I use a webcam in my videos but I'm not sure if it would be better without it. Tell me your opinion.
YouTube Webcam or Not?

Simply yes. Why? Most people like to know who or what type of personality they are watching and listening to.
It is very subjective to yo personally. I in general do not use a web cam. I have on occasion posted a few vlogs from my cell phone but 99% of my videos do not have a webcam. Your content will speak for itself if it is good quality, if you are new to YT your personality will take time to show through your video creations as well.
Personally, I prefer videos without a facecam as I enjoy the personality of the person and the content they upload - I don't care for what they look like.
It really comes down to personal feelings, admittedly, there are pro's/con's when it comes to making videos with web cam, you should ask this kind of a question from your YouTube subscribers to gather the better understanding/knowledge about what kind of videos does your subscribers want, and, how they should be, and, it really comes to personal preference, I for one, don't like the whole idea for having a webcam, I want to stay behind the scenes, although there are things that could change that.
Are you comfortable with it? Is it a hassle to include a webcam or not? You should ask yourself questions like these to figure out whether or not you should have it or not.
I personally prefer webcam when I record because I want to see my facial reactions. I've been known not to smile a lot, though I'm a very friendly person, so this helps me work on showing my emotions.
I guess you can ask, do you have a reason to use a webcam? I hope this made sense hahaha

I just started using a camera back in March and people seem to enjoy my reactions and all that good stuff. I would just experiment and see what you really prefer to do yourself
It doesn't really matter too much but you should experiment and see what you + your audience likes most
It can give the viewer a better experience as they have a face with voice along the video. But the choice is entirely up to you
All up to yourself, I don't really use a webcam, cos i don't feel like showing my face sometimes,maybe if i was doing something like an announcement or an update video, plus not sure how good my laptop is to record both.
Using a webcam can help connect viewers and engage them, especially since it gives a face to the voice of the streamer/youtuber, especially where most people don't use facecams and are just disembodied voices on a speaker.
You decide on whether you put on your camera or not, but for the better it is better not to turn on your camera!
I have a camera, but either having it or not is the same thing, but honestly i rather not have a cam
