Good morniing Gillian. Love your videos. I am starting my channel. One of them has over 700 views. When I look that particular one up, there is a commercial ahead of it. I didn't do that, so did YouTube attach it and are they making money off my video? Thank you.

Thank you
Hi Gillian Perkins, I do have an idea, it's a combination of something I want do for myself while making it entertaining though also helping others – ah, listening to you and yes, it's about me and a topic. lol Thanks! I will say right now to get started I'd like to use my own photos etc. Don't mean to be all secretive, the topic is music : ) My mate, he's happy just putting on his songs that he writes himself, he's put up only 2, he's not like me in wanting a real ongoing channel.
And yes I know I've chosen, I think, the most type of topic, music and singing that comes in all shapes and sizes….::sigh:: Congrats on your channel, your space looks wonderful. 


I started my channel in 2018. I didn't really work on it until the start of the pandemic. Still trying to figure out what I want to do with this channel.
Your amazing person and super intelligent
Good luck who else starting new channel

Thx I really appreciate this is helpful thx again
Thank you!
how did you make youtube grow
Gillian, thank you for your videos. They are well-done and highly informative. It was perhaps 6 years ago I set up a YouTube channel called “WayneVA1” to communicate with others my passion for Jesus Christ who changed my life for the better in 1974. I intend to soon start a new YouTube Channel (probably called Wayne V. Amelung) with a more precise focus targeting mostly fellow Christians for encouragement and support. My previous channel was more of a hobby. The upcoming channel I hope to make into a new retirement career. When I start the new channel soon (this is 01.03.21), I will post a video on the older channel to inform others of the new channel. Thanks again for all your work. Keep it up & best wishes.
Hi Gillian! I really enjoyed watching your video on how to get started. Also click on your site below for further instruction. This is something I would like to venture into. Let’s hope I can learn from you. Keep you posted! Thanks
Cool
“When you first start your channel no one is going to be watching anyway” Surprisingly comforting.

To everyone here who's starting their YouTube channel, let's grow together this 2021.
My cuz. wants me to set up a Youtube channel. He is a licensed therapist. I don't want his channel to tag into mine. So how is that done? What info do I need for him? Thx.
