Have you ever stumbled upon a humorous or helpful video on the internet and wondered where it came from? You may be unaware, but it is possible to find the origin of the video by a reverse video search technique.

Knowing more in-depth information about what to look for is imperative, which we will show you in this article. Here’s the step by step guide on how to do a reverse video search on Google

What is the benefit of Reverse Video Search?

1 A reverse video search can show you each time your video appears on a different website and social site.

2 You can find the full version of the video, as some file-sharing sites have file size limits (Ex – Reddit)
