YouTube without a link (Earning nothing list)
YouTube videos with no affiliate link, and how to add one.
The YouTube without a link tab on Coverage (it used to be called Earning nothing) lists YouTube videos that have views but no affiliate link in the description. The link still matters on long videos, where viewers can tap it in the description. On a Short, YouTube shows it as plain text that can't be tapped, on a phone or a computer. YouTube doesn't turn a description link into a product tag. Amazon product tags on YouTube are a separate YouTube Shopping feature that creators in YouTube Shopping turn on in YouTube Studio; EverySqueeze can't add them. See YouTube Shorts and links in the description.
Home shows how many there are as a quiet, optional line at the bottom of the card that lists what needs you. They are not counted in that card's number: a link there is optional, and nothing is broken.
What's shown
Each row shows the video's views and, where EverySqueeze can guess, product suggestions to add: picks from your own Amazon catalogue under From Amazon, or Did you mean suggestions matched from your library, each labelled with its Creator Connections rate when known. If nothing confident was found, it tells you the video needs your eyes.
Adding a link
Find the product on Amazon, then paste the ASIN or Amazon link into the box and press Add link. Short share links (amzn.to, a.co) work too: EverySqueeze opens them to find the product. If a link can't be read, a note under the box says so; paste the full amazon.com link (with /dp/) or the 10-character code that starts with B0. You can also search Amazon directly from the row with Find on Amazon. Your existing YouTube description is kept — the link is added, not a full rewrite — and every add can be undone.
Not a product video
Older uploads or personal videos that were never about a product can come off the list: press Skip, not a product video on the row. Nothing changes on YouTube, and the video no longer counts as missing a link. Undo puts it back.
Which tracking ID it uses
The link uses your YouTube tracking ID if you've set one in Settings → Amazon (one that ends in -20 or another -NN ending), or your default tracking ID otherwise. If neither is set, the panel says so and the link goes out untagged until you add one.
Keeping the list current
This list is read from your last YouTube sync. If you've added links directly on YouTube yourself, use Re-check my YouTube descriptions to refresh it — the panel shows how long ago it last checked.
When the list is empty
An empty tab says why: every YouTube video already has an Amazon link, the videos still without one already have a known product (so there is nothing to pick), or the check could not run just now (press Refresh at the top). If YouTube isn't connected yet, it links you to connect it.
An empty list is only as fresh as the last check of your YouTube uploads, so it is not proof that every video has a link. A video uploaded or edited since may not be checked yet. If you're looking at a YouTube video with no Amazon link in its description and it isn't listed, press Refresh at the top and look again; if it still isn't there, add the link on YouTube yourself or use Report a problem.
