Q: should you make a separate YouTube channel to upload your videos in a different language? 🤔
A: not necessarily — Multi-Language Audio (MLA) allows you to add multiple language tracks directly to a single video. if the content appeals to the same core community, keeping it on one channel is a great option!
three things to try in your next Shorts video ✨
1️⃣ be authentic: let your personality shine through
2️⃣ stay on trend: keep up with current trends and challenges
3️⃣ experiment and have fun: don't be afraid to try new things and see what works best
