I agreed with the bulk of the post. The proper noun 'YouTube' takes no article; the common noun 'website' does.

Mister MicawberThe proper noun 'YouTube' takes no article
For the known names we put definite article and proper noun is also a known name so why you say that takes no article please? Is there any rule about the definite article and proper nouns?

Proper names do not often take articles. I am 'Mister Micawber', not (X) 'the Mister Micawber'.
