Social Follow Graphics for YouTube
A follow graphic points viewers to where else you publish without spending the end of your video reading handles aloud. A handle on screen is remembered; a handle spoken is not.
The useful version shows the platform mark and the handle together, holds long enough to be read or screenshotted, and does not try to list six networks at once. Two or three is the practical limit before a viewer stops reading and none of them land.
This shelf carries single cards, vertical rails for Shorts, and rows that reveal several handles in sequence so each gets its own moment rather than sharing a crowded frame.
Every mark and handle is a layer. If you publish somewhere that is not in the template, you can swap the icon and the text rather than starting over.
Every template here is free to open, free to change and free to watch back, with no account needed to browse. Exporting the finished file costs $5 once for that project, or a plan covers every export.

Using follow & social graphics
- How long should a handle stay on screen?
- At least three seconds. A viewer has to notice it, read it and decide whether to act, and anything quicker only works for a handle they already knew.
- How many platforms should one graphic show?
- Two or three. Past that the graphic becomes a list, and a list gets skipped — pick the ones you actually post to.
- Do these work vertically?
- Several are built for it. A vertical rail keeps the handles clear of the button column that Shorts and Reels draw down the right-hand side.
- Do I need After Effects, and can I change the colours?
- No, and yes. Every handle, icon colour and platform on these is a layer you edit in the browser, and the timing of each one arriving is a keyframe you can move. What you export is a transparent WebM or MOV that drops straight into Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro or CapCut.
