Youtube: How to set up your channel in a new design
YouTube recently launched a new channel design. We present the four most important innovations here.
1. Channel trailer for non-subscribers
The new design makes it possible to automatically play a video of your choice as soon as viewers visit your channel without a subscription. You can then play an info trailer for this user group, in which you can illustrate what your channel is about. This may help convince some viewers to subscribe to your channel.
2. Uniform channel design on all end devices
No matter whether on the PC, notebook, smartphone or tablet: Your YouTube channel now has a uniform design on all devices. So there are no more problems like incorrectly displayed pictures and fonts. Everything is automatically adjusted to the respective screen size.
3. Sort videos in the channel more clearly
Presenting your videos is now much easier. With multiple layouts for videos and playlists, you can get the most out of your clips. On the start page of your channel you can, for example, attach a playlist of your latest videos. You can also create a playlist from several video clips arranged in any order.
4. External links directly in the image of the channel
You can now also insert links to social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, Google+, etc. into your channel picture. Other links are also possible. For example, you can refer to your second YouTube channel or your homepage.
You can get more detailed information here. You can also activate OneChannel there, if it is not already the case for you. YouTube will then explain the most important innovations in a small tutorial.
