1
00:00:00,090 --> 00:00:04,950
So in the last video, we talked about the most optimal description and how you should basically use

2
00:00:04,950 --> 00:00:09,600
everything that you can in your power to, you know, see out your description so that you rank and

3
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:12,090
search, you know, both long term, obviously.

4
00:00:12,090 --> 00:00:16,800
And it also brings you suggested traffic because you're giving YouTube more information on what your

5
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:17,130
video is.

6
00:00:17,130 --> 00:00:17,400
Right.

7
00:00:17,700 --> 00:00:18,850
That that makes the most sense.

8
00:00:18,990 --> 00:00:21,630
Now, the same thing goes with tags, too.

9
00:00:21,630 --> 00:00:24,780
So a lot of people don't use their tags and they don't, you know, basically go after them.

10
00:00:24,780 --> 00:00:25,010
Right.

11
00:00:25,020 --> 00:00:28,530
They'll just kind of describe what their video is in the tags or, you know, they'll do it super,

12
00:00:28,530 --> 00:00:32,780
super broad, which doesn't work for ninety nine point nine percent of people.

13
00:00:32,790 --> 00:00:37,560
And the reason is all the top videos and all the top creators are already ranking for those those really,

14
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:39,300
really honest tags.

15
00:00:39,300 --> 00:00:39,450
Right.

16
00:00:39,470 --> 00:00:44,880
So, like your business tips, your entrepreneur tips your shop, if I drop shipping all those main

17
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:50,160
tags, you know, content, you know, content marketing, affiliate marketing, if you're just going

18
00:00:50,160 --> 00:00:53,240
after broad tags like that, you're setting yourself up for failure.

19
00:00:53,250 --> 00:00:57,480
And the reason being is you can't rank for that video unless you're already established and you have

20
00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:58,440
a top, you know, channel.

21
00:00:58,740 --> 00:01:02,850
And so you need to go after longtail keywords a lot of the times and mix them in.

22
00:01:02,850 --> 00:01:04,950
We're going to talk about the best approach here in a second.

23
00:01:05,070 --> 00:01:09,750
But before we do that, I highly recommend that if you haven't downloaded to Buddy already, I already

24
00:01:09,750 --> 00:01:10,290
talked it up.

25
00:01:10,740 --> 00:01:15,930
It makes a huge, huge, huge difference when you download somebody and you're actually able to see

26
00:01:15,930 --> 00:01:19,470
a bunch of different things and you basically do your own research on your tags.

27
00:01:19,620 --> 00:01:22,440
So that can bring you the most traffic both organically.

28
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,470
And obviously it will snowball your traffic.

29
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:29,730
Once YouTube sees that it's bringing in organic traffic and people are liking the video, then they'll

30
00:01:29,730 --> 00:01:30,690
start suggesting it more.

31
00:01:30,690 --> 00:01:30,930
Right.

32
00:01:30,950 --> 00:01:32,880
So there's so many different benefits to this.

33
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:33,990
I'm not going to talk it up any more.

34
00:01:33,990 --> 00:01:38,940
There is a link above one more last time if you guys want to grab too, buddy, but it basically runs

35
00:01:38,940 --> 00:01:39,380
you through.

36
00:01:39,390 --> 00:01:43,350
So when you are going through typing in your limit, there are a lot of people don't realize that there's

37
00:01:43,350 --> 00:01:47,520
a 500 character limit and YouTube doesn't show you what you're at that five hundred.

38
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:52,080
But if you download somebody, it will show you, oh, you're at 43 so you can barely fit another tag

39
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:54,030
in or, you know, you're at 350.

40
00:01:54,030 --> 00:01:58,650
So you have, you know, a lot of room to add more tags so you can potentially rank four more tags and

41
00:01:58,650 --> 00:01:59,280
YouTube search.

42
00:01:59,280 --> 00:01:59,520
Right.

43
00:01:59,730 --> 00:02:02,400
So that's a very, very easy benefit of it.

44
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,160
But it's actually very, very important.

45
00:02:04,170 --> 00:02:08,520
It also shows the ranks and it also shows related keywords when you're typing those in.

46
00:02:08,670 --> 00:02:10,620
And it will also give you a keyword explorer.

