Thank you NetGalley for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

The cover is simple and gets the job done.

I personally do not want to be youtube famous, but my son does. I mean what child doesn't, right?!

It had some helpful info.

Interesting read, especially as a YouTuber with very small channels. Some helpful hints but nothing that really was a game changer for me.

This book didn't download properly for me - but it sounds great and I hope to read it when I can get my hands on the final and published copy.

This was a really interesting and informative read, as I always wondered how people are able to make a living on YouTube. The author really did their research and spoke to successful YouTube personalities, so the advice isn't from someone that just threw together a book. The time and effort put into writing this comes across to the reader. I learned a lot from this and now know how it is possible for people to make a living off of YouTube!

Good introduction for anyone who wants to do YouTube content creation. I think that beginners would benefit the most from this title.

Superb summary of the key elements of a successful YouTube channel - and business.
This is by far the best book that I have read on how to film, edit, launch and monetise a YouTube channel in almost any niche market.
I particularly enjoyed the Technical Tangents which were super useful. For example; how to use tags and create a channel trailer.
If you are even thinking of building a YouTube channel then this is the book for you.
Recommended.

The worst thing about this book is its cover.
It's a stark contrast with the beautiful interior design,

The less you know about YouTube, the more you will get out of this book.

The book's format is simple: each two-page spread has a key tip from a popular YouTuber on one side and color photos of that YouTube on the other side.

The key stats of each YouTuber are displayed (i.e., # of subscribers, their username, and their favorite YouTubers).

The title of the tip summarizes the tip (e.g., "Don't pigeonhole yourself").
Then there's one paragraph expanding on that concept.
The second and last paragraph is all about the YouTuber who is giving you this tip.

Every 3 pages, you get a two-page "Technical Tangent."
These are super usesful.
You get several practical tips.
For instance, one tech tangent is "Before you hit record."
It says:
Shoot it with your 4K smartphone or used DSLR.
Go steady (don't shake).
Get lit.
Check audio.
It breaks down all 4 of those tips.

Overall, if you'd like to increase your YouTube audience, this book is quite helpful.
It should pay for itself.
I gave over 1,000 subscribers on my channel and I certainly learned several practical things from this colorful book with a lousy cover.

This is an excellent book for anyone that wants to create YouTube videos and create an online community on YouTube. It goes through all the practical aspects as well as insightful interviews with current YouTubers. I will be purchasing this for the YA section of our library as I think young people will really enjoy and engage with this book. However, anyone with an interest in YouTube will find it beneficial.

This is download only. I'm sorry but I do not have the time to sit in front of my computer. I prefer Kindle books. It sounds intriguing.
