Create the channel
Use an older Gmail if you have one — aged accounts are less likely to get flagged. Set up your channel name, profile picture, and banner.
Picking your channel name
- Short — 1 to 2 words if possible
- Easy to say and spell out loud
- Reflects your content or personality
- Google it first — make sure no one else has it
- Something that sticks after hearing it once
Where to get assets
- Profile picture: Pinterest — search for aesthetic avatars
- Channel banner: Canva — free YouTube banner templates at 2560x1440px
💡 KRAM Takeaway
- Aged Gmail equals lower chance of getting flagged early.
- Channel name should be memorable in one hearing.
- Set up the profile completely before uploading anything.
