I started a YouTube channel!(?!) It’s here: Karen Lowry youtube and before you go looking for exciting content … the two short videos I uploaded are just testimonials about that presentation I gave last November on privacy.
I did it because it was the easiest way to add videos to my site here, in terms of adding captions for accessibility and formatting for different browsers, etc. My daughter got a video-making accessory for christmas that she’s eager to use, so who knows if we’ll play around and add more. You should subscribe so I feel some pressure to actually make more videos, or at least upload ones of my cats playing. 😊
The best part? YouTube used my google ‘avatar’ which is me wearing a clown costume, which makes me laugh every time I see it, so that’s now my professional brand.
Any tips on using YouTube? Let me know about your experiences!
How exciting! Having never done YouTube I can’t offer any advice, but I am loving the clown costume!
Thanks, Julie – I do love clowning around! 🙂
If you’re trying to grow your channel, you might want to take a look at the TubeBuddy extension for your web browser. It’s helped me find new followers. Other than that, my only advice is to have fun with it! Heading that way to subscribe to you channel right now. 🙂
Thank you, Emily! I appreciate the practical tip, you subscribing, and most of all, your advice to have fun 🙂 I’ll go find you on YouTube!
