Best Practices for YouTube Tags
Do This
Use your main keyword as the first tag.
Mix broad (e.g., "cooking") and specific (e.g., "vegan lasagna recipe") tags.
Use 5-8 highly relevant tags rather than stuffing 20 irrelevant ones.
Avoid This
Don't use misleading tags that have nothing to do with your video.
Don't put tags in your video description (this is against YouTube policy).
Don't use overly generic tags like "video" or "new".
