How it works
Ready in three steps
- 1Say what the video showsTopic, who watches it and what they will be able to do afterwards. The more specific the brief, the better the titles.
- 2Add the search phraseHow would a viewer type this into YouTube? Put that phrase in the keywords field.

Formulas
What makes it work
Promise what the video delivers
A misleading title gets a click and a quick exit, and short viewing time hurts the video. Specific beats dramatic.
Title and thumbnail work together
Do not repeat the same words in both. The thumbnail shows the result, the title explains it.

Questions
How long should a YouTube title be?
YouTube allows up to 100 characters, but around 60–70 usually show in full. Keep the key phrase at the start.
Do keywords in the title help the video rank?
They help YouTube and viewers understand the topic. A clear phrase works; stuffing several in a row looks spammy and gets fewer clicks.
Can I change a title after publishing?
Yes, in YouTube Studio. Change one thing at a time and give it a week before you judge.
Does it write titles for Shorts?
Yes. Describe the Short in one line and ask for the shortest variants; a Shorts title can be 30–40 characters.
