YouTube is a great platform to share your videos with the world, but did you know that you can also upload photos to your channel? In this blog post, we will walk you through the steps of how to post a photo in YouTube.
To get started, open your YouTube application and make sure that you are in the correct YouTube channel. If you only have one YouTube account, you do not need to worry about this step. You can go to your avatar on the top right-hand side to confirm.
Next, click the plus sign, and you will see an option that says “create a post.” This is where you can upload your photo to YouTube. Write whatever text you want in the post, and then click on the icon that looks like mountains. This will allow you to upload your photo.
Once you have selected the photo you want to upload, click “next” on the top right-hand side. You can select up to five images for each post, which is a great feature to have. After you have typed in your message and uploaded your photo, click “post.”
If you want to schedule your post for a later time, you can click on “schedule a post” and follow the prompts. This is a great way to stay organized and keep your channel active.
When you post a picture on YouTube, it goes to what’s called your community tab. It will turn into a community tab once you have 500 subscribers. If you do not yet have 500 subscribers, it will likely say “discussion tab.” Pay attention to this because it will take up to one week to see the community tab after passing 500 subscribers.
You can find your posts under the community tab and under the content section of YouTube Studio. If you do not yet have this YouTube Studio app, make sure you get it installed. It is a great tool for managing your channel.
It is important to note that if your channel’s audience is set as “made for kids,” the community tab is turned off. You also cannot create or view posts. Make sure to check your settings to ensure this is not one of the errors you are running into.
In conclusion, posting a photo to YouTube is easy and a great way to keep your channel active and engaging. Don’t forget to check out the community tab to see how your audience is responding to your posts.
