How To Set Up A YouTube Channel or YouTube Account

[LazyChill720]

how do u choose ur channel type

[aaronsdecker]

@LazyChill720 I would do a google search as my video is over a year old.

[arifirfanullah]

thanks aaron.  any tips on using the current version of youtube. there seem to be a lot more constraints now. by the way, do we need double quotes around our tags?

[aaronsdecker]

@arifirfanullah Your welcome, I would recommend looking for a newer video on how to set up a youtube channel. I would, but make sure to look at your keywords after you put them in like that and see if they are showing up like you want them to.

[arifirfanullah]

when i go to 'settings' i don't see all the options that you show on the video. has this changed since your video was created?

[aaronsdecker]

@arifirfanullah YouTube has changed since I made this video.

How do I change my age ??

[aaronsdecker]

@BlaringSnake40 Just looked, not sure. I would google that question or look on yahoo answers.

[gdancoleman]

How do I create multiple channels under my username? I have a bunch of clients and I'd love to create a unique channel for each one under my username. Is that possible?

[aaronsdecker]

@gdancoleman You are going to have to create separate channels for your clients

[sandymanuwoto]

[aaronsdecker]

@sandymanuwoto Thanks

[Slayerofallthatsknow]

I need help it keeps saying that i need to do something with copyright notices

[aaronsdecker]

@Slayerofallthatsknow i would recommend copyright tab on the bottom of every page on youtube.

[PaulParky]

Hi I just set up a channel on YouTube and I used Aarons video tutorials to do so. Thanks Aaron.

[aaronsdecker]

@PaulParky Your welcome Paul, thanks for subscribing to my channel too

[VanMaanen41]

how do you make were it says your name it says like subscribe or something

[aaronsdecker]

@VanMaanen41 You have to be a YouTube partner. AKA you have to have a ton of views on your videos and have a lot of subscribers

[VanMaanen41]

Ewww...Ohio State Buckeyes...

[82celinedion82]

Can't get a title to stick even after I type it in the box and hit save changes. Also can't get a subscribe button next to my profile picture. Any suggestions? Thank you!

[eBestEnergyDrink]

@82celinedion82 The title of your channel? It might be to long. Not sure on what to do for the subscribe button. I just looked at your channel and you have a subscribe link there.

[82celinedion82]

@82celinedion82 Thank you much!

[myfreshideas]

aaron - I already have a channel but want to change the name as i started this years ago and the name has changed. I opened a new gmail account but it takes me right to my channel on this computer. How do I do this?

[aaronsdecker]

@myfreshideas You can't change your name as in I can't change youtubeDOTcom/aaronsdecker to anything else it is there for good. Not sure what might be the issue sounds like a cookie issue with your browser. Hope this helps

[yoganidrauser]

@aaronsdecker I also want to be able to change my user name. Is there anyway to do this. Can I set up a different account and use a different name?

[aaronsdecker]

@yoganidrauser You will have to create a new account.

[BarttheFutureKid]

@myfreshideas I am having the same problem. I have no idea what to do.

[xXclarkeyboy11Xx]

Thanks



[aaronsdecker]

@xXclarkeyboy11Xx Your welcome

[AlienEkanet]

Sorry for my bad english... But how to change information in the field above "about myself"? i can't find it in settings =(

[aaronsdecker]

@AlienEkanet Go to your youtube channel and you will be able to click on edit half way down the screen on the left and when you do you will be able to edit your about me section. Hope this helps if not write me back

[AlienEkanet]

@aaronsdecker

Thanks :)

[aaronsdecker]

[aaronsdecker]

@christhecool1990 Your welcome

[breadmker347]

How do you customize or upload themes to your channel?

[aaronsdecker]

@breadmker347 I would google how to customize a youtrube channel. The way you upload a background is to go to your channel and click on "theme and colors" then click on show advanced options there you will find how to upload your background

[dnice1mil]

do i have to create a new you tube account

[aaronsdecker]

@dnice1mil What exactly is your question? If you have a YouTube account then no. But you want to read YouTube guidelines if you plan on having more than 1 YouTube account.

[Vakxety]

you dont need a gmail email. i made this account a couple of days ago and i used my AOL email

[aaronsdecker]

@Vakxety OK thanks, I did not know that. It is a good idea to have a gmail though.

[MrWeclaw8]

I forgot how to put my photo as a background like i did last time. How do i set up my background as a photo layout on youtube?

[aaronsdecker]

@MrWeclaw8 You will want to sign in to your account and then in the top right click on your username and choose My channel. From there you will want to select Themes and Colors and then a bunch of different color options will come up below them you should see New theme and when that opens you can upload a image from there. Hope this helps, if not let me know.
