Customize channel layout
There are two versions of the YouTube desktop experience, the current version and the new version. Follow the instructions for the experience you have.
You can customize the layout of your channel so that viewers see what you want them to when they get to your page. If you don't customize the layout, all visitors will see your channel feed.
This is recommended for creators who upload videos regularly. You can add a channel trailer, suggest content for your subscribers, and organize all your videos and playlists into sections. Or, for example, you can always show your channel trailer to new visitors.
Before you can customize your layout, you need to turn this feature on:
Classic desktop experience
