Why you should invest time in creating great YouTube Descriptions

YouTube is the second-largest search engine in the world.

As a search engine, it needs information to understand what your video is about in order to show it to relevant people that might like to watch it.

YouTube’s tech is pretty sophisticated. It can pick up information from the video itself, but the more you help the search engine out, the better your chances of attracting relevant people that might otherwise not have known that your video exists.

Next to your YouTube Title, you should also invest time in your video description.

Let people know what the video is about, and why they should care to watch it. Try to evoke an emotion and make sure to add relevant keywords when possible.

Next.

Add information about yourself, where they can find you, and add a clear call to action. What do you want people to do after watching your video? Visit your website, comment, answer a question?

Lastly, add three relevant hashtags that match your video best. This helps YouTube learn even more about your video and to whom the algorithm should show it. The hashtags will be displayed in your description section and just beneath the video.

If you’re looking to do a YouTube Audit, you might find it difficult to write or rewrite dozens or hundreds of video descriptions. StoryLab.ai’s YouTube Description generator can help you do the heavy lifting.

What should I write in the YouTube Descriptions?

The YouTube video description is crucial. It helps to:

  • Increase SEO optimization for your video;
  • Increase the depth of your story;
  • Encourage individuals to visit your website and take action;
  • Interlink to other videos to increase relevancy.
  • Add relevant hashtags;

The above points should be added to your video description. Let’s break it down.

Increase SEO optimization for your video

Repetition of your primary keyword and other secondary keywords should be used to start the first section of your video description. Briefly describe the issues and solutions you address in your video.

Increase the depth of your story and add CTAs

Expand on the brand story in the following portion of your video description.

Encourage others to move forward by activating them. Refer them to your website that is related to the video they are watching or ask them to share, subscribe, like, or comment.

Interlink to other videos to increase relevancy

Building expertise and topical relevance on YouTube is crucial. Linking to other of your similar videos in your description is one way to achieve this.

Add relevant hashtags

You can further improve SEO by using three relevant hashtags in the final section of your video description. Additionally, these three hashtags will appear underneath the video.

You can add hashtags to a title and description when you upload a video or record a Short on YouTube, or when you create a playlist in YouTube Music.

To add a hashtag to your video on YouTube:

  • Enter a # symbol in the title or description and then begin entering the topic or keyword you want to associate with your video. The system will then suggest popular hashtags based on your input.
  • Choose a recommended hashtag to promote your video among others with the same hashtag or create your own to find the hashtag appropriate for your content.

How long should a YouTube description be?

How Long Should a YouTube Description Be? YouTube allows you to use up to 5,000 characters (about 800 words). You don’t need to write to max out the available space. Keep your content relevant, keyword optimized, add value, and get people to take action.

Should I add YouTube Descriptions to my YouTube Shorts?

You should write an SEO-Optimized description for your YouTube Short videos. YouTube is experimenting heavily with this new short-form format. Every time you login to YouTube it seems like Video Shorts are being displayed in a different place. Nexxt to the shorts feed, YouTube Shorts Videos also appear in the overview section when searching. The better optimized your Short, the better it will rank. And utilizing the description section is a must. If you want to learn more, check out our YouTube Video Short Statistics Guide.

What is not allowed in the YouTube Descriptions?
