YouTube® has grown from a video viewing site to a social network with features allowing users to share, comment, upload, rate, create channels, subscribe to channels and other things. Just like with other social networks, YouTube® accounts can cause issues that subsequently lead users to delete their accounts. However, many users do not know how to delete their YouTube® because it’s not very intuitive. If you want to delete your YouTube® account, follow the instructions below for a step-by-step guide on completing the process.
Deleting a YouTube® Account:
