Part 5/9:
Hashtags are a powerful tool for visibility on YouTube, but their misplacement can result in lost views. It’s advised to utilize hashtags strategically: for long-form videos, they should only appear at the bottom of the description, with a maximum of three. In contrast, for Shorts, they can be included in both the title (at the end) and the description—again, limiting them to three relevant, high-volume hashtags.
By focusing your hashtags on high-volume terms and ensuring they relate directly to your content, you increase the chances of reaching the right audience who will engage genuinely with your video.
