For instance, if your keyword is “make money online”, save
your video as “makemoneyonline.mp4”.
It might seem like an unnecessary step since YouTube doesn’t
publish the file name, but it’s important. While viewers won’t
see it, YouTube does and it makes a difference in how you
rank.
Next, create your video’s title and use the same keyword
phrase again. If you want to really rank high, you need to use
a secondary keyword in your title too.
I like to use a slight variation of my primary keyword for the
secondary keyword. For example, “Make Money Online –
Making Money Online Quickly”.
It might sound redundant, but YouTube loves it and it will also
help you to rank higher.
2. Use the Right Tags
The best strategy for choosing your tags is to copy the
competition. Find the most popular videos in your niche and
then use the same tags.
If your keyword is “parrot training”, enter that phrase into the
YouTube search bar. Then check out the top ranked videos
and copy the relevant tags for your video.
These tags are already proven and you know that Google
recognizes them as most important for your topic because they
are ranking at the top.
