So you want to emphasize your comments on YouTube? With hundreds of other users wanting to get their voices heard through the commenting section, the competition is jam-packed. However, you can use several formatting tools that will make your message stand out.
YouTube now enables you to format your text in the comment section of the videos. That means, you can make the world bold, italicized or add a strike through it. Let’s check out how you can do so.
How to Make your YouTube Comments in Bold Format on Videos
What better way to emphasize your comment than making the text bold. Bolding a text thickens it, making it easier to spot among the surge of comments every second.
To make your YouTube comments bold, all you have to do is add an asterisk sign (*) before and after the text. You can bold a word, a phrase or an entire sentence.
Changing a Comment in YouTube to Italics or Italicize Text Format
Editing the text to italics also gives emphasis to the word or phrase. Many users italicize their comments if they want to emphasize an exaggeration, create a dialogue or post an excerpt.
To set your comments in italics, you need to add an underscore (_) before and after the word or phrase.
Adding a Strike-Through Text on your YouTube Comments
A strike-through deletes a word or phrase but does not necessarily remove it from the sentence. This emphasizes adjustment or changes while also noting the changes it came from.
For instance, you acknowledged having been stand-corrected so you strike through the word or sentence from your previous comment and add the changes on your new comment next to the strike-through.
To strike-through a comment, simply, add a dash (-) before and after it.
In Closing
Text formatting can help draw people’s attention to your YouTube’s comments. Use it well to everyone’s benefit.
