SEO Optimization

Keyword Research

seo_strategy:
  primary_keyword:
    placement:
      - title_start
      - description_first_line
      - first_tag
    research_tools:
      - YouTube Search Suggest
      - TubeBuddy
      - VidIQ
      - Google Trends

  title_formula:
    patterns:
      - "How to {{action}} {{keyword}} ({{year}})"
      - "{{number}} {{keyword}} Tips for {{audience}}"
      - "{{keyword}} Tutorial for Beginners"
      - "{{keyword}} vs {{competitor}} - Which is Better?"

    best_practices:
      - Front-load keywords
      - 60 characters max
      - Include power words
      - Add brackets/parentheses

  description_structure:
    - Hook (first 150 chars - visible in search)
    - Keywords naturally integrated
    - Timestamps
    - Links and CTAs
    - Hashtags (3-5 max)

Tag Strategy

tag_strategy:
  order:
    1: exact_match_keyword
    2: broad_match_keyword
    3: related_keywords
    4: channel_tags
    5: long_tail_variations

  example:
    video_topic: "Python Tutorial"
    tags:
      - "python tutorial"
      - "python tutorial for beginners"
      - "learn python"
      - "python programming"
      - "python crash course"
      - "coding tutorial"
      - "programming for beginners"
      - "{{channel_name}}"

  avoid:
    - Irrelevant tags
    - Competitor channel names
    - Misleading tags
    - Excessive tags (>15)
