Looking for ideas for your own YouTube Channel?

YouTube Idea 9: Travel Channel

With your own travel channel, you have an excuse to travel the world while sharing it with your audience. And your YouTube channel can pay for your travel!

Some YouTube ideas for your travel channel include:

• Showing different cities
• Discussing attractions in each area
• Travel tips
• Discuss best travel deals

One example of a successful travel channel is “Where the Hell is Matt?” Matt Harding travels the world, doing dance moves in front of iconic world attractions. Often, he invites others to dance with him.

His videos have seen millions of views and he has received corporate sponsorship to fund his travel and videos. Matt also has run a successful Kickstarter campaign where people can pledge money and vote where to send him and his film crew.

YouTube Idea 10: Gaming Channel

Love to play games on your computer or console? Start your own YouTube Gaming Channel.

Here are some content ideas for your gaming channel

• Gaming News: Discuss upcoming game releases
• Reviews: Do in-depth game reviews so people can choose the best games for themselves
• Gaming Conferences: Vlog from gaming conferences
• Game Tips and Tricks: offer tips and tricks on games to teach people how to get to the next level
• Live Broadcasts: do a live broadcast of your great gaming performances and epic fails

Once again, you can use VideoPoint to show a live or recorded game video feed in your presentation.

YouTube Idea 11: Tutorial Channel

People turn to the Internet when they want to learn something, so YouTube tutorial channels have become very popular. In my own case, I was gifted with two lovely sockeye salmon. I hadn’t cleaned a fish in over 25 years and, being a prairie boy, had never cleaned a salmon. YouTube to the rescue! I found an excellent video on how to clean a sockeye salmon and watched the video on my tablet while cleaning the fish.

Cleaning the first fish was a little shaky, but the second went well. My knife for cutting the fish was poor and not very sharp, but YouTube knife review channels can solve that as well by helping me find better knives and showing me how to sharpen them. The knives in my kitchen now are much better quality and razor sharp thanks to YouTube tutorials.

Some ideas for tutorials include:

• fashion
• musical instruments
• software (my son creates tutorials on the music studio software he uses)
• crafts
• cooking and more

Here is a tutorial success story for you. Michelle Phan was a struggling student and part time waitress who started creating “how-to” videos on applying makeup. She now has over 8 million subscribers, over 1.21 billion views and her own makeup line.
