How to Make Community Posts on YouTube

YouTube Community posts help you connect with viewers differently. Here, we have discussed how to make community posts on YouTube.

A community post on YouTube can reach your viewers directly with media like GIFs, polls, and images. However, it depends on the eligibility of your account. Generally, YouTube accounts with at least a thousand subscribers count can access the Community tab and create Community posts.

Although YouTube creators are known to access their followers in a video-centric way, creators can now reach out more directly using community posts. This allows creators to interact with their viewers with media like polls, GIFs, text, images, and videos available in the YouTube Community tab.

However, YouTube has claimed that feature is still being tested, and as a result, only accounts with at least a thousand subscribers can have access. Accounts with less than that may also have access in the future.

If the Community tab is made available to your account, follow the procedure we are about to discuss how to create a community post on your YouTube channel. This can be done on both the desktop and mobile app versions of YouTube.

Visit YouTube and sign in to gain access to your account.
Next, click the Upload button, usually the video camera icon located at the top-right side of your screen and select Create post option.
Now, type or paste your message into the text box seen and add an image, GIF, or video, as you want. Besides, specify the kind of post you wish to create. It can be a video, poll, image, or post.