47
00:02:10,650 --> 00:02:12,660
Now, we've talked about keyword explorer before.

48
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:14,910
It's very, very valuable stuff we pull up to.

49
00:02:14,910 --> 00:02:18,480
Buddy, you can use keyword Explorer to come up with great titles.

50
00:02:18,660 --> 00:02:21,210
So like great YouTube titles.

51
00:02:22,900 --> 00:02:27,880
And then I say, oh, wow, that's a very good topic and there's a decent amount of volume, the competition

52
00:02:27,970 --> 00:02:34,030
maybe you're doing like online arbitrage 2019 and you can tell me that's a pretty good one as well.

53
00:02:34,030 --> 00:02:36,520
The search volume isn't really there, but there's not that much competition.

54
00:02:36,670 --> 00:02:37,750
So you can play around with keywords.

55
00:02:37,750 --> 00:02:42,430
And obviously you can use this for with your title, your description and then also your tags as well.

56
00:02:42,430 --> 00:02:42,640
Right.

57
00:02:42,670 --> 00:02:45,380
So this is a highly, highly, highly valuable tool.

58
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,670
Plus, it's going to show you, you know, other tags that are very, very related that you might be

59
00:02:48,670 --> 00:02:49,260
able to rank for.

60
00:02:49,270 --> 00:02:51,040
So that's a great part of that as well.

61
00:02:51,190 --> 00:02:55,000
Now, one of the other things that you'll notice here is it shows you when you have to, buddy, it

62
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,010
shows you your rankings for certain things.

63
00:02:57,010 --> 00:02:57,220
Right.

64
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:01,360
So this video, my most popular video right now, it's starting to rangpur its ranks.

65
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,400
Second in YouTube search for BI subscribers.

66
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:07,400
It's ranked second for by subscribers on YouTube as ranked eighth by subscribers app.

67
00:03:07,420 --> 00:03:10,090
It's ranked third for how to buy subscribers and so on and so forth.

68
00:03:10,090 --> 00:03:11,590
You get the picture right now.

69
00:03:11,590 --> 00:03:12,430
It's a snowball.

70
00:03:12,430 --> 00:03:16,810
As this brings in more organic traffic, YouTube is going to start to see that it's bringing more organic

71
00:03:16,810 --> 00:03:18,300
traffic and people are finding it for that.

72
00:03:18,490 --> 00:03:21,880
So they're going to start suggesting it more to other people looking for that all over the platform

73
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:22,270
as well.

74
00:03:22,450 --> 00:03:24,670
Like, hence the snowball right now.

75
00:03:24,670 --> 00:03:28,840
To give you an example of another video, what Alex Becker doesn't want to know about Shopify, drop

76
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:29,220
shipping.

77
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,920
I'm ranked 11th for the death of drop shipping.

78
00:03:31,930 --> 00:03:34,060
I'm ranked ten for Alex Becker scam.

79
00:03:34,060 --> 00:03:36,670
I'm ranked third for Alex Becker, Shopify.

80
00:03:36,850 --> 00:03:39,100
All those are probably the Alex Becker Schöpflin.

81
00:03:39,100 --> 00:03:41,500
Alex Becker scam are probably pretty high targeted keywords.

82
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:45,250
If you don't know who Alex Becker is, he's just another entrepreneur that talks about online stuff.

83
00:03:45,790 --> 00:03:49,150
And in this video, I'm not like bashing him, but those are just the tags that I knew I could potentially

84
00:03:49,150 --> 00:03:49,690
rank for.

85
00:03:49,870 --> 00:03:54,850
So it's very, very valuable to actually use to buddy, and I highly recommend that you do so.

86
00:03:54,850 --> 00:03:59,680
Now, more importantly, if you don't want to use to buddy and you do need that 500 character limit,

87
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:04,600
what I recommend that you do is you just go to word counter dot net and that will basically count your

88
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:05,530
tags for you.

89
00:04:05,530 --> 00:04:07,570
You'll see here it literally counts your characters.

90
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,450
As I'm writing a description right there, it'll count your characters.

91
00:04:10,450 --> 00:04:17,290
So if you're going like, you know, YouTube subscribers, comma and then space, and then that's one

92
00:04:17,290 --> 00:04:17,620
tag.

