Create a new channel

YouTube is one of the largest video sharing platforms with more than 30 million channels. It provides content creators, influencers and bloggers a platform to showcase their skillsets to an audience. Furthermore, it's an effective way to build brand awareness and expand your business.

If you're just starting out or have been producing videos for some time, having a strategy for managing your channel from start to finish is beneficial. Here are some helpful tips and tricks that will help build an impressive presence and engage with viewers on an expert level.

First, you'll need to create a Google account (if you don't already have one). This is free and gives you access to YouTube as well as many other Google services.

Once you have your Google account set up, it's time to create your channel. To do this, visit YouTube on your computer and click on the "Create a new channel" link located under Settings.

Once you've submitted the information requested on the previous page, you'll be taken to a new one where you must enter your channel name and profile picture. Your channel name will appear as a banner at the front of your channel as well as in search results.

Your description is essential. It should give viewers an overview of your channel, help them locate videos, and include links to other social media accounts and websites.

If you're a business, you can further customize your description by including a contact email address or location. Doing so will enable potential customers and clients to connect directly with you.

Finally, add channel art to your page to make it more eye-catching and stand out from competitors. This image should appear across the top of every viewer's page regardless of which device they're watching on.

A channel banner is essential, and can easily be created by downloading an image and uploading it to your account. There are various templates for creating channel banners, so be sure to select one that suits both your style and message best.

Sign in to your existing channel

YouTube provides multiple accounts with which users can log in, but if you need to manage multiple ones at once, here are a few things you should be aware of: firstly, set up a temporary email address for this purpose.

Subscribing to your channel with an email address is essential, as it enables viewers to make comments and contact you directly. Furthermore, adding an email address helps build trust with followers.

Google offers temporary email addresses as well as other web services. However, it's best to select one that works with the platforms you plan on using.

Once you've created a temporary email address, anyone with internet access can log into your channel. From there, view your dashboard to check for any incoming emails requiring confirmation.

Additionally, adding your email address to the About page of your channel allows viewers to send you messages or ask questions about your videos more quickly. This can be especially beneficial for businesses as it helps you respond to customer inquiries more promptly.

To create a YouTube channel, the process is similar. You'll select a name and provide basic information about your channel. After that, upload branding elements and optimize content for search engines.

To do this, click your profile icon in the upper right corner and select Settings. From there, go to Advanced settings if available.

A brand account is a type of Google account created specifically for businesses. Unlike personal accounts, brand accounts can be utilized by multiple people and have different permissions.

Brand accounts are the best option for brands with multiple channel operators, since a brand account can be accessed from multiple Google accounts. Therefore, it's wise to transition your existing channel onto a brand account as soon as possible - this will make scaling down easier down the line much smoother.

If you're transitioning your channel to a brand account, you'll need to transfer all subscriptions and playlists created or subscribed to. This requires some effort and can be time-consuming but achievable.

Add a new channel

If you're a vlogger or business owner with multiple interests, having your own YouTube channel can help organize and share different types of videos with viewers. Not only does having more than one channel build brand awareness and reach, but it also makes it simpler for people to find and follow what you post.

Adding a YouTube channel is an easy process that you can do from either your phone or computer browser. Just click on the Profile icon in the top right corner and select Create a channel from the dropdown menu.

Once your YouTube channel is set up, it's time to customize the page and start uploading videos. Here are a few tips on making the most of your new page:

First, create a channel description and include a link to your website or other social media pages. This will make it simpler for potential customers to contact you and determine if you offer what they need.

Next, select a cover art for your channel. This icon will appear on both the homepage and video descriptions on YouTube. Ideally, it should be about 800 pixels wide in either JPG, GIF, or BMP format.

You can opt for a watermark that will appear in the lower-right corner of all videos. This is an effective way to safeguard your content and prevent theft.

YouTube ads are an effective way to promote your channel and boost its visibility. The platform boasts an expansive advertising network that enables you to target audiences based on demographics, language, and topics they're searching for.

To ensure your ad is successful, it's essential to target specific audiences. For instance, targeting 28-40 year old new dads who subscribe to home improvement channels and watch DIY videos could prove successful.

Finally, make your channel easy to find by including relevant keywords in the description and creating an appealing title. These will be indexed by search engines and displayed across YouTube in suggested channel categories and search results.

Add a new video

More than 1.5 billion people watch videos on YouTube each month, making it an invaluable platform for business owners or nonprofit leaders to promote their brands. Fortunately, creating and uploading videos to YouTube is a relatively straightforward process that requires only some basic knowledge and practice.

Once you create a video, there are plenty of options to customize its appearance, encourage viewers to subscribe, link it with your Google account, and more. With certain YouTube accounts, you may also be able to publish your work elsewhere online and share it through social media networks.

Before uploading your video to YouTube, make sure it meets the YouTube requirements for quality and size. The recommended resolution is 1920x1080 pixels with an aspect ratio of 16:9.

When uploading a YouTube video, you'll be asked to select its privacy setting. Generally, public is best for videos you want everyone to view and share. On the other hand, if you only plan on distributing the video for an event or campaign, schedule it to be visible until a date and time selected during uploading.

You can add end screens and cards to your video that direct viewers to related videos, playlists, links and more. Cards can be customized with images, titles and calls-to-action that fit within the theme and tone of your video.

Once your video is published, click Publish. Your video will then appear in YouTube search results and you can visit your channel page to access settings, enhancements, audio, annotations and closed captions.

The next step in creating your video's thumbnail is to choose an image or video from your computer or upload one custom from YouTube's library. As this thumbnail will appear in search results and on your channel page, make sure it reflects the content of your video.

The final step in creating your video's outro is to include a call-to-action (CTA). A CTA is simply an instruction that tells viewers what action they should take with the information in your video. With Vimeo's YouTube video creator, you have several templates available for placing CTA messaging and designing an effective outro.
