Are any of you guys verified?

[Promice]

Lately more out of curiosity rather than anything else I was looking into how to get the little verification badge on YouTube and it came to my mind to ask you guys if any of you have been verified.

 

[Mr Danny]

I am, sadly, not. But I would love to be. If you discover a way to do it, please share it with us! It'd be great to know!

no. maybe one day!

 

[GamingRack]

No but I should be haha

Per google support: "YouTube doesn't accept general requests to receive name verification. If your channel meets the qualifications for verification, you may receive the verification badge. If your channel has fewer than 100,000 subscribers, it's usually not eligible for a verification badge."

are there any perks in doing this?

To become verified, you must (more or less) apply for it. You do a process that has a few steps, youtube will check you out and will see if your videos are quality enough to be verified. You have to have a pretty good amount of subscribers and high view counts.

I personally am not verified, but this is how i hear it is done.

When I go into my Channel Settings page it states at the top 'Partner Verified' - and I have nowhere near 100,000 subscribers.....

I think after a few videos the option to verify appears on your video manager. And yeah, I'm verified too.

That's just being a partner, not being YouTube verified.
