4. Now first check the option “Yes, allow a selected set of my activities to be viewable”. You have to decide what activities you want to share.

Check boxes next to activity names which you want to share on social media sites. For example, if you check the box next to “Like a video” then if you like any video on YouTube, it will be shared on your other networks automatically.

Tip: If you are a frequent user of YouTube who regularly likes, comments or uploads videos then don’t check these options as it could annoy your friends on other networks. You might just want to check the “Favorite a video” option.
