Hi, I have a tiny question here.
For your information, I am a Chinese and I will be recording my let's play moment in Mandarin.
So, will it be better if I include English subtitles in my videos for larger audience?
Or should I just focusing on the Chinese audience?

Doing CC subtitles is HUGE in reaching a wider audience on YouTube through search. It is highly recommended!
Translating your title and description too. That can be found when you go to "Video Manager" -> Find the video and click "edit". -> Then click "Translations".

I would actually request rather largely that you add some form of English CC to expand to that audience. Simply for the given that many of Google's services including YouTube isn't allowed in Mainland China where most of the speakers of the language reside.

I think stick with Mandarin. Until you gain a huge audience, you should avoid subtitles. It won't be worth the efforts.
I hope this helps -Tom

What was nothing more than captions as long as there is from CC and interpreters must have CC YOUTUBE In video to remind you can and can on the Chinese translation this matter.
Captions for gear have an automatic translatio
