YouTube Thursdays - Channel Trailers 

 

 

We've been working on Channel Trailers the last several weeks. In case you missed the posts, here they are for reference. 

 

Creating a Channel Trailer 

The Value of a YouTube Channel Trailer 

 

To quickly summarize, this prominently positioned video introduces new visitors to your YouTube Channel. You want to make sure you give the viewers a call to action, "Please subscribe," and tease them with with a couple of video examples.  I'll show you how to do that next week.  This week, here's how to add a Trailer to your channel.

As always, please take a minute or two to subscribe to one another's YouTube channels, and like, or leave a comment when you can. Every little bit helps build your channel credibility. Feel free to add your own YouTube Channel below, and if you have a channel trailer, we'd love to see it. Be sure to leave a link.

ViewHomes™ grew out of our passion for nature, beautiful surroundings, and peaceful environments. Starting together in an urban environment, over the years we've gravitated towards areas with smaller populations and less density. We now enjoy our lifestyle in a rural environment, but with close proximity to metropolitan areas where we appreciate all the amenities of fine restaurants, shopping, and an easy drive to an international airport.
Living in ViewHomes™ is like having “elbowroom for the soul”.

Well, I don't have a youtube channel video, sorry to say. I probably have a channel as I've uploaded a few videos but I wouldn't really know. That's how completely ignorant I am about videos.

Debb and Bernie, you are so generous sharing your expertise and I have learned a ton from you. I really look forward to your posts every week. We've had 2 weeks of rain and that's put a damper on getting our trailer done, I'm hoping next week it will happen. Just purchased my first gimbal and it's been fun to learn how to use it. Thank you so much for the mention of my channel. Motivation to keep the content flowing :)
