YouTube is a place where people learn new things, create fantastic films, meet other inspired artists, and discover the beauty of a million lives. It is a source of entertainment, encouragement and information open to the public.

It also offers a career for those who are interested in becoming a YouTuber or a Vlogger. As incredible as this can be, the influence that goes with a position in front of the screen will serve people positively or negatively.

Those watching will be affected.

Such an effect can be a good thing. Sometimes we are uplifted and enlightened by the voices we hear. Other times we are left unsure and upset.

YouTubers hold a massive amount of responsibility online due to the number of viewers. Their digital jurisdiction shouldn’t be taken lightly and their presence on such a well-known site can impact different communities. Reckless behavior can reap damaging results. Lies can be supersized and gross activities can wreck minds.

Those working for YouTube do a good job regulating, but that doesn’t change the fact that bad things happen. YouTubers mess up. We have to keep ourselves aware of the influence they bear and remain steady. As always, sometimes words are said and gestures are made that can be hurtful. We have to move on.

Along with that, people who stand in the spotlight should proceed truthfully and kindly. I’ve seen so many YouTubers and Vloggers who are caring and honest. They post videos that motivate, encourage, entertain and educate. On the other hand, I’ve watched YouTubers who do not care about anyone but themselves. Who treat others like dirt and lack any kind of consideration.

Today in our world, it can be so easy to influence others. It is a fairly simple process to use a camera and upload a video, post a picture and write a caption. We can make an appearance in many areas online and profess what we believe, provide information and teach others how to do their makeup. This kind of fame has been reached by numerous people and it will continue to be reached by others.

With these abilities, we should continue to benefit others in different ways and use the power that we have to create quality videos and posts. We can improve our source of entertainment and step in front of the camera with confidence and sincerity.

YouTube is incredible and we should continue to make it even better.
