- Welcome to YouTube Community News,
where I keep you up to date with all of the news
that relates to you or impacts you
as a YouTube Content Creator.
So if you're a YouTuber, make sure you subscribe.
Today We have some really exciting news.
That's going to help you grow your channel
a little bit faster if you have a YouTube channel
over 500 subscribers.
In addition to that, we have some other,
data that YouTube is giving us as well
as some other helpful news
that will be valuable or helpful to you
as a YouTube content creator.
So we're gonna go ahead and get into it today.
So the very first thing
and this one is going to help you get more views.
If you have, or help you grow your channel faster
if you have over 500 subscribers on your YouTube channel.
So first, if you have over 500 subscribers,
that means that you also have the option
to have the community feed
or that you will have the community feed.
So if you are actively using the YouTube community feed
which you should, then they are now giving us reports
and this is on some channels.
Like I haven't actually seen it on mine yet,
but they are giving you reports on which
basically out of all the posts that you're making,
how is your community feed helping you grow
your YouTube channel?
So what it's going to show you
is how many subscribers your community posts
are generating for you.
So how you can use this as a YouTube content creator
right now is you can keep track
of all the different things that you're posting
over the course of a 30 day period
or a seven day period.
Anything where you can isolate the date range.
And then as you keep track of those posts
keep track of the things
that you're sharing and just take note
of the things
that you're sharing that generate more subscribers.
That's how to use it right now.
However, they did mention that they are also going
to be expanding this to where you're gonna be able
to see the specific posts that also bring in subscribers.
So for example, if you notice,
Hey, when I post more polls I get more subscribers on those.
Then you can post a lot more polls
so that you can generate more subscribers.
If you notice,
Hey, I get more subscribers.
When I post images
behind the scenes stuff, things like that.
Then you can post more of those as a means
to get in front of more people
and grow your channel that way.
So it's data that we can use
as content creators to help us grow our channels faster
which is a humongous win for us.
But to find this, the place that you gotta look
is you go into your YouTube creator studio.
If you have this right now,
which you may or may not when you go in there,
but when you go in there,
you wanna go into your creator studio,
go into your analytics of course,
once you're in your analytics, go into advanced mode
and then click on subscription source.
Once you click on that,
then you are going to see the community feed option.
If it's showing it to you right now,
if it's not showing it to you yet,
then keep checking back in and it should show
to it should show up on your channel soon.
Like I said, it's not on my channel yet,
but it will you know, be showing up for all of us here
that have the community tab in the very near future.
Now, in addition to that,
YouTube is also making updates to the video editor.
Now this particular update,
isn't a, this isn't like a huge game changing update.
We've got more stuff that,
that we're gonna be talking about here in a second.
But I do want to let you know,
just in case you are one of the content creators
that do go in and use the editors.
So for example, if you're making video content
you might only you'll use this
if you're making a mistake of some kind
like if you added too much to the beginning of your video
or maybe there's a section you wanna cut outta your video
that you didn't like or something like that.
Then in that case, you can use this to edit the videos
that you already have on YouTube.
But that part has been around forever.
Well, not forever, but for a really long time,
but for live streamers
we typically use this more
because we'll go in and we'll edit down our replays
and things like that
so that we can have just a tighter video.
So for example, when this is finished
once this is online as a video on demand on YouTube
I'm gonna go in, I'm gonna use this tool.
I'm gonna cut off the front
gonna cut off the back to tighten up everything
just to make it a better experience for the viewers
as you guys come into this content on the replay.
So the cool thing with this
is that they are going to be,
let me find it here.
Okay.
So with this one, what they're doing is
they are adding a option to cut for better precision.
It's a new cut feature
that you can use for better precision
they're color coding the edges of the trim and cut feature.
So it's a way to differentiate it from the other one
and they're making the edges of the trim
and cut feature bigger so that they're easier to grab.
So that was not too exciting,
but I'm sharing the news that impacts you as a creator.
So therefore I wanted to let you know about it.
The next thing that we have on our list here is remixes.
So if you are somebody that is letting
other content creators, remix your content,
and the way that you know this
is during your upload process, you're gonna see little box
that you can check that allows your check
or uncheck that allows other content creators
to remix your content.
You can use this as a means to get views.
If you allow other content creators to remix your content.
So with this particular one,
they're giving us stats letting us know the actual views
that we have coming in from those.
Now, at this moment in time, it's not very detailed.
You know, you can't really deep dive,
too deep into it,
but this is a right step to help us start
to over time identify the content or the shorts
on our channel that cause other people
to have some type of response to 'em
to where they feel encouraged to react to
or make a remix with our shorts.
So in this particular use case
the way that you use that is you wanna track
the things that are getting remixed more
and just consider why would somebody be remixing this,
what can I use this?
Or how can I use this to help other people
or bring more attention to me
and what it is that I'm doing.
And also it's a great identifier
of the impact that you're making with the people
that are you know, interacting with your videos as well.
So the next thing is YouTube
has a creator safety center now.
So this was actually pushed last week
but I didn't mention it last week
because the link that I found, it was a dead link.
So I was like, okay, we can't do it this week.
So we'll just mention it right now.
So when it comes to the YouTube safety center
they've got a lot of really cool stuff in here.
So this particular one, they help you secure your account.
They help you do they share different options
for you when you're dealing
with trolls and things like that.
They have some tips in there for mental health,
tips in there for moderation of your comments
and just some guidance on
some of those outlier things
that are not necessarily related to making the videos
or growing the channel per se.
It's more related to keeping yourself in line,
keeping your YouTube account safe
keeping your community safe with the information
that's shared and the way that
you're sharing your information publicly and all of that.
So it's a needed resource.
So I'm really happy to see that they are
that they have put this out there for us.
In addition to that,
it is conference season.
We are sliding into conferences.
So I do wanna let you know
if you are a YouTube content creator
we have VidSummit coming up in September
and I'm telling you now so that you can make plans for it.
If it's something that you're interested in
but we have VidSummit coming up in September
that is from September 27th to the 29th in Los Angeles.
So if you can make it out that way
I'll see you there, 'cause I'm going to it.
I'm presenting there.
There's a lot of just amazing YouTube content creators
that are going to be presenting there.
But if you go to vidsummit.com
you'll see more information about that.
And in addition to that there is the people
of video conference.
If you can't make it out to LA,
if you're ever on the East Coast,
if you're in the states,
if you're ever on the East Coast
and you're like, Hey, I wanna go find a YouTube community
where I can go hang out with some people
and also learn about YouTube to kind of level things up
a little bit.
We also have the People Video
that's gonna be coming up in New York
and the particular dates on that one
are September 19th to the 21st.
So I wanna make sure that I let you know that.
And I do wanna remind you that the links

are down in the description as well as source links,
where you can explore for more information
as always as well.
And that's the news.
