Vloging and Creating YouTube Channel Step 3
3) Decide the Name.
This is one of the most important steps when it comes to creating a YouTube channel. Deciding
your channel name! You can either use your name by default or you can choose a different name of
your choice by clicking on the “To use a business or other name, click here” button. Most people
like to choose a different name instead of using their own names.

Vloging ContinuedYou want the name to represent and explain what your YouTube channel is about. For example,
if you wanted to vlog about the latest fashion trends, you could pick a name like, “Fashion
Trends Today” or “Carly’s Fashion Picks”. You get the point! Choose a name that describes
your channel. After deciding on a name, fill in the required fields below and be sure to read
over the page terms before selecting, “I Agree”. Once you finish filling in the information
required, click on, “Done”.

Take the YouTube Channel TourOnce you finish the naming process, you are taken to your channel page. You may also see an option at the top right of your page that invites you to take a tour of your new channel. It’s quick and it helps you get familiar with different options for editing your channel.

Edit YouTube Account Settings
In order to edit your account settings, you must go back to the drop down menu by clicking on the downwards arrow and then select, “YouTube Settings”.

Creating a Custom YouTube URL.▪It’s always great to have a custom YouTube URL instead of a default one. For example, your
YouTube channel url may be “www.YouTube.com/user/blahblah8920128h0hd0dn0–9” etc. Instead, you can have a custom url for your channel that is branded. It can be “www.YouTube.com/user/YourChannelName”
▪ This can be of great help when it comes to promoting your channel and your students work. It is something that others can remember more easily.
▪ So let’s create a custom URL for your YouTube channel. After reaching the YouTube settings page, click on the, “Advanced” button.

What is a blog?The word ‘blog’ is short for web log. Blogs generally have the following features:
● They are updated regularly ● They consist of a collection of posts● Each post has a date● The newest posts appear at the top of the page● A blog can be very much like an online diary. Indeed, one of the most popular
blogs on the internet is called The Diary of Samuel Pepys. On this blog, anew entry from Samuel Pepys’s Diary appears every day.

Blogs don’t need to be written from a personal perspective.
