YouTube Marketing Success: How to Generate Traffic Using YouTube Video Tags and Category

How do you make a YouTube video that will be listed at the top search results amidst thousands of

related videos?

Well, getting top rankings on YouTube certainly involves a lot of work, but what we’ll cover on YouTube

Marketing Success series are smart ways to ensure that your YouTube marketing videos get maximum

visibility and consequently increasing the chances of improving your business’ website traffic.

So make sure you read the previous blog posts from the YouTube Marketing Success series.

As this is the fourth and final part of the series. And in this final slice of the series, we will be talking

about Tagging and Category.

So let’s cut to the chase, shall we?

Here are the 4 points to effectively complete your YouTube Video optimization via Tags and Category:

1. Start with the keywords you used in your description, and end off with a few related tags. Don’t

use too many tags, around 5-7 is a good number.

2. Use a combination of multi-word and space delimited tags to ensure maximum visibility.

Remember to use descriptive keyword tags as these greatly improve the chances of matching

search phrases.

3. Where possible, use a mix of popular keywords as well as niche ones so that your video is

associated with all possible search patterns.

4. Categories are an often-overlooked aspect of Video SEO, so don’t forget to select the most

appropriate category for your video. If you regularly post “how-to” videos you should post some

to the “How to” category, and some to categories more closely linked to the actual subject.

Monitor the performance of both on YouTube to see which category generates the most views

for your videos.

YouTube is the second largest search engine on the internet, next to Google. So if you are just focusing

on increasing your business’ ranking on Google search results alone, the chance of success will be lesser.
