Title optimization tips
Your title is the most important factor for getting clicks. Here's how to optimize it.
Title best practices
- Keep it under 60 characters — longer titles get cut off
- Front-load keywords — put important words first
- Create curiosity — make viewers want to know more
- Be specific — vague titles don't get clicks
- Match your thumbnail — title and thumbnail should tell the same story
