i an answering your query ya

follow these steps to create channel

(1) Go to YouTube and login with your Google account. Once you are logged in, you will see your name or username at the top of the left menu. Click this to access your user page.



(2) Add channel art. This is an image that is seen at the top of your channel page. Youtube will show examples of how the image will be displayed from the website, on a TV, and on a mobile device.



Use artwork that will draw your viewer’s attention. The cover image will set your channel apart from the rest of the YouTube interface.

Include your channel’s name or a message in the channel art. This will help solidify your name in the viewer’s mind.

Change your channel art regularly. Unless you want to set a brand image by keeping the same picture, consider regularly changing your channel art in relation to what content you are releasing in your channel. For example, if you are doing comedy sketches, change the channel art so that it relates to your current set of sketches.



(3) Describe your channel. Add a brief description for your channel to let the viewer know what kind of content to expect. To adjust the channel description, click the About tab in the main channel window. From there click the “+ Channel description” button.





Look at what’s out there. The first step to adding content is deciding what you want to share with the world. People use YouTube for a huge variety of things, from watching music videos, laughing at comedy sketches, learning with tutorial videos, and much more. Think about what you can bring to audiences that they aren’t getting from anyone else.



Use the description to include links to your other websites, or to update news about your channel. Discuss who appears in your videos and link other related channels.

Determine what your strengths are. If your friends keep telling you that you’re funny, consider making comedy videos. If singing is your thing, upload some videos of you performing. The key is to create content that will keep your viewers coming back to see more.

Consider doing reviews. Reviews are a great way to gain viewers, especially if you are reviewing something that people will be searching for. People always want to see good reviews before making the decision to purchase a product or service. There are a variety of possible review topics, including:



New albums

The latest gadgets

TV and movies

Video games

Books

Restaurants and other food products

Businesses

Film as much as possible. Constantly try to create more content for your viewers. Not only will a steady stream of content keep your audience glued to your channel, it will also help you improve your craft as you continue to develop your style.



Brush up on basic video-making techniques. If you’re talking into the camera, make sure that the camera is steady and that you are speaking clearly and at a good volume. You may have the funniest skit in the world, but nobody is going to watch it if they can’t hear or see you properly.

Practice editing your videos. A well-edited video will make a much stronger impression on viewers than a hastily thrown together creation. Spend some time learning the ins and outs of your video editing software. Look up tutorials on how to perform basic editing functions.



There are a variety of free and open source video editors available online. Many of these contain the same features or similar features as expensive professional editing software.

Make your introductions compelling. Most viewers will determine a video’s worth in the first few seconds. Strive to make your intros both entertaining and informative. The longer viewers watch your video, the higher YouTube will rank your videos on search results.



Show a teaser of clips from the video that the viewer is about to watch.

Make sure that your personality is front and center from the start of the video. Talk directly to the audience. Introduce the video personally, quickly discussing what to expect (don’t give away your twist if you have one!).

If you’ve built a brand, such as your name or a series that you are creating, make sure that is distinct and professional looking at the start of your video.

When making a nonfiction video, such as a review or tutorial, make sure that the purpose of the video is clear at the very beginning. This will keep viewers from looking for another, more informative video.

Capitalize on buzz. The media constantly creates hype around events throughout the year, in virtually every field of interest. These are referred to as “Tent-pole” events. Examine your programming and determine which events are tent-pole events for your audience.



Create videos leading up to the event to capitalize on pre-event searches. As anticipation grows for an event, more and more people will be searching for related content.

Create videos during the event to cover it as it is happening. This is great for viewers that can’t otherwise experience the event themselves.

Create follow-up videos after the event. Use this time to summarize what happened and analyze any information.

Interact with your viewers throughout the process to keep them coming back to your channel.

During big events, increase the amount of content you release to continue capitalizing on new viewers. More content shows viewers that you are knowledgeable and passionate about the event.
