Convey to your audience that you are serious about building a brand and developing your presence on YouTube. You can do this with a polished, organized homeview of your channel.

Nothing will turn away a potential fan faster than if your page looks less like an active channel and more like a digital ghost town.

Convey to your audience that you are serious about building a brand and developing your presence on YouTube.

To do so, utilize your channel’s banner, avatar, shelves and about section to their fullest potential:

Create a banner that conveys the niche and intention of your channel along with your current upload schedule; doesn’t hurt to add a call-to-action like “Subscribe!”
Choose an appropriate avatar that represents your content and your channel’s aesthetic.
Organize your channel homepage with some channel shelves/sections that showcase your best content.
Add a channel bio in your About section and some channel tags in your Settings.
Now that you have your content organized, you can further beautify your channel by creating the perfect thumbnail.
