YouTube Podcast Branding & SEO

I’m launching a brand-new interview-style podcast on YouTube and want to make sure the channel looks polished from day one and is easy for new viewers to discover.

Here’s what I’m hoping you can help me with:

• Complete visual identity: a memorable logo, an eye-catching channel banner and a short animated intro that play well together and instantly signal the show’s tone. Feel free to suggest colour palettes, typography and motion styles—everything should translate smoothly across thumbnails, shorts and long-form episodes.

• View growth through smart SEO: I’d like every episode title, description and tag to be keyword-rich and algorithm-friendly without feeling spammy. If you regularly work with TubeBuddy, VidIQ or YouTube Studio’s analytics, let me know—I plan to track results weekly and adjust strategy quickly.

Because the content revolves around one-on-one interviews, any branding cues or metadata tips you provide should highlight the guest, the topic and the value listeners will get from each conversation.

Deliverables
1. Final logo files (AI, PNG, SVG)
2. Channel banner (desktop, tablet, mobile safe zones)
3. 5-10-second branded intro video (1080p & 4K)
4. SEO-optimised template for titles, descriptions and tags + optimisation of the first three episode uploads
5. Brief hand-over document explaining brand colours, fonts and ongoing SEO best practices

I’m ready to start as soon as you can share a concise plan and timeline. Let’s build a podcast channel that looks professional and earns views organically from day one.
