Hey guys, I could really do with some advice on this as I'm struggling with forming a brand that gels together well.
The reason why I've not given myself a better name is because I don't really know what I should be calling myself (my current channel name is just my real name.) My channel covers wildlife, camping/survival, walking, events like airshows, carshows etc, and history information. I also upload 360/VR content as well. Trying to get this to gel well is quite difficult, and having my real name on there isn't helping me to create an easily recognized identity.
I've been uploading videos fairly infrequently since November and in that time I've already changed my logo and general branding from a 'traditional' vibe to a more modern look. If I change my channel's name I'm going to have to change the logo again, but its probably something thats going to need to happen if I want to get any bigger.
Growth of my channel is going quite slow despite some really great words of encouragement from people who have sat down and watched my content, so I don't think the stuff I'm producing is the issue, but rather the name/branding. I'm also not uploading videos as often as I should, but as my stuff is predominately outdoorsy, I've been waiting for the weather to get warmer. I've been saving up for a decent action camera too so starting next month I'll hopefully be uploading some really high quality POV videos of hillwalking and camping.
For a channel name, I'm thinking something like "Essex Explorer", as I guess this is loose enough to cover all bases, but if anyone else has any ideas I'd be really grateful for any input.
Also, I'm experimenting with new thumbnails. I like them, but my wife says she thinks they look daft. Would love a third opinion: channel/UC-NfTsu7OXLBFTZyU7jzKiQ
