How to get a custom YouTube URL without 100 Subs

If you are searching for a custom YouTube URL without having 100 subscribers, then I would like to update you that as per YouTube policy, anyone who fulfills the below eligibility criteria can be able to choose a custom URL for their channel. The necessary requirements for a custom YouTube URL are:

  • Your channel must have 100 or more subscribers.
  • Your channel must be at least 30 days old.
  • Your channel must have an uploaded profile picture.
  • Your channel must have an uploaded banner image.

Note: Though, YouTube reserves the right to change, reclaim, or remove your custom URLs at any time. For example, if your channel was associated with a deleted Google account, YouTube may reclaim a custom URL.

What is Custom URL?

A custom URL is a customized website address that is easy to remember that you can share with your YouTube audience. The custom URL will display as below:

  • com/yourcustomname
  • com/c/yourcustomname

The custom URL can be or you can choose an available custom URL based on:

  • Your Display Name
  • Your YouTube username
  • Your Current vanity URLs
  • Your Linked website name

You can use whatever capitalization and accents you would like while sharing your custom URL with anyone. For example, YouTube will send the audience to the same channel, whether you write in any of the formats as mentioned hereinbelow:

  • com/c/yourcustomname
  • com/c/YourCustomName

Understand your YouTube channel URL

The YouTube channel can have more than one URL and all direct your audience to the same channel, i.e. Your YouTube channel.

These URLs are different from one another, but in whatever way you write in the address bar, you will always land on the same place, i.e. Your YouTube channel.

ID-based URL

The first type of URL is an ID-based URL, which looks like as below example.

Example: youtube.com/channel/UCJEBXAHShdrcJy5BPXNVzaA

This is also known as the standard URL that YouTube channels use, it is a unique channel ID of yours, which is the combination of numbers and letters at the end of the URL.

Custom URL

The second type of URL is custom URL, which looks like as below example.

Example: youtube.com/c/yourchannelname

You can also remove “/c”, like this: youtube.com/yourchannelname

A custom URL is a shorter version, which is easily remembered by anyone with whom you can share with. The custom URL can be based on your current display name, legacy username, or your linked and verified web domain.

Legacy username URL

The third type of URL is legacy username URL, an example looks like as below:

Example: youtube.com/user/partnersupport

You can also remove “/user”, like this: youtube.com/partnersupport

(Though, this is not possible if someone else claimed the custom URL with the same name)

Depending on when your channel was created, it may have a username. Though, usernames are no longer required for channels today. But if you want, you can still use this URL to direct to your channel — even if your channel name has changed since you choose your username. Existing usernames can’t be changed.
