Answer

Creating a channel on Gan Jing World is easy: create an account or sign in, click the Me icon at the upper right corner of the page (on both mobile and PC), select My Channel, and follow the instructions. Once your channel exists, you can customize its name, picture, and description in Creator Studio under Channel Settings → Basic Info, and claim a personalized channel URL (@handle) to make your channel easier to share. Note that your channel name — not your sign-up username — is what is displayed publicly.

  1. 1

    Sign in or create an account

    Create a new account or sign in with your existing account on Gan Jing World.

  2. 2

    Create your channel

    Click the Me icon at the upper right corner of the page (on mobile and on a full-screen PC page), select My Channel, and follow the instructions to set up your channel. Once created, you can open Creator Studio from the same Me menu and click Create Content to start uploading videos, Shorts, or articles.

  3. 3

    Open Channel Settings

    Click your profile image and select Creator Studio, then click Channel Settings at the bottom left of the screen and select Basic Info.

  4. 4

    Update your channel name, picture, and description

    In Basic Info, change your channel name, picture, or description as desired, then click Save at the upper right corner to apply the changes.

  5. 5

    Set your personalized channel URL (@handle)

    Choose a handle with at least 5 characters that incorporates your channel or brand name. Handles may include letters, numbers, underscores (_), periods (.), or hyphens (-). Adding words like "official", "tv", "media", or "channel" helps create a unique, memorable handle — handles that are too short or already in common use may be rejected. Once your handle is accepted, your channel gets a clean, easy-to-remember personalized URL that is easier to share on social platforms, in emails, or in person.

Why claim a personalized URL#

  • Build a recognizable brand with a clean, easy-to-remember link.
  • Share your channel more easily across social platforms, emails, or even in person.

Channel name vs. username#

Your channel name is what is displayed publicly on Gan Jing World — not the name you entered when signing up. If you would like them to match, simply update your channel name in Channel Settings → Basic Info.

Languages and deleting a channel#

Currently, one channel supports one language only; the ability to upload content in all languages to the same channel is planned for the future. If you want to delete your channel, contact Customer Service with your channel's home page link and your account's email address to confirm the request.

Warning

Channel deletion is permanent — once deleted, a channel cannot be recovered.
