Park first created his own YouTube channel on March 15, 2010, called "jayparkaom", posting his cover of "Nothin' on You" with his own rap and lyrics. The video went viral and garnered two million views in less than one day. Park continued to use YouTube to reach out to his fans, and uploaded more videos where he covered a variety of songs and played around with his friends from Art of Movement (AOM). Park describes himself as a "huge YouTube freak", and that he enjoys watching covers, comedy, battles, singing, dancing, and his friends Ryan Higa, Kevjumba, and Traphik.

Park also collaborated with other rappers and singers famous for their YouTube following, such as Dumbfoundead and Clara Chung on the track "Clouds". Shortly after Park performed at ISA 2010 in Los Angeles alongside many YouTube celebrities, Park featured in a highly anticipated short skit with Ryan Higa and Phil Wang, titled "Word of the Day - Bromance", which quickly went viral and has reached nearly thirteen million views as of December 2012. Park continued to collaborate and perform with fellow YouTuber's, most notably at ISA LA concert in 2010 and 2011.

Before the release of his EP, Take A Deeper Look, Park's original YouTube channel was unexpectedly removed. Park quickly created a new channel, "jaybumaom0425", reassuring fans not to worry. Park manages his own YouTube channel and uploads all the content himself; a situation which is unheard of in the K-pop industry. Park has stated that he likes to upload content that comes straight from him, and how he reads the comments and replies he gets from fans. Park also continues to upload songs and raps, b-boy and dance practice, acrobatics, choreography, news and updates for his fans, and other humorous clips.

While Park was in Los Angeles as a part of his 2012 APAHM tour, Park collaborated with AJ Rafael on a live remix of "Here All Alone, Pt. 3", an original song by AJ Rafael, and was filmed and uploaded by Knocksteady on June 4, 2012. Park also collaborated on a dance video of Love Faces by Trey Songz, co-starring and choreographed by Di "Moon" Zhang from I.aM.mE dance crew, champions of the sixth season of America's Best Dance Crew. While in Malaysia in May, Park collaborated with Dennis Yin of Elecoldxhot on a choreographed dance video of "Tonight" by John Legend.

On June 27, 2012, Park featured in YOMYOMF Network's comedy webseries with Kevjumba, in a video titled "KevJumba Takes on Zombies w/ Jay Park", where Kevjumba and Park go head-to-head in a series of paintball challenges against zombies and each other. On October 29, Park was featured in a YouTube skit by David So, titled "The Last Resort", along with Dumbfoundead. The skit is a parody of Wong Fu Productions's viral short film, "The Last". Park plays an emotional, but comedic, ex-boyfriend of the female lead, Julie Zhan. His scene was filmed at the last-minute due to a flying visit to Los Angeles.

In July 2012, Park began to release regular webisodes of Jay Park TV through his YouTube channel, filmed and edited by Hep, Park's friend and fellow Art of Movement member.

The 3rd episode, released August 26, 2012, is narrated throughout by Park.
