It's really fun, and free!
Many times you'll get a notice that your video has been restricted by YouTube. This is because you've posted a video that is "not appropriate" and that violates YouTube's Community Guidelines. When this happens, you need to contact YouTube's help desk to ask them what's wrong. Their message to you can be found at this URL:
Keep in mind, however, that content that may be considered inappropriate by some may be perfectly legal for others. In most cases, this will all be handled on a case-by-case basis, but if you do run into problems, go ahead and contact YouTube. They'll get back to you with an explanation and will hopefully be able to help you out!
**Notes:**
* Although you can create videos up to 1080p/Full HD on a computer, YouTube tends to cap things at 720p/Standard HD. However, you can go higher on most computers.
* If you want to take a video offline, download it to your computer or tablet, and then save it to your local hard drive.
## Step 5: Share with Friends
If you're already talking about your video to anyone in your life, it's time to put it online. You don't have to have an audience to get started, so go for it! When it comes to getting viewers, the secret to viral video success is having a unique, compelling message. If you're hoping that YouTube is your only venue for success, you're going to be disappointed. There are plenty of other places to get your video viewed online, and there's little you can do to make sure your video gets viewed on YouTube. The only thing you can do to increase your chances of getting viewers is to make sure your video has a unique message.
YouTube is a fairly crowded website that has a lot of videos on it. Even if you put an interesting video on YouTube, it's still going to compete with everything else on the site. It's not uncommon for videos to receive between 30,000 and 50,000 views in the first day. If your goal is to get 1,000,000 views in the first month, you're going to need a lot more than that. Even if you can get thousands of views on your videos, chances are the views will go away fast if you don't build up
