Creating an Account
The First Step is to Have a YouTube Account – You can use your existing Google Account or create a new one. Consider creating a new account for your YouTube channel because you can separate your personal emails, storage on Google Drive, and video history. Go to www.youtube.com, tap the big login button at the top left and follow the steps to create a new account.

Communicating with Your Video
Once your video is published, YouTube Studio helps you to follow the story with the help of a dedicated badysis section. You can view details about the number of views you've got, the total viewing time, the number of subscribers, the best videos, the activity in real time, the traffic sources, the impressions, the best videos as well as the separation of the viewers according to the bad and the age. In the comments section, you can view and comment on your video's comments. YouTube will show you which comments have been selected for review and which ones are likely to be spam.

Visual Equipment
Camera ] It is not very important if you are just getting started. You can use a camera or your smartphone. A good DSLR or mirrorless camera will give you better quality and is always recommended if you are serious. Also try recording and downloading videos in 4K resolution for greater range (but 1080p should be the minimum). Tripod
Your camera / phone must be kept foolproof during video recording. The best way to do this is with a tripod. There are different types of tripods available from 300 rupees. You can start with one of the Amazon Basics tripods: they offer tilt and swivel movement, adjustable height and a travel bag.

Lighting
When you record a video, that 39; it is a product or if you register your own vlog, you must have good lighting. One way to solve this problem is to photograph in the light of day, but if you are shooting indoors, you need to have a good lighting setup. Start with LED video lights that can be mounted on a table or on your camera. Prices usually start from 1200. Microphone
Quality audio quality is as important as video and that's why it's best to have a dedicated microphone. You can get a lapel microphone or tie to start. This clips on your shirt and gives you much better audio quality (with reduced ambient sounds) compared to the microphone of your phone / camera. Prices start as low as 199 rupees. Rode and Shure make the best pickups, but if your budget is strict, consider the Boya BYM1 (Rs 849).
