(bright electronic music)
hello, welcome back to another video.
I'm Alan Spicer, your YouTube Certified Expert
and I'm here to help you with your channel topic.
Number one, talk about your hobby.
Maybe you like anime, maybe you like jogging,
maybe you collect things, maybe your a wrestling fan,
tell us about it.
Two, teach us about your job.
What do you do, why do you do it,
tell us every fine detail about it.
Three, share your family life.
Who do you live with, what do they do,
have you got kids, do you go out on weekends.
Four, share an illness.
Do you have a medical condition that you're struggling with
and is there tips and tricks that you find
that is gonna get better.
Maybe it's something that you've been diagnosed with
and you wanna show us along the way.
Or five, document that journey.
Are you planning on losing weight,
are you planning on saving up money
and buying your very first home.
Maybe you're doing up your home
and you can show us all of the DIY that you want to do,
six, movie reviews, everybody loves movies,
old, new, latest, classic.
Seven, TV shows, are you reviewing all of TV
or are you gonna pick one thing
and you're gonna be the "Stranger Things" expert.
Eight, gaming news, cover the industry,
tell us what they're doing, talk about E3.
Nine, play a game, once again it could be any games.
Or you could become the Fortnite expert
or the Destiny 2 expert, or anything, pile in,
get specific, teach people.
10, music news, now this could be the industry.
What is Justin Bieber doing, why is BTS there.
Or dial in specifically to your favorite artist,
tell us about Papa Roach, tell us about BTS
or any of the K-Pop era.
Maybe talk about Rihanna or I don't know, I'm old.
Number 11, maybe you are the music artist,
why not upload your own content.
Maybe upload your own original pieces
or create some fantastic covers that twist
and show off your skills.
12, be your local champion.
Go and review your local restaurants,
go and review your local attractions.
13, maybe be a drone channel.
This is your way to show everything that's around you,
some beautiful scenery, sunsets, some sunrises.
Some farmyard, some landscape.
Maybe even offer your footage for free.
Some kind of B-roll, that way you're getting to see
your work on other people's stuff
and you can see what people are doing with it.
14, be crazy, go sporty, jump off things,
bungee jumping, sky diving.
Go snowboarding with your drone, let it follow you,
make eye catching sporty weird, wow.
15, be calm, do mindfulness.
Teach people how to center themselves,
how to calm themselves, how to give themselves
five minutes of peace in this wild, crazy world.
16, motivate them, get them up and running,
give them something to push them way forward,
to lift them up when they're in a bad mood,
or to focus on that end goal
that may be two, three years away,
but finally, they've got the motivation to go for it.
17, talk about your mental health.
Maybe you're depressed, maybe you're stressed,
or you have tips with dealing with anxiety or anything else.
Let it out, let people help you, help them in return.
18, healthy eating, teach people how to cook healthy meals.
Maybe even teach them what a calorie is.
Make them understand the whole nutritional macros,
and micros that are required to keep your body going.
19, cooking in general, maybe you can dial down
into your regional delicacies.
Maybe in my case, they can show you how to do Bakewell tarts
and Yorkshire puddings, or you can teach them
fine Mexican cuisine or hidden gems
that you've never seen before, that you wanna share,
that family recipe.
20, tips for students, or people of your age range.
So in the case of students you could teach them
the things that they need to be weary of
when moving into student accommodation.
Things that you need to buy,
things that you need to be weary of on freshers day.
Study tips and that kind of thing.
Or if you're slightly older you can teach them
how to look at their mortgages and their finances
and how to look after your health once you've hit 35.
21, fitness, teach them how to warm up,
teach them how to warm down, show them some exercises.
Or specialize in one specific skill.
You could be the next person that teaches
high intensity training online,
or aerobics or spin classes online.
Content idea number 22, teach people about money.
How to save money, how to make money, how to invest money.
23, vlog your life.
I'm a big fan of GaryVee,
he always says document, not create.
So maybe show them how your life is going forward.
Do you have an interesting life,
show people what you're doing at the weekends.
If you're good at telling stories,
this could be the best way for you.
You can tell people what you did in your past
and invite them into your life.
24, react, you can react to other YouTubers,
you can react to other trends.
You can jump on trends and topics.
Everyone loves memes and drama, right?
Number 25, languages, are you learning a new language?
Do you wanna teach another language?
Maybe you wanna help people understand
the difference between them.
Here's a good way to do it, set up your YouTube channel
feed it to the camera.
