being told you are overqualified for a job) and no matter how reasonable the price, people think it’s over priced and generally just don’t “get it” and imagine themselves using it in their business.

      So often, making a simpler tool, at a lower price with a very clear single purpose is actually better for the end user because they won’t buy it and then let it just sit because they have no idea what to do with it.
