Key words and tags within videos

We have been having a discussion on email about key words and tags within online video. I decide to make a post about the topic and provide some input on the subject.

From what I have read, not all search engines look at items such as key words the same. Google for instance is not as into key words as most think so title and content seems to be more important.

Now Google is not your only concern so your tags are still important but even more important is the description and the content. Pick out your title to match both your target market and an accurate description within the video title seen below. 

Description is also important! Make sure to share your message and use words directly related to the video content. If your business is in Redlands California, Name your video Redlands California auto detailing paint scratch removal. Another idea, Redlands california auto detailing. Get creative and test…test..test. You can always add video’s or rename the video.

Now let’s look at the tag area.

Tags are important to some search engines and not for others but if people are searhing you out on You Tube and other video sites, tag’s are huge and with so many searches coming from video sites, be very selective on your tag selection. Again, if you are in Redlands, think about your local market and not just detailing. Good tags could be:

redlands california auto detailing, car detailing in redlands California, redlands california professional auto detailers

If you desire to promote traffic to your site, maybe a tag of your url, here is our url sample from our site. http://www.detailingsuccess.com/

Note, most video sites will only allow three tags.

Now choose the right category!

For the most part, we use the auto and vehicles category for our detailing related post.

First, what are key words or tags?
