Building a global channel Answers
Antoine is interested in making his videos as accessible as possible to those who speak his native French language, but also to others who speak Russian and German. What can Antoine do to determine if this approach will increase his viewership in these markets?
Add closed captions to his videos first in English; then add Russian and German cards for other language speakers.
Caption his videos in French and see how his channel performs for French-speaking viewers, then determine the appropriate method to subtitle the videos in Russian and German.
Rely on Google Translate to create the optimal closed captions for his videos; then subtitles won’t be needed.
Hire a German and Russian speaker to do a professional voiceover for his videos; then turn on automatic captions.
Why is it beneficial to add closed captions and subtitles to your videos?
Not everyone can hear the words spoken on-screen.
Not everyone speaks the same language as you.
Subtitles can provide extra metadata for YouTube’s search engine.

Indicates which playlists have videos available for community contributions on your channel page.
May serve a card to viewers who speak the same language as your video and another language to encourage them to contribute.
Alerts your subscribers with a bell notification that your channel has videos which need translations.
