User who are used to uploading videos to YouTube will know that there were two ways of sharing videos on YouTube, Public and Private. When you choose to share publically your video was available to the whole world to watch and also got indexed in search engines. if you choose the private options you could upload your video and invite up to 25 people to watch the video.
This is now changed you can upload a video and choose to share it privately with any number of people. YouTube now has a third option called "Unlisted". If you upload a video and mark it is unlisted then this is what happens.
1. It will not appear in any of YouTube's public pages

3. Will not appear on your person channel
4. Will not appear on the Browse Page
It becomes a totally private video except that you do not need to have a YouTube account to watch it. There is also no limit to the number of people who can view it. Once you upload the video you will get a video link and it is up to you to choose who you want to share this video with. So please be careful who you give this link to as the video is available to people with the link.
