The YouTube Channel You Should Start Today as a Total Beginner

Easy money. This is what people thinking about starting a YouTube channel.

“Easy money”. Just start a motivational channel or a quiz channel. You'll make thousands.

It doesn't work this way, but this is what you learn when you already have a channel.

Beginners can fall into this trap.

Let's talk about what type of channel (as a beginner) you should start.

WHY DOES IT MATTER

Why Tutorials Channel?

Why should you focus on creating content that people are searching for?

The answer is simple: visibility and growth.

When you create videos that answer common questions or solve problems, your content is more likely to be discovered.

This is because YouTube is the second largest search engine in the world (after Google), and millions of people use it daily to find solutions.

By targeting popular search queries, you're tapping into an existing audience that’s actively looking for the content you’re creating.

This increases your chances of getting views, and subscribers, and ultimately, building a successful channel.

Instead of guessing what people might want to watch, you’re basing your content on real data—what people are actually searching for.

THE METHOD

Start and Upload More

Let’s break down how this works in practice.

Start by doing some basic research on YouTube.

Look up topics you’re interested in and see what questions people are asking in the comments.

• Use tools like Google Trends, YouTube’s search bar autocomplete, or even keyword research tools to find out what’s trending.

Once you’ve identified a topic, create a simple, step-by-step tutorial.

Your video doesn’t need to be perfect—especially at the beginning.

Focus on being clear and helpful.

• Use a straightforward title that reflects what people are searching for.

For example, if you’re making a video on how to use a certain software, title it something like “How to Use [Software Name] for Beginners.”

As you publish more videos, pay attention to which ones get the most views and engagement.

This will help you refine your content and continue to target the right audience.

Consistency is key.

Regularly upload videos to build momentum and keep your audience coming back for more.

CONTENT IDEAS

Niches to Enter

Now that you understand the basics, let’s talk about some niches you can explore.

As a beginner, it’s a good idea to start with something you’re already interested in or have some knowledge about.

Here are a few niches that are popular on YouTube and have plenty of room for beginner creators:

• Tech Tutorials: This could range from explaining how to use certain software, troubleshooting common tech issues, or reviewing gadgets. Many people turn to YouTube for tech help, so there’s a huge audience here.

• DIY and Crafts: If you’re handy or creative, this niche is perfect. People love learning how to make things themselves, whether it’s home decor, gifts, or practical household items.

• Cooking and Recipes: Everyone eats, and many people are looking for new recipes or cooking tips. If you enjoy cooking, this could be a great niche to explore.

• Educational Content: If you’re good at explaining concepts, whether it’s math, science, language, or history, you can create educational videos. These can be aimed at students or anyone looking to learn something new.

• Fitness and Wellness: With the increasing focus on health, fitness tutorials, workout routines, and wellness tips are in high demand. If you have a passion for fitness, this could be your niche.
