YOUTUBE CHANNEL CREATION
CHANNEL OPTIMIZATION
Optimizing Your channel itself is
just as important as optimizing
everything related to a specific
video. There are various parts of your
channel that are discoverable by
Google so you need to make the most
of it.
At this stage, your channel is
not physically attractive to potential
viewers. You need to make it look
more welcoming.
Head over to the detailed YouTube
Channel art page where you can find
all the necessary information
showing images and sizes and channel art
templates for download
You can also find some very nice
free backgrounds for your channel art
over at YouTubeTheme.
If you are not particularly
artistic, you might want to head over to
Fiverr.com and find someone to
create your channel art for you.
On the other hand, if you are
somewhat artistic, but do not have the
necessary tools and also plan to
set up a number Of YouTube channels
then it may be worth your while
to purchase Instant Social Presence –
YouTube edition.
STEP 1
Click on the “Add channel art
button
STEP 2
Upload or drag your channel art
into place. Sometimes, when doing a
drag an drop, the image doesn't
take. If that happens to you then rather
use the upload feature.
STEP 3
Once your image is uploaded you
will be shown a template so that you
can see what your channel art
will look like across platforms i.e.
Desktop computer TV and Mobile.
You can adjust the crop slightly if
you need to, but I just leave it
and select as is.
Try to keep the top left hand
side clear, so that your avatar doesn't
overlap any important part of the
image.
Step 004
Now that your art is uploaded,
you will need to upload your channel
avatar. This is important because
it gives a “face” to your channel and
helps to make it a lot more
personal.
The avatar image does not have to
be your actual picture, it could be a
logo or anything else that will
help people identify with your channel.
Hover your mouse over the avatar
and a pencil icon will appear, click on
that pencil.
STEP 5
A new window will open enabling
you to add your pic/avatar/icon in
Google plus.
STEP 6
Drag and drop your photo or click
on the “Select a photo from your
computer” and upload the pic that
you want to use.
STEP 7
Your updated image will show
first on your Google plus page.
You might want to keep this page
open so that you can come back later
and work on your Google+
information.
STEP 8
Go back to your YouTube channel
and refresh the page. Your avatar
should now be showing. You can
change it again at anytime you wish
simply by hovering over it with
your mouse and hitting the edit pencil.
STEP 9
Now that your channel is more
visually appealing, it is time to tell the
world what your channel is going
to be about.
STEP 10
You can open all three links
immediately (the will all be visible on the
same page) or you can open them
one at a time.
STEP 11
You have 1000 characters
(including spaces) available. Don't forget that
page is discoverable by Google.
Get all your keywords together
and write a really nice article related to
what your viewers can expect from
you. Try and get as many related
keywords in as possible, but do
be careful not to be spammy. It is also
a good idea to add in links to
your website and/or squeeze page in this
area.
STEP 12
Once you have completed your
Channel Description, you need to add
clickable links to your channel
art. “Custom links” provides back-links
to websites, or squeeze pages of
your choice. Remember you need to
use every opportunity that is
available to get people to sign up on your
list.
As you can see below, Google+ has
already been added for you, but
there are a number of additional
social sharing sites which can be
added such as Facebook, and
Twitter. Once you have decided which
ones to add, you will need to
copy and paste your personal urls into the
appropriate space.
Once again, Don't forget to save
by clicking on the “Done” button.
STEP 13
If you have several other
channels and you wish to make your viewers
aware of , then you might well
wish to feature those channels on this
channel as well.
All you need to do is copy and
paste the channel url in the “Enter
channel url” space. By clicking
on the “Add” button, you can insert
additional urls.
One you have finished, click
“done”.
STEP 14
If you are planning on
subscribing to other channels and particularly if
those channels are competitors
that you wish to keep an eye on, then
you need to keep your
subscriptions private.
On the other hand, if you will be
subscribing to other channels you own
or to channels with related but
not competing information, then it would
be a good idea to un-tick the box
and make the subscriptions public.
STEP 15
Most people forget about this
part of their channel. You need to get
people talking. Start by
commenting yourself. Ask a couple of friends
(they must also have a YouTube
channel and be logged in) to respond.
This is another opportunity to
encourage people to go to your Squeeze
page. Add the link.
STEP 16
A small but important set of
steps is to choose the language you will be
using/targeting e.g. French,
German etc; the specific country you are
targeting or whether your channel
and videos should be available
worldwide; and whether your
Channel will be using safe content for all
(in which case switch safety to
“on”). There are some unpleasant people
around who delight in using
unpleasant language and this will protect
your channel from them.
Congratulations you have now
completed the set up and SEO for Your
Channel
STEP 17
One final bit of information to
those of you who are totally new to
YouTube and are not sure how to
find your way around. Just click on
the little downward pointing
arrow on the top right corner of your
channel next to your image. This
will bring down the master links, as
shown in blue.
