- Go to YouTube on your computer and in the upper right corner of the homepage, there should be an area that says sign-in.
- From there you have two options:
- If your organization or parish has a Google/Gmail account that you use for general information and are willing to use for the YouTube profile, login to Google with this account.
- If you have not done so and would like to create one, click towards the bottom of the screen where it says "Create Account". From there you will create a Google account with relevant information.
- Important note: make sure that it is accessible to multiple people and is used simply as a professional account, personal use should be strongly discouraged.
- When considering your handle or information, understand that while limits in length are not like other media devices, it should be short and distinct enough that in a Google/YouTube search it can be easily found . St. Mary’s Parish is not distinct, but St. Mary’s Parish Citysville is.
- Login using a Google Account. If you do not have one, go to: accounts.google.com and sign up for a gmail or google account for your organization. Make sure to share with others who will be using this account for uploading video.
- Feel free to be as descriptive as possible in your profile information, share with others who you are, why you are doing this, and what you hope someone viewing will receive from this page.
- Make sure you set your profile to public, you can set individual videos to private or unlisted, which will hide them from general view, but if the point is to evangelize, it must be known.
