Getting Started with YouTube 
Before you can start uploading videos to YouTube, the first thing you need to do is create an
account. When you create an account on YouTube a ‘channel’ is automatically created for you.
A channel is a place where you can group your videos together. The advantages of having a
channel are:
• Videos are grouped together in one place
• You can create a profile for yourself and link back to your company
• You are creating a mini website, and as you add videos it will become more and more
interesting for people.
Create an Account
Go to www.youtube.com and select the Create Account option in the top right hand corner of
the screen. As YouTube is a Google service you will need to create a Google account. Once you
have done this you are returned to YouTube where you are logged in using your new
Google
Account.
The first thing you need to do is create your Username and Channel. It’s important to pick a good
username as this will be the name of your channel and therefore will form part of your web
address, e.g. www.youtube.com/
. As this will be an account for your business you
should use the name of your business as the username.
To do this, click on the person icon in the top right hand corner of the screen, as shown. This will
display some options. Click My channel.
Customise your Channel to Match your Brand
When you first login to YouTube after creating your account you are taken to your YouTube Home
page, which lists details such as Recent Activity, Subscriptions and your YouTube Inbox.
But let’s look at what other people will see by going to your YouTube Channel. To go to your
channel click on your username in the top right hand corner of the screen, as shown, or click on
the My Channel link on the left.
You are now brought to your channel page, which at the moment looks a bit plain. YouTube
enables you to brand and customise your channel by changing the background and choosing an
avatar.
The following example shows
you what a branded channel
looks like. You can place
whatever image you want in
the background surrounding
the channel so it is important
to put in something that
matches up with your brand
(e.g. correct colours, logo,
and so on).
