Explanation of the wonderful tubebuddy application in developing your YouTube channel

TubeBuddy is a Chrome Extension software extension aimed at YouTube content creators and channel owners. The tool for anyone who uploads video to YouTube.

This extension can be downloaded directly from the Chrome Web Store extension market and used to manage your channel and videos for free, but the free version has a limited number of features. Aside from the free version, the owner offers a variety of subscriptions at varying prices. Subscriptions and their differences can be found on the official website's pricing page.

Menu of quick access

After you download the extension and link it to your YouTube channel, a new menu will appear at the top next to the search rectangle. This menu will allow you to quickly and easily access various parts of the control panel from any page. You can also access your control page from the TubeBuddy website. More than one channel can be added to the same main account on the site by clicking on (My Account), through which you control many features (as we will see later).

prepared responses

The automatic comments feature, which are phrases and paragraphs that can be written in advance - via the control panel - and then respond to comments with those phrases and paragraphs with a quick click of a button, is one of the important features offered by this extension , especially for those who have large channels that receive a lot of comments every day.

This feature is known as (Canned Responses), and to use it, you must first create ready-made phrases or paragraphs suitable for responding to some comments. To do so, click on the new icon that will appear under the comments, and then click on the gear icon, which will take you to the control panel, where you can create the phrase and select it. A name (for example: thanks), then save the changes. the names of the phrases will appear in the list the next time you open it; simply click on the name of the phrase, and it will be written directly in response to the comment.

When you enter the comments page in the control panel, you will notice several changes, including the ability to see the number of subscribers to the commenter's channel. Only subscribers, which is useful for distinguishing between active channel owners who interact with you and leave comments on your videos.

Thumbnail creator

YouTube content creators understand that the Thumbnail has a significant impact on the video's spread and access to many views. The appealing distinctive image draws viewers to the video and signals to YouTube's automated system that this video may be good and useful, contributing to the video's spread. More, but the problem is that not everyone has the ability to work professionally with design programs such as Photoshop, so this add-on provides a good solution to this problem.

the thumbnail maker is available in the free version; you can find it on the video upload page (at the bottom of the page) as well as the video editing page; when you click on it, you will be taken to the editing window, where you can select an image from within the video or upload an image from your device. Then, on the image, write the phrases you want and add other shapes. 

Respond via the alerts list

You will be able to respond to comments directly from the list of alerts, which appears when you click on the bell icon at the top and shows you the most recent comments sent by subscribers on your videos. You will find a new icon for direct reply from within that list (Reply), you must click on it, write comments, and send it directly, and this may be the quickest way to follow up on comments.

Finally

... These are some of the most prominent features provided by the (TubeBuddy) extension; there are other features that you can explore on your own, and the paid version (which requires a monthly subscription) provides many useful features that may improve the productivity of the visual content maker, especially those who have a large audience and whose channel has hundreds of thousands or millions of subscribers; he really needs such tools to make it easier for him to create visual content.