93
00:04:17,620 --> 00:04:17,920
Right.

94
00:04:18,130 --> 00:04:30,370
And then how about, you know, YouTube subs, MySpace, YouTube, how about ranking for YouTube videos?

95
00:04:30,490 --> 00:04:30,870
Right.

96
00:04:30,940 --> 00:04:36,010
And I'm just these are bad examples of of you know, these are actually very un long term keywords.

97
00:04:36,010 --> 00:04:39,430
But I'm just going to give you an example of how you can use the character limit here, oneword counter

98
00:04:39,670 --> 00:04:42,670
to kind of tally up as close to five hundred characters as possible.

99
00:04:42,850 --> 00:04:48,640
And then once you go to actually put those in your your your tags on the back end of your video, when

100
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:53,650
you're actually uploading it, you will know exactly what is close to five hundred watts over so that

101
00:04:53,650 --> 00:04:55,600
you can upload it and what's not right.

102
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:57,550
So it's very, very valuable to do so.

103
00:04:57,670 --> 00:05:00,220
I highly recommend that you do that for your tags.

104
00:05:00,220 --> 00:05:04,210
If you don't want to use to buddy, if you do have to buddy, it will literally tell you what your limit

105
00:05:04,210 --> 00:05:07,360
is as you're typing them in, which is very, very valuable.

106
00:05:07,450 --> 00:05:09,940
And we'll save you a lot of time now.

107
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:12,490
Like I talked about, the longer tail keywords, right.

108
00:05:12,490 --> 00:05:14,310
So what are longer tail keywords first?

109
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,140
Well, short term, a short tail keyword would be like drop shipping.

110
00:05:17,350 --> 00:05:19,750
A short tail keyword would be like Shopify, right.

111
00:05:19,870 --> 00:05:20,920
It's super, super broad.

112
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:21,970
It's very, very small.

113
00:05:21,970 --> 00:05:26,350
And there's not that much there's a lot of search traffic for it, but there's a lot of competition

114
00:05:26,350 --> 00:05:27,580
to meet that search traffic.

115
00:05:27,580 --> 00:05:27,790
Right.

116
00:05:27,790 --> 00:05:31,000
So the chance that you're going to rank for that is not very high.

117
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:35,080
It's not very ideal to try to rank for that because a lot of the other other channels with a lot more

118
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:38,170
views and a lot of subscribers are already by default going to rank for that.

119
00:05:38,290 --> 00:05:41,260
And you really don't have that much opportunity there.

120
00:05:41,260 --> 00:05:41,530
Right.

121
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:46,210
So instead, what you want to do is I recommend going with a mix of, you know, General wants to potentially

122
00:05:46,210 --> 00:05:48,100
try to rank for them and longer tail.

123
00:05:48,250 --> 00:05:51,400
But you obviously want to go more longer tail the smaller you are.

124
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:51,640
Right.

125
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:56,320
So instead of like Shopify, maybe go like what Alex Baker doesn't want you to know about Shopify or

126
00:05:56,350 --> 00:05:56,860
Shopify.

127
00:05:56,860 --> 00:05:58,000
Drop shipping is dying.

128
00:05:58,060 --> 00:05:58,330
Right.

129
00:05:58,330 --> 00:06:01,930
That's longer tail then then, you know, just drop shipping or just Shopify.

130
00:06:01,930 --> 00:06:02,170
Right.

131
00:06:02,350 --> 00:06:06,460
I have a better chance as a smaller channel to potentially rank for that than just something very,

132
00:06:06,460 --> 00:06:08,620
very broad like Shopify or dropship.

133
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:09,010
Right.

134
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:13,360
So I highly recommend that you use longtail keywords, you know, when you're small and you can kind

135
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,430
of mix in one or two big ones here and there.

136
00:06:15,820 --> 00:06:20,500
But the key to keep in mind is go more longer, tail the smaller you are and then front load your most

137
00:06:20,500 --> 00:06:21,880
important keywords first.

138
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:25,900
So just like your description, what's at the top of your description has more weight.

139
00:06:25,900 --> 00:06:30,180
Seo wise, what's in the beginning of your title has more weight seo wise.

