"Ooh, it's shiny!" We all like shiny things, and that's especially true for anyone searching for something on Youtube.

Upon creating your Youtube Channel, it's going to be....blank. Let's fill in some stuff and make your channel look shinier!

1. If you linked your Youtube Account to your Gmail account, click on the icon in the left hand corner where the "channel art" is, and go to G+ and fill out your information if missing. (they create a new page for you to describe.)
   
2. Add some channel art appropriate to your niche. (Note: The channel art has to be somewhere around 2200 x 1100 pixels. I KNOW THAT IS HUGE!!! If you find an image you like, you can upsize it on Google, just type it enlarge jpeg or whatever, but it may be sort of pixelated...just keep this in mind.)
3. Click on the About tab, and edit your description there. Make sure it's simple, but thorough. You want to give people as much information about your channel as you can, but not enough to put them to sleep.
4. Add and organize your videos (we'll talk about that more in the next section).
5. For multiple channels, start back at 1. rinse and repeat.

Having a nice, clean description, and a good layout will attract people to your Youtube Channel, which will increase your traffic to your videos. In the next part of this tutorial, we'll talk briefly about how to add videos to your account.
