I can see some channels were instructors have their own names, and their linkedin profiles / bio on their channel.

I see other instructors that do not tell their name and who they are and remain anonymous.

What are the pros and cons to this?

    @Dr_Ros

    I think most people who don't use their name use a company name instead. I would definitely not have a course by "anonymous" as it will erode trust from the student.

    Why remain anonymous? When creating a course, you also create a brand that people will recognize and want to buy more from (if it's good).

    My 2 cents.
