If you want to become Youtuber, the first thing you need to do is create a Google account. The Google account is absolutely essential as it will serve to access all Google services, YouTube between them. Without a Google Account, you will not be able to create your channel on YouTube and become a Youtuber.

Want to know how to open your Google account? No problem, I can help you in no time. All you need to do is follow the directions you will find below. I’ll explain how to open a Google account via browser destkop. However, keep in mind that the procedure can be performed practically in the same way on smartphones, in case you prefer to act as a mobile device.

Also, do not forget that if you have a device with a Google operating system, you should already have a Google account. You will surely have created it during the configuration of your smartphone and to access the Android PlayStore.

Alternatively, you can still follow the procedure that I will show you to eventually create a new Google account exclusively dedicated to your path on YouTube.

Ok, this said, ban the chatter: the first thing to do to open a Google account and open the browser you use to browse the Internet (for example Google Chrome or Safari) and access the main page of the Google search engine.

In the address bar of the browser, type www.google.com and, once you are connected to the service home page, press the Login button you can find at the top right.

Now, on the page that will open, you will have to click on the item More options you can see below. Then press on the Create an account item from the menu that you can see on the screen. This way you can have the possibility to create your Google account.

You will have to fill in the form that will be proposed with all the indications on the screen. Please enter your name, surname, username and password to use for your Google account. It also indicates date of birth and gender of belonging.

Also consider that the procedure I have indicated is also related to the creation of an e-mail address and therefore a Google account. All Google services are linked: by creating a Gmail account you will have the possibility to have access to all the Big G services. Through this procedure you will also receive an e-mail address consisting of username@freemail.com. In case you want to use this email for YouTube, consider choosing the same username to give to your channel.

Before proceeding to create your account, you will need to indicate a secondary email address and a mobile phone number: this data is optional. If you do not want to indicate, you can also choose not to do so, speeding up the practice of opening your Google / Gmail account.

Then confirm the data requested by pressing on the item Next step, finally accept the privacy and terms of Google service by clicking on the item I accept. Then click on continue to be redirected back to the main Google screen.

Congratulations, now you’ve finally created your Google account and you can access all the services connected to it.

On YouTube you should make videos where you compare in first person. Personally, however, I do not recommend recording videos with the integrated webcam of your PC. If you want to become a Youtuber and be successful you have to make videos in high quality. My advice, in fact, is to invest on the purchase of a video camera that records at least in Full HD (1920 × 1080).

Are you not very knowledgeable about what is the best video camera currently in circulation and would you like some advice? No problem: I suggest you read my guide on which Full HD camera to buy.

If, on the other hand, you think you absolutely need a Webcam, for a more practical speech, you can bet on a high-end model. For more advice on which Webcam to buy, I suggest you read my purchase guide.
