3 Tips for Optimizing Videos for Search

Advice from Jordan Raynor (follow him on Twitter @JordanRaynor) on optimising for YouTube search:

  1. Include major keywords in the title of the video.
  2. Use the ‘Description’ section to your advantage.  You are able to include a lot of text in this section and if you use it as an opportunity to repeatedly plug in your keywords, it can go a long way in optimizing your video for the search keywords you are trying to target.
  3. Tag and tweak. When you launch your video, be sure to tag the video with the appropriate keywords, just as you do with your title and description.  But your search optimization is not done yet!  Be sure to monitor your video and others with similar keywords.  If you notice that another video is performing better than yours, try copying some of that video’s keywords and adding them to yours to try to compete on the same keywords.  Adapting your video tags can be one of the best ways to keep your video alive via search.
