I like hearing people's stories behind their usernames. If I had intended to do a cooking show from the start, I would have a different name for sure. lol. Great advice. Consistency, passion and great content. If you are nervous in front of the camera, but are wanting to do this... just do it. You'll get comfortable in time. Follow your passion, make some friends and have fun!
yeah .... well ... I already put numbers in my name, but where Im coming from people will remember "4711" like they would remember "0815" ... its the sames as people in Australia will recognise "XXXX" ... however I can#t cahnge it now can I ? But honestly: I put up videos and I don't think about getting a massive amount of subscribers or get money for my videos. I just do them for fun and if people watch em: good! ... well ... can't change the name now anyway ... (^_^)
Well said, Kevin! I'm just glad that I picked out a great username right out of the gate lol!
I'd also like to add that answering questions & how-to videos are also a great way to get things going on YouTube! I have a very popular series on my channel called NFAQs where I answer questions about the US Navy. I haven't done a new video for it in awhile, but I'm gonna start it back up very soon.
I wish I could change my username, I've had it since 7th grade, way before youtube, and I now that I am an out of college adult, I do wish I could change it easily.
I wish so so so much I could change my name on Youtube. =(
If I had realized that earlier I would have started over, but it's too late now because of my subs and collaborations.
I always try to make once a week but right now I have to scale back, which I hate because I just got a lot of new subs and also I can get payed for ads now. T_T But I don't put ads on every video.
@ericsurf6 YES! Listen to the Surf 6. Shots, content, editing and make sure people can HEAR you. Mr. EricSurf6 does all this, his videos are easy to watch and they move, very good video maker.
Kevin never been to Busan, been to Pusan and Osan and green street.

@ericsurf6 I think with Youtube you have to find a good balance between the two.
