Starting a YouTube channel in Kenya is one of the easiest ways to make money, but it’s also relatively new. So if you are thinking about starting your YouTuber career, here are some steps for beginners.
You can watch and like videos and subscribe to channels with a Google Account. But without a YouTube channel, you have no public presence on YouTube. Even if you have a Google Account, you need to create a YouTube channel to upload videos, comment, or make playlists. You can create your channel on either the YouTube website or the YouTube mobile site.
YouTube gives creators flexibility so that you can get started filming, sharing and finding your fandoms depending on the way you like to create.

Ok, so you’ve created amazing content. Now what? Here are some next steps for posting your videos, getting your first viewers, and planning ahead for how to grow your audience.
Upload in YouTube Studio
Creator Studio is home base for creators. This is where you’ll post, add metadata, pull analytics, get messages from YouTube, and more. It’s also where you can track your progress towards eligibility in the YouTube Partner Programme (YPP).
Use the Studio mobile app to manage your channel on the go. It’s useful for things like checking your stats, responding to comments, and publishing and managing your videos from your phone.
Organise and create playlists
Once you upload, you can create playlists to guide your viewers through your videos and get to know your channel. Sort by format, date posted and more. Hint: Playlists can help with analytics down the road, too.
Check to see how your video is doing
YouTube Analytics (YTA) shows you the data behind your channel. Analytics can help you make sense of trends, see what’s working (and what’s not), and understand who’s watching your content so that you can plan how you post in the future.
