Second Channel

Common uses are podcasts, vlogs, streams and behind-the-scenes offcuts, kept separate so the main channel's uploads stay predictable. The standing rule of thumb is short: same audience, same channel, different audience, different channel. Splitting costs you something real. A second channel starts from nothing and needs its own rhythm, so the reason for splitting should be stronger than tidiness, and most channels that run one successfully feed it from the main channel through end screens, links and mentions. They never expect it to be found on its own.
