If you are planning to be a Youtuber or content creator using Youtube, you must know the fundamentals or the basic of creating a video.
I am still a newbie in creating videos on Youtube but I have a great faith that there is a great reward for those who believe. That is the reason why I started to create my own channel and of course my Facebook page.
This will be a good start to extend and to share all the knowledge and wisdom that I acquire in my life. I want to share the learnings I gain in life, in technology, in using Youtube, and in marketing.
When I started my channel, I do not have much viewers or subscribers. I just come up with ideas along the way. Well, everyday even if I do not have a master plan, I got new ideas and content to share.
As a Vlogger, Youtuber or content creator you must know some effective ways to consider as your start your channel and earn for a living. With that, I created the top 10 ways to start your Youtube channel or possibly your Youtube career below.
10 Ways to Consider in Starting Your Youtube Channel
1.) Turn on your Camera. Camera is an important tool for you to start. Initially you can use your smart phone or any phone with camera that you can consider helpful as you start your journey to be one of the famous Youtuber in your country. There is no rule when you start and use whatever camera you have. The most important is your video content.
2.) Choose The Most Available Software Video Editor. Because you are just starting, disregard the paid software first. You can use whatever software editor you have like iMovie, Windows Movie Maker and the likes. As long as you have what it takes to teach, to entertain and to inspire others, software is not a big deal. Moreover, there are many free software available for Android and iOS phones, you can try to search online which one is easier to use. Whatever software it is, just shoot and edit the simplest and the most effective way.
3.) Choose the Right Niche. Initially, I do not have any niche on my vlog. What I did is to experiment and try to shoot some questions from our fellow human being there where I can answer on my Youtube channel. If I learn new things, then I share it. Most of the most viewed videos I have is more on “How To”. So, I decided to have an informative video where I got subscribers and views everyday.
4.) Have a Creative Thumbnail. Thumbnail is so important. It is the number one thing you should consider, understand and study. Creativity is a key to make your thumbnail meaningful and to make your video more appealing to your audience. It is the first thing that will make your audience be more attractive to your channel. You can consider Canva software for free of use when creating thumbnail. There are wide variety of templates available already. Click HERE to create your free Canva account. Everything you need in creating thumbnail on your video is there already.
5.) Have a Quality Time. Give time when you decided to start this exciting job on Youtube. It is so exciting to express yourself on video; so, do not be shy. To be able for you to win, you need to start, improve and be consistent when you upload your videos. Make it a habit to have a quality time for your videos.
6.) Create a Quality Content. For me quality comes from authenticity. Sometimes, too much quality will sabotage your creativity. Just improve your content everyday because along the way, you will learn something on how you can improve the quality of your video you produce.
7.) Create a Series. Creating a series is a way to make your audience to come back to your channel. If you cannot do this, it’s Ok. Just continue your journey until such time you become a professional content creator and you can create series that will make your audience be more hook to your videos.
8.) Consider the Video Length. Length of video is important. A 10-minute video is very effective video length if you want to earn more. But still focus on the content and how you can help or entertain your audience. That is the most important.
9.) Be Unique. You are a unique person. You have something to show to the world. Nothing to do with your authentic self. The more authentic you are the better. Meaning you are the only diamond among the pebbles and the stones. One piece of advice to you is to do not copy others; just be yourself and everything will follow.
10.) Know Your Purpose. Know your big “WHY”. That is how you can be genuine with others. Your “WHY” will give you the reason to continue with what you started. It should be the primary reason why you choose to be a Content Creator. That is how you can show to the world what you have. Possibly you can solve some problems in the world or you can be the first millionaire in your community or in your family by helping other people with their problems.
As a new Youtuber the best thing you can do is to enjoy. You can be a good story teller, a good entertainer, a good trivia stints, or a good influencer or you can be the best. The most important thing is you have fun. Big earnings and being famous is just a bonus. Being happy along the way to success will give you enormous success.
