[00:03] views, and estimated earnings exceeding €1,000, you want to learn how to start a gaming channel and begin gaining views, an audience, profits, subscribers, and all that? Follow along with this episode! The best and most amazing guys and girls in the world, welcome to a new episode with me! As a

[00:18] gaming content creator on YouTube, I decided to make this episode to help all the newcomers or those just starting out in the YouTube field. But the most important thing for me before you join me in this YouTube talk is that you yourself want to help yourself and have the patience and

[00:30] determination that will make you succeed on YouTube or any other field in your life. So if you're sure you have these two things—patience and determination— leave the rest to God and me, and God willing, this episode will put you on the first path to success on YouTube in the gaming field. All I

[00:44] ask of you is to send blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him. So, pay close attention in this episode, and let's talk about the tools you need to start a gaming YouTube channel. The first thing you'll need to get started on YouTube is

[00:57] recording software. Here, you have three free and very professional options that will help you start recording on your computer professionally and give you excellent results. For example, there's OPS Studio, which I'm using to record this episode, as you can see.

[01:11] I recommend this program first and foremost because it's specifically designed for screen recording and is used by almost all YouTubers. The second program we'll discuss today is StreamLabs OPS. This program will be useful if you want to record or go live on

[01:25] any platform, as it's developed by the same company that created OPS, which we discussed earlier. However, the developers of StreamLabs have created a version of it. This is designed for people who want to stream on all platforms. If

[01:40] you want to start your journey as a streamer, you must download the StreamLabs app. The third free option to record your screen is your graphics card's built-in recording software. Every graphics card comes with a built-in recording feature, so you can rely on your graphics card

[01:54] if you don't want to use any external programs to record your screen and games. These are the three best free and professional programs you can rely on for screen recording. After the screen recording stage, we come to the important stage, which is editing. Here,

[02:09] whether you are a beginner who wants to do professional editing or a professional who wants to save time on editing, I recommend one program: CapCat. CapCat is one of the easiest free and professional editing programs that will help you produce

[02:22] very professional work with very, very little effort. The biggest proof of what I'm saying is what I'm using in this episode. These are all the essential programs. This is what you need to start producing unique content for your YouTube channel. However, the unique content you've produced

[02:36] requires you to know how to reach the audience interested in it on YouTube. For example, you should n't make a video about PUBG Mobile, only to have it end up being

[02:50] interested in food or news because of some settings on your YouTube channel. This is precisely the mistake that all beginner content creators make. So, let's learn together all the secrets of creating gaming channels on YouTube and how to adjust all the channel settings correctly in a way that forces YouTube to suggest

[03:05] everything I'm talking about will ultimately get you the views you need to gain subscribers, and hopefully, you'll then activate your channel and start earning money from it. Let's simplify it for you since we're talking about the secrets of creating gaming channels. Regarding the channel name, you must

[03:20] choose a name that's no more than four letters long so it's easy to remember. Your audience needs to remember your channel name. After that name, write one of the words that will appear on your screen now. This is to indicate to viewers what interests you share on your channel.

[03:34] If they have the same interests and like you as a content creator, they will subscribe to your channel and might even offer you financial support if they like your content. After the channel name, ask yourself if you will be posting about a specific game or talking about games or gaming in general. This will help

[03:49] you adjust your channel settings to suit the content you will be posting on YouTube. This is a new channel I created to teach you how to use it. Click here, then scroll down to YouTube Studio and click on it like this. You will then go to the settings section

[04:03] here. Scroll down and click on Channel. Leave this page open and go to the website. The link to the tags and all the other links are in the description below. Once the website opens, you will... Click on the "Use Tag Generator" button like this and pause there. Then ask

[04:17] yourself the same question: Will I post about all games, or will I post about a specific game? In either case, you won't tell me your answer; you'll tell the website. Write your answer here. For example, if I'm going to open a gaming channel and talk about games in general, I'll type the word "

[04:30] games" here and press Enter like this. These are the keywords with high search volume that I should use in the field we've discussed here on the channel. You can also take these keywords and use them for the videos you'll start your channel with because these topics

[04:44] have high search volume. Now, if I open a channel and don't talk about games in general, but about a specific game, let's say PUBG Mobile, then the website will bring me all the keywords with high search volume that I must use

[04:58] in the field we've opened here. That's why, after you define the main niche you're aiming for... You'll work on it and then get the keywords from here. Copy them like this and go back to YouTube Studio. Scroll down to the " Main Keywords" section here and start

[05:11] typing what I'm about to tell you. First, type the four keywords I mentioned earlier and choose one for your channel name. Then, using your keyboard, press Ctrl+ on the keywords we copied earlier. They'll appear here. If a

[05:25] red box appears, you've exceeded the character limit. I set it to six characters, so you can remove any of them. As you can see, the keywords worked for me. Click "Save" here. If you've made it this far, please don't forget to

[05:39] support us with a free like so I can continue publishing meaningful content on YouTube. Now, I want you to know a few simple secrets you should implement when uploading any new video to your channel. This is because Let's continue with the process of targeting the right audience on YouTube. First, you

[05:53] need to write a unique title and include keywords with high search volume. Here, you can return to the Link Tags website with each video you upload to your channel to provide the main topic of the video. It will then suggest suitable keywords. For example, if I'm making an episode about

[06:08] gameplay in PUBG Mobile, I would go here and type " PUBG Mobile gameplay" and press Enter. This will provide all the keywords I can use in the title, description, and also the keywords so that my video appears to the audience interested in what I'm uploading. Once

[06:22] you know how to come up with the title and how to write the description, scroll down further and click on "Show More" (like this). Then scroll down a little further to the tags you see. These tags are the ones the website has provided. Click

[06:37] on "Copy Tags," then go back here and press Ctrl+F to copy the tags or keywords. I want you to scroll down a bit to a box labeled "Category" like this. Click on this arrow and select "Games" as

[06:52] you can see here. Now, because I can't see it, it's "Video Games." You'll select " Video Games" like this, and then in this box, pause and start typing the name of the game you play. For example, I play PUBG Mobile, so I'll type "PUBG," and a list will appear. At the

[07:05] beginning, I'll see "PUBG Mobile," "PUBG Regular," "PUBG Mobile India," and so on. I choose the version I play or the one I'm featuring in this video. I'll select " PUBG Mobile" from here, and that's it. You're ready to publish your video and share it with

[07:19] everyone. Look, my friend, I know you like the video and maybe you don't want it to end. This is because of two things: first, the useful information it contains, and second, the editing. There are a number of editing secrets that, if I tell you and you learn them and add them to your work, and your work is distinctive, you'll guarantee that you'll stand out.

[07:34] This is a trend in your work, and because explaining it would take too long, I'll explain it to you in the second part of this series if this video reaches 1000 likes. Also, if you want me to personally optimize your channel's SEO and settings and create a complete plan for you to follow for a month to start getting views

[07:48] and achieving your watch hours, I offer all of this to subscribers in the channel's technical support package. Most importantly, don't forget to like this episode and share it if you think I've provided you with truly valuable content. Also, 51% of the respectable people who regularly watch the channel aren't even subscribed.

[08:02] If these people subscribed, the channel would be in a much better position on YouTube, so don't forget to subscribe if you want to support us and also to help reduce this percentage. See you in the next episode, and peace, mercy, and blessings of God be upon you.
