What does SUBSCRIBING actually mean? (and why to Subscribe)

If this video was at all helpful and you DO actually want to send a little thanks my way, click the 'Thanks' (with a heart) button and send me even a little £1, $1 or €1 - it would be hugely appreciated and helps me to keep making videos 🙂🙏

I've realised that a lot of people don't actually know what a YouTube 'channel' is, or what 'Subscribing' actually means, or why you should 'Subscribe' to a channel. So I made this handy video to explain it all!

I'd love to hear whether you found this video useful or not; or if there's anything else around channels, Subscriptions, or YouTube you want to know, so do leave a comment if you have any questions.

This video was extremely helpful. I thought I was going to have to PAY for my subscriptions. Why does no one tell you such nice things about subscribing. This should go viral!!!

[damagedjustice]

Your time, effort's and support are greatly appreciated. 😎👌
Keep up the good work!💯

[sister.m.joanhenderson]

Thanks, about time someone took the time to actually explain it. You are my first subscription.

[lilgeorge]

I thought I had to for putting this on.

[FullLifeCrew]

Love your humor. And can totally relate to subscribe fobia in the 40 something age group.

Great video. The humor added a lot to the production. One tip: I have avoided subscribing to any YouTube videos up until this point because I did not want lots of Spam email coming in. So I would highlight the fact that it is easy to turn off the option of getting email notifications. Thanks for the excellent explanation.

This is an extremely helpful video. And made me laugh. Thanks for making something quite daunting, very simple :)

[yaakovtamir]

Very helpful video Alistair. Explained all the things I wanted to know. I’ve now subscribed to your channel. Keep up the good work champ.

[beachgirl]

You were the best to explain on what subscribed means thank you!

[DBrown-qlll]

Watched several other videos on this topics for newbies, but this one is the best simplicity and to-the-point. Thank you

[CoraalFrancis]

This was such a helpful video idea!! sharing this to my YT facebook page! thanks for making this!

[laylapaz]

Most definitely useful. I had the impression that I had to pay which worried me; considering the fact that I don't have any money. Very informative vid. Thanks dude! Just subscribed to your channel. Keep up the food work!

[SPrincessbeneficialknowledge]

Very helpful and still
Relevant. 4 years later.
I like your memes and personality. You explained it well ha ha .

[HillbillyUp]

Such a great video, funny and to the point. I was always scared to subscribe because I thought it was going to cost me money some how. You Tube really needs to change this to follow or something so it is not confusing. I hope you might even do a updated version of this video to help the creators like your self.

[MsVikoul]

This was very enlightening and entertaining! thank you for clearing it all up for me! PS: I SUBSCRIBED !!!

[lukeluke]

Im so technophobic and feel sometimes ive left myself behind, not having the time to go to a class due to my work commitments and going to the gym, cooking and all the other stuff . I would love to have one to one training and very grateful for your funny explanation . Many thanks x

[ahjustlooking]

That was cool our humor is alike that’s why I like to be funny and still informative,
Nice job laddië 😎

[timothyrobinson]

This helped me with the subscribe button, I wasn't sure if it deducted subscription price from my google account.
But I have a question. Since this video is helpful. why is there 186 dislikes? Should I use dislike for some other reason than I don't like it? Thank you.

[annebecious]

I subscribe to your channel, because your videos are informative, funny and that subscribe button is so cute and floppy, not scary at all. hahahahha
