 KYC number eight only the good channels. KYC is know your channel, but we go over tips to help keep your channel safe so you don't get YPP suspended or terminated. Normally we talk about bad things, not to do. Today we talk about good things to do. Let's go. What's good about this channel behind me? Rainimator with 534,000 subscribers. He creates Minecraft animations using commercial music. Let me play a clip. Roll it. So that sounds like commercial music and it is. It's by Blacklight District and he credits them right at the beginning of his video right here and he credits them in his description right here. And I'm not saying you need to pay a royalty for every music you use in your videos, but do it with permission and whatever that permission looks like get it in writing. Here's another example. In this video. In this case he got permission from Music Factory, our very own. See? Film score by Music Factory. And of course we gave him full permission to use it in this video. Get permission guys, get it in writing and be a good channel like Rainimator. What about TGN24 behind me? What's good about this channel? So this one is obviously not in English, but let me play a clip. So you get the idea. It's a news channel and he's using photos which you might think, wait isn't the photo copyright, that's Putin. That's Putin, the president of Russia. It's okay to use photos as fair use as long as you're adding transformative work like commentary for news and that is okay. Here's another video and you can see their intro. So I like what he's doing. He's reminding you to subscribe. He's using his channel's branding in the video and he's showing relevant footage to illustrate his commentary. What some news channels do badly is they use a text-to-speech synthesizer, a robotic voice on its own. That's okay, but not if it's reading someone else's writing. I've seen news channels that do plagiarism. They copy news articles from the web and simply make a video by using this text-to-speech human synthesizer to make videos very quickly and rapidly. Don't do that. If you're going to use a text-to-speech synthesizer, write your own text. Don't copy someone else's. What's good about this channel behind me? At first glance, it looks like it could be a bad actor. It looks like they're using framing, putting TV footage into a frame. Let's play a clip. Looks like framing to be, guys. But in fact, when we looked at the channel's about page, we discovered something interesting. They are the official YouTube channel of Adyours, which is a Bangladeshi production house. We googled it, we looked up the info, and it turns out they are legit. So of course, if you're the official source of videos like this, that's great. But tell us, give us the context. If the about page wasn't clear and we couldn't confirm it by googling or even contacting the channel owner, then of course we would think this is framing and we would unlink the channel. But as it turns out, it is the official source of all these TV productions. So good job, guys. You're an awesome channel. What's good about BearTalks, this channel behind me? He's got great branding. He's got interesting thumbnails, very colorful. And it is a good channel, but there is one thing that everyone needs to learn from. And that is in the metadata description, the video description. Look down, look down, see tags. I'm assuming it says please ignore tags in a non-English language. Guys, this is actually something bad. If you're doing this, stop it and here's why. Here is the official YouTube help article behind me talking about best practices for metadata. Don't use misleading metadata. Don't put tags in descriptions, tag stuffing, which we just saw. Tags are single words or short phrases meant to help categorize your video. Thoughtful use of tags can help users find your video through search engine optimization. YouTube gives you an opportunity to include these tags, to include these in the tags section of your upload. This is the only place you should put them. Tags are not meant to be placed in the description. Placing tags in your description is called tag stuffing, and this may cause your video to be removed, and eventually your channel to be suspended or even terminated. Guys, it's right here, black and white in YouTube help. If you decide to ignore this, and by the way, the link to all this is down there in the description below if you want to read it for yourself. If you decide to ignore this, what can we do? We all can only say we told you so when something bad happens to your channel. So please, if you have a good channel, like BearTalks behind me, don't resort to tag stuffing. I would hate to see all this hard work go to waste if this channel is terminated for that reason.

These few channels I covered talked about permission mostly, but also about context. Make sure you communicate the context. Do you make parodies? Put parody in your title. Make it clear in your description that this is a parody. If we or YouTube mistakenly thinks your videos are copies of the original, then they may give you an abuse event like a suspension or termination. If you're making a backup channel, like you have too many videos on one channel, or you want to categorize your videos on a second channel, make sure you identify it as a backup channel, because we've seen channels get YPP suspended. And when we ask YouTube, what's wrong with this channel? They say, well because it's a duplication. Duplication is an abuse event. And when we explain to YouTube, but this is a backup channel, here is proof that it's the same owner as this channel, then they recover the channel. But they didn't understand the context, and we went through a bit of pain and uncertainty because we had a lack of that context communicated on that backup channel. So clearly identify what the purpose of your channel is. People at YouTube do actually read these things. There are human beings that make decisions, not just algorithms at YouTube. And of course, we can help escalate when there is a misunderstanding through our own direct YouTube support team. And to access that, just email support at freedom.tm. I got it right that time.
