YouTube hides its own settings behind three menus and renames them twice a year, which is why the same questions keep landing in my inbox: how many channels can one Google account hold, where is the channel ID, is this channel monetised, why does the homepage look blank. This page is the index to 30 guides I have written on YouTube channels, subscribers, monetisation, thumbnails and hashtags, grouped by what you are trying to do.

Frequently asked questions
How many YouTube channels can you have under one Google account?
As many as you like: YouTube lets one Google account own multiple brand channels, each with its own name, subscribers and analytics. The channel guides above show how to create, switch between and hand over each one.
Where do I find my YouTube channel ID?
In YouTube Studio under Settings, then Channel, then Advanced settings, or on the channel page URL if it still uses the UC... form. The channel ID guides above cover both routes and what the ID is used for.
Want AI doing the heavy lifting in your marketing?
I build the systems that handle the boring 80 percent, so you get your week back. Done properly, with the human kept in.
How can I check whether a YouTube channel is monetised?
Look for the Join button, mid-roll ads on long videos and the channel being in the Partner Program regions; none of these is proof on its own, and the monetisation guide above gives the four checks that together are reliable.
Why do YouTube channels get demonetised?
Reused content, repetitive content, policy strikes, or falling below the 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 watch hours line for a sustained period. The demonetisation guide above lists each trigger and the appeal route.
Why does my YouTube channel homepage look blank?
Either the channel has no public uploads, the layout has never been customised, or you are viewing it while signed in to a different account. The homepage guide above shows the customise layout step that fixes it in two minutes.
