YouTube Shorts are vertical videos up to 60 seconds long that allow you to connect with a new audience using just a smartphone.
Subscribe to the YouTube Creators channel for the latest news, updates and tips.
Once you've logged in to your channel, you can upload a video from your computer or mobile device.
Things to keep in mind
- You don't need any special equipment to get started! You can record, edit and upload all from your phone.
- After you get your first upload out of the way, try sticking to a posting schedule that you can maintain. Remember, consistency is key.
- Short videos are fun, and Shorts make it easy for anyone to get started immediately.
