Maybe you’re looking to become a YouTube sensation with your next video or simply want to share your insights or expertise with the world. Perhaps you’d even like to use YouTube and video to help your business, which could be a local coffee shop or a Fortune 500 company. Maybe YouTube can actually be your business.

And with the tips and techniques included in this edition of YouTube Channels For Dummies, you’ll be ready to take full advantage of YouTube’s user-friendly platform when creating your very own YouTube channel.

YouTube started off years ago as a simple video sharing site, ultimately going on to change the entertainment business and so much more. In many ways, it democratized creators and viewers, ultimately influencing how products were marketed, sold, and used. YouTube globalized the viewing experience, reinventing how ­people experience video content. Any viewer who wants to see any video ­anywhere in the world only has to type www.youtube.com into their favorite browser or bring up the YouTube app on their mobile phone.

Let’s not forget that YouTube became one of the largest search engines in the world as well. Businesses started using videos to launch and support products all while bring a human face to the company. We also witnessed the rise of YouTube influencers, savvy participants who were often better connected to a company’s audience than the business itself. They set the tone.

As easy as it is for a viewer to take full advantage of YouTube, it’s almost as easy for a contributor to become part of the YouTube mix. After setting up an account, it’s a snap to start uploading videos. And, if the videos you’re uploading take off, you could become famous and even earn a good chunk of change from your ­YouTube exploits.
