Okay, so I'm just gonna break down the quick, easy SEO optimization for a YouTube video. Now, there is a lot of details, they'll go in that go beyond what we're just going to discuss Inside this video. But I just want to break down the basic things we probably already know about these things. Obviously, you need to have a title that's optimized. Number two, and this kind of goes without saying this is kind of the little Asterix you're going to have to obviously perform keyword research so you know what terms are best to rank for. You don't want to have to go after keywords that have no search volume, therefore have little traffic to offer.

And you also don't want to go after extremely competitive keywords. That means you're going be working days, months years to get up to that position, then the payout is obviously probably not worth that time investment. So keyword research predates all of this SEO optimization. But the main parts you'll be optimizing after we have this research is the title, the description, three, the tags, this is kind of like the meta, and then for in script keywords. Now the reason for this is in script, you're eventually either going to have this get transcribed, and that can even serve as the description, whatever you talk about, or Google is going to eventually introduce the technology where they'll just close caption everything automatically because they can pick up on the nuances of people's speech and The more videos you upload, the better they'll get finely tuned to you and how you speech and any impediments that you may have, it doesn't really matter, that's going to be a cool thing that's introduced.

But in the meantime, that means ahead of schedule, and also to your benefit if you get these things transcribed, create keywords inside of your normal phrases, create things that are naturally talked about, if you're talking about iPhone seven, then you need to keep saying, you know, this is how to repair the iPhone seven s this is how to repair the iPhone seven. You know if you've ever wanted to learn iPhone seven repairs, this is it. You know, those simple phrases are all keyword phrases, they're then going to lead towards a better optimization when these closed captions occur. Once the closed captions occur, the search engines are basically seeing on a one and zero outreach of what are you talking about? How good is this content? How much content Do you have, you know is Is it just a bunch of fluff or you actually speaking and presenting and teaching.

So in script keywords are part of the SEO optimization that's often overlooked. And really, it becomes one of the most important, like I said, when you transcribe what you're talking about inside of a video, and use that as your description, and even other things as well. So outside of that, this isn't so much an optimization of SEO, but the image cover really increases the Ctr, which is the click through rate. And really, most importantly, if you upload your image, as you know, something like keyword dot jpg, that's an image optimization that you can actually use that Google intakes and will then upload to their system. So again, this is image SEO, not only have Be a good cover image but also naming it one of your keywords that you're going after. When you do this all in line with everything, it becomes a much more popular video, it's so much easier to raise in the rankings get up higher with less views, less content, or less durations.

Now, there are other additional things that take place outside of this that we'll need to kind of factor in and I'm going to be talking about each of those different areas. But when it comes to SEO optimization for a YouTube video, these are the five areas you really need to focus on. First.
