Own YouTube channel. Where to begin?

“YouTube” is by far the most popular hosting (site) in the world for posting and watching videos. As of the beginning of 2022, the total number of users of this service is more than 2.3 billion. Considering the large number of visitors, video creators have an excellent opportunity to receive income (additional or main) from advertising that is shown during content playback. That is why, having your own channel is not only interesting and "hype" but, under certain conditions, is quite profitable. So where to start creating your own YouTube channel...

1. Come up with an original name and logo for the channel.

You have probably already decided on the topic on which you will produce (shoot) the video. Besides? It is also necessary to come up with a concise name for the channel and a logo that will match both the name and the content. In the picture below, a good example of such a combination, in which from the name of the channel (“Cosmo”) and the logo, you can immediately guess that we are talking about space.

2. Create a YouTube channel.

If you still do not have a Google account, then the first step is to create one, since without it you will not be able to create a “YouTube” channel, and moreover, set up monetization. If you have such an account, then we will do everything according to the instructions directly from Google - https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/1646861?hl=en

An equally important aspect is the attractive design of the channel - it should correspond to the subject of the video and not cause rejection.

3. Create and add your video.

Be creative! Add some visual effects and music to your videos (if the subject allows) ... don't be afraid to experiment! There are many cases when an unremarkable at first glance video gains tens of thousands of views... and vice versa, when a flawless and high-quality video does not gain even half of what was expected...

Choose the right title for your video. This is one of the most important things. Think about what the users who are interested in your topic are most likely to enter in the search, and add these words to the title.

4. Promote your channel in various social networks.

Social networks are the most powerful tool for promoting anything, including youtube channels. Share your video with your friends, ask them to share with your 
