🎬 How to Start a Successful YouTube Channel Using AI and Free Tools

Are you fascinated by the idea of starting a successful YouTube channel using AI and free tools? In this video, I'm going to show you exactly how to do that. With over 21 million views on a riddle video, I was inspired to create a channel focused on AI automation. After extensive research, I found the perfect niche and tools to make this happen. Join me on this exciting journey as we dive deep into the world of YouTube and AI.

🌟 Finding the Perfect Niche

Before we jump into creating our YouTube channel, we need to find the perfect niche that combines AI and audience interest. After three days of research, I stumbled upon a hugely popular riddle channel. Riddles are intriguing, and with the help of AI, we can create unique and challenging riddles that will captivate our audience. Let's explore how to start our own riddle channel from scratch using free tools and AI automation.

🎥 Creating the YouTube Channel

The first step in starting a successful YouTube channel is creating the channel itself. We'll use VidIq AI Coach to assist us in this process. Simply sign up for an account and click on AI Coach. Let's ask the AI coach for 50 YouTube channel name suggestions. We have a plethora of options, but let's go with "The Riddle Genius." This name perfectly captures the essence of our channel.

🎨 Branding Your Channel

Branding plays a crucial role in attracting and retaining viewers. To create a visually appealing brand, we'll use Stable Diffusion, an open-source AI Art Generator, to generate a Riddle Genius cartoon profile picture. For the banner, we'll keep it simple by using our profile picture and Canva. Thanks to AI, our channel's branding will be handled effortlessly.

💡 Generating Tricky Riddles with AI

Now that our channel is set up with a unique brand, it's time to generate the star of our content – the riddles. We'll use ChatGPT, a powerful AI Chatbot, to write 50 tricky riddles for our YouTube videos. However, we only need 10 riddles for now. We'll ask ChatGPT to select the 10 most interesting riddles and provide their answers.

🎬 Editing High-Quality Videos

With our riddles ready, it's time to create captivating videos. We'll be using Clipchamp, a free online Video Editor offered by Microsoft, to edit and export high-quality videos without watermarks. If you're new to video editing, don't worry. I've Simplified the process for you. We'll go through step-by-step instructions to ensure your videos look professional and engaging.

Step 1: Creating the Background

To make our videos visually appealing, we'll start by selecting a suitable background color using Clipchamp's graphics options. Simply drag and drop the color of your choice into the background and cut it twice to create a clean and polished look.

Step 2: Adding Text and Riddles

Next, we'll add text to our video timeline. Paste the first riddle into the Second text box and its answer into the third text box. This will ensure that our viewers can follow along with ease. Let's make our videos more lively by utilizing text to speech. We'll select Ana as the voice and paste our riddle in the designated area. Clipchamp, with its AI capabilities, will generate the voice for us.

Step 3: Enhancing the Video with Graphics and Audio

To make our videos more dynamic, we'll add a timer sticker for a 10-second countdown. Additionally, we'll search for Relevant graphics such as images of bottles or questions and include them in the video timeline. To add a touch of suspense, we'll search for a 10-second timer sound effect on YouTube and download it using a simple trick. We'll also find suitable background Music to enhance the viewer's experience.

Step 4: Exporting the Final Video

Once we've perfected our video, duplicating the elements 10 times and updating the riddles accordingly, it's time to export our creation. Clipchamp allows us to export videos in high quality without any watermarks. Let's admire our final video and prepare to share it with the world.

📸 Creating an Eye-Catching Thumbnail

A compelling thumbnail is essential for attracting clicks and views. We'll use Canva, a user-friendly design platform, to create a YouTube thumbnail. Select a background color that complements your video and add the riddle text. Once you're satisfied with your thumbnail, simply click 'Share' and download it to your device.

⬆️ Uploading the Video

Before we can start reaching an audience, we need to upload our video to YouTube. To optimize the video for discoverability, we'll create an attention-grabbing title and description. Here's where AI comes in handy again. We'll ask the AI Coach to generate a captivating title and a compelling video description for us. Once everything is prepared, we'll upload our video, attach the thumbnail, and publish it for the world to see.

💫 Conclusion

Starting a successful YouTube channel using AI and free tools is an exciting endeavor. In this video, we've explored the process step by step, from finding the perfect niche to editing high-quality videos and creating eye-catching thumbnails.
