How to make a Youtube channel - the text that i promised to share



Hi there to all the fans of 2oldmenandablonde,

I have promised to make a post where i post the text from the tutorial about how to make a Youtube channel. Here it is, but i would strongly recommend you to watch the video!!

THE TEXT FROM THE TUTORIAL; HOW TO MAKE A YOUTUBE CHANNEL ACCOUNT

 There are 3 ways to create a youtube account:
-sign in with an existing gmail or google account
-sign in through the youtube website
-creating a google account

With the second one you need to create a Gmail account. If you don't want that, then it's better to just create a google account. The link for that, you can find in the description box below.

In the next few minutes I will take you through the steps of how to create these accounts. But first I wanna welcome the fans from 2oldmenandablonde. If you came here through the youtube search engine then I hope this tutorial is gonna be helpful for you. And I would be delighted if you would check out our short entertaining and funny videos. Which I make together with 2 friends of mine Kevin and Bjorn.

Before whe start with the tutorial:
REMEMBER, you can always pause the player if it goes to quickly.

So let's start with option nr. 1 when you have an existing gmail or google account:
-Click on the sign in button
-type in your existing gmail address
-or the email address which you use for your google account
-then click the sign in button

You now have a youtube account which allows you to like videos and subscribe to channels. However when you want to comment on the videos then you also need to have a Channel. And we from 2oldmenandablonde would be really happy if our fans would start commenting on our videos, cause the more comments a video has got, the higher it will get in the youtube search engine. And that makes us being found easier again by new audience. Which will hopefully lead to more views and subscribers.

I will show you how to create a channel in the next step.

Option nr. 2 signing in through the youtube website
-click on the sign in button
-then on the create an account button
-you now need to make a gmail account
-type in your name and choose a google username
-and fill in the rest of the form
-type in these words to prove you are not a robot
-uncheck this box if you don't want to link your google+ and make sure to check the terms of service box
-now click on next step

A new window comes up
-you now have to verify your account
-i recommend you to do it by sms
-select your countrys flag
-and type in your mobile phone-number
-then click continue

Another window comes up
-Wait for your sms
-it can sometimes take up to 15 minutes
-type in the code and click continue

A new window comes up which creates your google+ account
-click the next step button

Another window comes up
-make sure to wright down your email adresse, cause you will need this, to log into your youtube account the next time
-now click on the back to youtube button.

You now finally have a youtube account.
-you can now take a short view through youtube
by clicking on the next button
-or skip this and click on the cancel button

You now have a youtube account which allows you to like videos and subscribe to channels. However when you want to comment on the videos then you also need to have a Channel.

Let's create channel:
-click on the triangle on the right side
-an extra menu folds out
-click on the youtube settings link

A new window pops up:

instead of using your own name
-click on the create a username link at the bottem of this new window.
-now type in a username how you want to appear on youtube
-now click on the big blue button

Yeah you did it,..you have a youtube channel and you can now: upload and comment on videos. For example on our videos from 2oldmenandablonde.

Option nr. 3 creating a google account
-so for all the people that don't wanna create a gmail account this is how you can do it.
-you can find the link in the description box below
-now fill in the form
-type in the word verification
-check the terms of service box

A new window pops up
-you now have to verify your account

-then click on the send verification code button

Another window comes up
-Wait for your sms
-it can sometimes take up to 15 minutes
-type in the code and click on the verify button

An email has being send to your regular email account
-if you can't find it check your spam folder
-now open the mail and click on the link
to activate your account
-a new window pops up but you don't have to do anything with it.

Now go to the youtube homepage
-Click on the sign in button
-type in your email address which you used to make this google account
-then click the sign in button
-you can now take a short view through youtube
by clicking on the next button
-or skip this and click on the cancel button

You can now like videos and subscribe to channels. However when you want to comment on the videos then you also need to have a Channel.

A new window pops up

How to make a Youtube channel - 2013 - Tutorial



Hi there to all the fans of 2oldmenandablonde,

Yesterday we have uploaded a video tutorial where we explain how to make a Youtube channel. we showed 3 different ways to do it. The following is the link which you need for option 3. https://accounts.google.com/NewAccount

The 3 ways of how to make a Youtube channelare: 1 with an existing Gmail or Google account, 2 sign in through the Youtube website and 3 by creating a Google account.

Why would people want to make a Youtube channel? Cause then they can subscribe to other channels, comment on their videos and make playlist of the videos that they like! You can also create your own channel and upload awesome videos that you make and want to share with your friends and followers.

We have made this video, cause loads of our friends didn't knew how to create a Youtube channel or Youtube account. That's why they asked us if we could make a video about how to make a Youtube channel/account. For us it is very importing that our fans know how to get a Youtube channel or that they know how to make a Youtube channel. We from 2oldmenandablonde just want to help our fans in creating a Youtube channel so that they can subscribe to our channel and comment on our videos

We will make a extra post with the text version of this tutorial.

I hope this tutorial is a great help for everybody!

Lenny is getting frustrated - 3rd episode 2oldmenandablonde



Hi there,
And welcome back to our Blog from 2oldmenandablonde. There where we try to become Youtube Stars, creating a Youtube Comedy Channel.

Today we have put our third video online. In this 3rd episode of 2oldmenandablonde Lenny is getting frustrated. They are trying to become YouTube stars / YouTube partners and Lenny wants to plan more, make sketches, do script writing and become more professional. Björn and Kevin on the other hand just want to let the camera roll and film while they are talking and making fun. They also explain the audience how to help them getting more views, subscribers and comments. At the end they will ask you to help them become YouTube stars and follow them and see if they will succeed or fail trying to become YouTube stars.

We are online now for two weeks and i am happy to tell everybody that we have allready 24 subscribers and 633 views on our 2 videos. It's a start and we'll keep working on improving our videos and making them more funny and entertaining!

I have also been working on making 5 tutorials for our audience. In these tutorials we explain them how they can create a Youtube account and a Youtube channel. So then they can subscribe to our channel if they want. And when they make a Youtube channel they can also start commenting on our videos. Cause we are trying to be interactive with our audience/viewers. We are asking them a question at the end of every show. In the following episode we always show the most funny comments from our audience/viewers.

I will make a post somewhere this week with the tutorial videos. I hope they can be a great help to anybody!

I hope you like our videos!!

The second video is online of our new Youtube comedy channel


Hi there,
And welcome back to our Blog from 2oldmenandablonde. There where we try to become Youtube Stars, creating a Youtube Comedy Channel.

Today we have put our second video online. At the end of this video Björn tells a great story about a German guy jumping in a frozen pool and hurting his ass.The rest of this video is about 3 guys trying to become YouTube stars / YouTube partners. In this second episode Lenny battles with Kevin and Björn, cause K+B just want to let the camera roll and film whatever happens. And Lenny wants to plan more, write scripts and make storyboards.  At the end they will ask you to help them become YouTube stars and follow them and see if they will succeed or fail trying to become YouTube stars.

The second video on this post is the video Björn was talking about in our video. It is the video from a German guy who tries to jump in a frozen pool. He then finds out that the ice is to thick and he hurts his ass. I personally think that Björn is a great story teller and that we should make more items like this in our show. I am curious what you guys (the audience) thinks of that? Do you think Björn is a great story teller? And do you think he told the story of the german guy trying to jump in a frozen pool in a funny way?

Hope to hear from everybody, cause we would like to improve our show
and we can't do that without your help.

The first video is online of our new Youtube Channel

Hello There,

Yesterday we have finally put our first Video Online. We are no Youtube Stars yet, cause we only have 150 views after the first day, but the start is there.

Our first video is about: 3 guys trying to become YouTube stars / YouTube partners. In this first episode Lenny totally screws it up and stutters and stumbles trying to give a quick introduction of his crew members Kevin and Björn. They then comment on his stuttering and stumbling and have a good laugh while they are making fun of Lenny. At the end they will ask you to help them become YouTube stars and follow them and see if they will succeed or fail trying to become YouTube stars.

On Facebook we had quiet some good comments and loads of our friends where so kind to share the video on there Wall. We have gained 12 subscribers after the first day and i hope this will continue.

In the coming shows we will ask our viewers to help us to get more views on our Youtube  videos/Channel. We will ask them to help us to get more likes on our Youtube videos. And we will ask them to help us getting more subscribers on our Youtube Channel. Cause you never know, they might have a brilliant idea how to gain more Subscribers, likes, comments and views.

I am excited about the reactions of next weeks Video, cause i think it is a bit more funny then the first episode which we have launched yesterday.
