When it comes to our websites I know every Blogger takes a lot of time to have their site be a direct reflection of who they are. After all our sites are usually the first impressions someone gets of us as a writer and even as a brand. Yet, did you know there is a way to extend your site even further? YouTube is an often forgotten and neglected tool but I want to show you how to put the YOU in YoTube in 9 steps. That’s right you can personalize your presence in this fast growing area of Social Media in 9 steps.
Name Your Channel
Of course the very first step is creating and naming your channel. When you select a name for your YouTube Channel be sure you are consistent. Having your brand recognizable and known across all of your social media relies strongly on making it easy to find. Also, we all know that as a standard your YouTube URL is assigned that series of numbers but changing that to a Custom URL will not only make it easier for sharing and viewers to recognize and connect with your site.

I don’t use You Tube much, but these look like great tips. Maybe I should try it more often. I didn’t know about the NC Blogger Network. I live just south of Raleigh and would love to connect.
Allison Barrett Carter says

FabEllis says
Great list! It’s easier for me to write blog posts, but I’ve found that YouTube is an awesome tool to use.
Allison Barrett Carter says
FabEllis- I am one of those bloggers that finds writing way easier, more efficient, and quicker than vlogging. I think we are two peas in a pod!
