Since YouTube launched over 13 years ago, the video-sharing website has been at the forefront of user-generated video content and video-blogging. Thanks to a huge number of online users and an affinity with music, performance or other short-form content, YouTube is an important (but often overlooked) tool for the event industry. However, promoting your events on YouTube is fairly easy.