140
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:31,630
Same thing with tags, right.

141
00:06:31,630 --> 00:06:32,200
What's what.

142
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:33,430
The first couple tags.

143
00:06:33,430 --> 00:06:37,990
You know, I don't know if there's actual limit that that says like the first X amount of tags, but

144
00:06:38,020 --> 00:06:43,210
generally speaking the the more important keywords should go in the beginning of your keywords when

145
00:06:43,210 --> 00:06:44,500
you're actually putting your titles right.

146
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:45,340
Are your tags.

147
00:06:45,340 --> 00:06:45,730
Sorry.

148
00:06:45,970 --> 00:06:47,110
So that's something to keep in mind.

149
00:06:47,110 --> 00:06:48,220
A lot of important stuff.

150
00:06:48,220 --> 00:06:52,510
But one of the other methods that I like to do, too, is if you don't have time for this.

151
00:06:52,510 --> 00:06:56,380
And sometimes when I was, you know, repurposing content and I just didn't have a lot of time or I

152
00:06:56,380 --> 00:06:59,380
was looking for inspiration, I didn't really know what tags to go after.

153
00:06:59,650 --> 00:07:03,610
What I would do is let's say I wanted to create a video on like online arbitrage tutorials.

154
00:07:03,610 --> 00:07:03,880
Right.

155
00:07:04,030 --> 00:07:04,990
I always go back to that.

156
00:07:04,990 --> 00:07:06,820
But we're going to want to use that, for example.

157
00:07:06,820 --> 00:07:07,060
Right.

158
00:07:07,300 --> 00:07:11,050
So what I would do in that situation to find good tags if I didn't want to come up with myself or I

159
00:07:11,050 --> 00:07:16,120
didn't want to do keyword research on tags is I would literally go to YouTube and I would search online

160
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:17,560
arbitrage tutorial.

161
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:18,440
Right.

162
00:07:19,180 --> 00:07:20,830
And I would see what videos pop up.

163
00:07:20,830 --> 00:07:22,390
Obviously, I pop up XML.

164
00:07:22,620 --> 00:07:25,620
He pops up Amazon and eBay guru pop up, right?

165
00:07:25,650 --> 00:07:30,330
So what I would try to do is I would try to find a video that had a lot of use from a channel very,

166
00:07:30,330 --> 00:07:31,130
very similar to mine.

167
00:07:31,140 --> 00:07:31,340
Right.

168
00:07:31,350 --> 00:07:32,650
So this one would be pretty good.

169
00:07:32,670 --> 00:07:33,720
This one might be pretty good.

170
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:35,400
And this one probably is pretty, pretty good, too.

171
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,550
And obviously, I rang twice here as well.

172
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:41,510
So he's got 37, 37000 views and he made it 10 months ago.

173
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:41,790
Right.

174
00:07:42,030 --> 00:07:46,740
So if this video was very, very similar to what I was trying to teach in my video, what I can basically

175
00:07:46,740 --> 00:07:50,840
do is by having to be downloaded, I can see what tags he's ranking for.

176
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:51,090
Right.

177
00:07:51,270 --> 00:07:54,420
I can also see what tags he's he's, you know, put in.

178
00:07:54,540 --> 00:07:59,910
And then I can also copy those tags specifically, also my keyword keyboard, and then go to my video

179
00:07:59,910 --> 00:08:02,160
and add them in my as my tags.

180
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:02,400
Right.

181
00:08:02,550 --> 00:08:05,280
So I can basically steal other people's tags on related videos.

182
00:08:05,290 --> 00:08:09,810
I know that if this worked for this video specifically with a channel that's very, very similar in

183
00:08:09,810 --> 00:08:14,700
size to mine and a video that's very, very similar niche in topic wise to mine, then there's a good

184
00:08:14,700 --> 00:08:18,870
chance that my video can also use those tags and rank for those as well.

185
00:08:18,870 --> 00:08:19,140
Right.

186
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:25,200
So that's another little strategy that you can use that's very, very valuable and kind of saves you

187
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:26,010
a lot of time.

188
00:08:26,130 --> 00:08:29,130
But once again, you need somebody to do this, and I highly recommend it.
