Open Competitor Tracking and click Add channel. You can add a channel two ways.
Paste URL
Paste the channel's link into Channel URL. These formats work:
youtube.com/@handle, including links to a tab likeyoutube.com/@handle/videosyoutube.com/channel/UC…- Just the handle:
@handle - Just the channel ID, the one starting with
UC
Links with or without https://, www. or m. all work.
Older links like youtube.com/c/name or youtube.com/user/name don't work. Open the channel on YouTube and copy its @handle link instead.
Adding a channel by link is free.
Search
Type the channel's name to search for it. This runs a channel search, so it costs 1 credit, the same as a Niche Finder search.
Limits
Each plan can track a set number of channels. See Saving channels to tracking for the numbers.
