Tips and considerations
- When creating a new channel, you'll need to choose a unique name and URL for your channel. Make sure to choose a name that is easy to remember and relevant to your content.
- You can have multiple channels associated with a single Google account, but each channel must have a unique name and URL.
- If you're creating a new channel for a business or organization, you may want to consider setting up a YouTube Brand Account, which allows you to manage multiple channels and users under a single account.
- When merging channels, be careful to choose the correct channel to merge, as this action is permanent and cannot be undone.
