Claim Your Official Artist Channel

 

Official Artist Channels are designed to help artists and their teams get the most out of YouTube. Upgrade your channel today to gain access to analytics and tools that will help you engage with millions of fans and better manage your presence on the platform.

Here's what you need to claim your Official Artist Channel with Ditto Music.

 

1. A YouTube channel that you manage - primarily featuring music from one artist.
This can be any artist's YouTube account that you control. Please don't submit a channel for your label, a certain genre of music, or a compilation of various artists.

2. An active Ditto Music subscription
If you've got an Artist, Professional, or Label account with Ditto, you can claim your Official Artist Channel.

 

If you meet the requirements, just submit some info below and we'll set up your Official Artist Channel.

You can learn more about the benefits of YouTube's Official Artist Channels here.

 

IMPORTANT: 

Please make sure your main music YouTube channel has a minimum of 3 music videos already uploaded to it. Any submissions without this will be ignored.

If you can see a music note symbol next to your channel name - you already have an Official Artist Channel. If this is the case, please do not submit this form.

If you can't see the Submit button at the bottom of this form, something is wrong with your YouTube channel ID or Topic channel ID. Please read the instructions carefully and try again.

This must be the email address associated with your Ditto Music account.

Your artist name must be identical to the one associated with your main YouTube channel and topic channel.

Your YouTube channel ID can be found in the Advanced Settings section of your channel settings and will look similar to this: UCVTTctkQ3pkFanZqzfoalbw. PLEASE DO NOT SUBMIT YOUR CHANNEL URL. Learn how to find your YouTube channel ID here.

Once you've distributed music to YouTube, you'll also need to provide the ID of your automatically generated topic channel. This can be found at the end of your topic channel URL and will look similar to this: UC8m-QrFT_ZykvYLbyaNkiDA. Learn more about topic channels and how to find your topic channel ID here.

If you have video channels on any other services such as VEVO or Apple Music, please list the URLs here.
