Posting on YouTube may be among the most efficient ways to increase audience engagement on the app.

Thankfully, the platform is consistently making ways to make this feature easier to do for channel owners and we will teach you exactly how to make a post on YouTube. 

Now you see posts on your YouTube timeline more than usual consisting of polls, images, GIFs, videos, and the like, you also want to create your own.

On the other hand, not all users are eligible to post on the platform. You will find out in this article if you are eligible to make one. 

How to Make a Post on YouTube

Posting on YouTube is done through the Community tab which can be in any form of media such as images, videos, and polls.

Creators often use this feature to increase their interaction with their subscribers through asking questions and preferences and sharing a piece of information about their lives.

Here Is how To Make a Post on YouTube Using a Desktop Site:

1. Head on to YouTube’s official website and enter your channel’s login credentials

2. Tap on the ‘Upload’ icon found at the upper corner of the screen, just before your profile icon

3. A dropdown menu will show a list of actions you can take next. Select ‘Create Post’ to continue.

An important reminder: only channels with 1,000 subscribers or more are eligible to access the YouTube Community tab

If you cannot find the ‘Create Post’ on the menu, this means you are not qualified to create a post yet.

Make sure to increase your fanbase count to over a thousand to unlock this feature.

The fastest way is to buy YouTube subscribers on any of these sites, you will see your fan count increase after just a few clicks, and start creating a post on YouTube at any time you like

4. For those eligible, start typing your message or question on the text box and consider adding media on your post. 

You may start a poll when soliciting an advice from your subscribers, share an image of your latest recipe, post a video about your latest travel, and ask questions on plain text—you post anything you want as long as it does not violate YouTube’s Community Guidelines

5. Click ‘Post’ and YouTube will automatically upload your new content on your timeline which will be available for commenting and viewing among your subscribers and other users alike
