Hello Warriors,

  2. Customizing Your YouTube Channel
  3. Creating Playlists
  4. Setting Up Your Channel
  5. Introduction To YouTube SEO
In this lesson we are going to be customizing Your YouTube Channel. Now I am debating as I write this lesson, if I will do a video with it or just use screenshots. Well stick around and see what I come up with.

Why Do You Want To Customize Your Channel Anyway?

Well there are several reasons why. One reason is that when visitors arrive to your page you want them to experience have set in place for them.

Let me explain!

Let's say that you have a car racing shop. When visitors are on your channel, then you want to present an atmosphere as if they were at your shop. So you would probably have a white and black checkered flag, on top of a red and black background.

You may even want to customize it to where when someone comes to your channel, you display the video that you want to start when they arrive.

Whatever it is, it should SHOUT what you do.

Now with the business.

Obviously, you need to be logged in to your YouTube account. If not you need to log in.

Once logged in. You need to navigate to the upper right hand corner of the page. Once there you will see a gravatar with your profile picture or a default one.

From here you will click the dropdown that is there and it reveal these choices:
  • My Channel
  • Video Manager
  • Subscriptions
  • Inbox
  • Settings
  • Sign out
"My Channel" is what you want to click.

After you have clicked onto the 'My Channel' link, it will take you to your youtube channel.

Ok, now we have reached the fun part. In this section of the lesson we will touch on different components and the feature they add to your channel.

First lets hit the settings feature. The "Themes and Colors" tab. This tab allows you to change your background colors, link colors, font colors and some other junk.

Essentially what you would do is click that tab and it will reveal the options available for customization.

Ok, that brings us to the end of this lesson on themes and colors for your channel. What you would want to do now is go ahead and start playing around and see what you can come up with.

Congratulations, you have just learned how to customize your YouTube channel.

Until next time... God Bless you and have fun with what you are doing.
