Use this interactive demo to learn how to enable comments on your YouTube videos in YouTube Studio.

Quick summary

This demo shows how to activate comments on a YouTube video using YouTube Studio. In just five steps, you can open your video's settings, turn the Comments dropdown to ON, and save your changes.


Steps

  1. Go to studio.youtube.com, click Content in the left sidebar, then click the title of the video you want to update.
  2. Scroll down to the Comments and ratings section on the video details page.
  3. Click the Comments dropdown and select ON to allow all comments.
  4. Select moderation to hold potentially inappropriate comments for review, depending on your preference.
  5. Click Save in the top right corner to apply your changes.

📌 Why this matters

Enabling comments on YouTube videos is essential for creators who want to build community engagement and boost algorithmic visibility. YouTube's ranking signals favor videos with active viewer interaction, making comment sections a direct lever for channel growth. Without comments turned on, creators miss out on audience feedback, social proof, and the viewer-to-subscriber conversions that drive long-term channel success. This demo makes the process quick and foolproof for any creator managing their channel in YouTube Studio.
