How do I create a YouTube link that starts at a specific time?
Append `?t=` followed by the start time in seconds or in `1h2m3s` format. Example: `https://youtu.be/abc123?t=90` jumps to 1 minute 30 seconds. Both the long youtube.com and short youtu.be URLs accept the parameter. The generator builds these for you so you do not have to compute seconds manually.
Why use timestamp links instead of just sharing the video?
Timestamp links respect the viewer's time and dramatically improve click-through. Pointing to a specific moment (a quoted answer, a tutorial step, a chart on screen) feels considerate and keeps the audience engaged. Influencers, journalists, and educators rely on timestamp links to cite sources precisely.
Do timestamp links work in embeds and Shorts?
Timestamp links work in standard YouTube videos and embedded iframes (use `start=90` in the iframe URL). YouTube Shorts ignore timestamps because they are short-form vertical clips meant to play from the start. Live streams and premieres support timestamps once the broadcast becomes a regular video.
Can I link to a timestamp inside a comment?
Yes. When you type a timestamp like `1:23` in a YouTube comment, YouTube auto-converts it to a clickable link that jumps to that moment. This is great for collaborative timestamping in long videos and improves accessibility for viewers who land on a comment via search.
Is there a limit on how late in a video the timestamp can go?
No. You can link to any second up to and including the final frame of the video. For very long videos (live stream replays, 6-hour podcasts), use the `1h2m3s` format because the seconds value would otherwise be hard to read. The generator handles formatting either way.
Can I create a range with a start and end time?
A regular YouTube link supports only a start time. To highlight a clip range, embed the video on your own page with `start=` and `end=` parameters in the iframe URL. There is no native range parameter for shareable youtube.com URLs; the workaround is an iframe embed or a third-party clip tool.
