Here is all and most of the work started. It is important to identify and attract the right audience for your channel. It becomes your business to understand what your viewers want to watch. If you know what your viewers want, that becomes easier for you to make it. Most people come to watch YouTube videos because they want a solution to their question; maybe it is a teenager, a business owner, or a casual viewer.

You must have a good tone of speaking that is if you make business videos then you might use a professional tone .

8.  Invest in basic equipment 

You do not need to invest much as it is optional you can simply start to work with whatever equipment that you have, but here are a few things that I like to suggest to you if you have a budget 
For the camera; the best option would be to use your mobile or any budget-friendly camera that you can get; tip if you are using a mobile phone, record in 1080p or 4k for high-quality videos.
Microphone: shoot in a quiet place, or you can use a pop filter to remove the background noise.
Lighting: it is important to have good lighting where you are filming that makes your videos look professional; if you are shooting in a studio, try using some extra light or colour lights, as proper lighting makes your video look expensive - even with your normal mobile camera.
Tripod; if you like shooting outside, so investing in a tripod would be great, and no shaky videos next time.


9. learn  basic video editing 

Having some good editing skills helps your channel to grow much faster there is no need to become an expert in video editing, or if you have a budget you can get an editor for your videos, but in the starting try something your own, here are things that you can use to make your videos more attractive 
There are some free editing apps that you can use: Cap Cut and DaVinci Resolve. These are the best, but there are so many you can try them out.
On YouTube, some cool creators teach the basics of video editing and try to improve your video with music or a different track to make it more fun.


10. Create attractive thumbnail 

thumbnail becomes an important part as it gets your audience to engage with your videos, first, When I tried to create my thumbnail, it didn’t last long. People need to understand that YouTube is not just about your thumbnail; it also involves what you write on it. Let me give you an example to help you understand how things work.


11. Publish consistently 

people lack consistency because of the timing, running out of ideas at some point.
Try to schedule the activities in a that doesn't lead you to any burnout, or if it is hard for you to be consistent, then use creators' calendars it helps to stay organized with tools like Notion, Trello, etc.
