But there are also some YouTube text, like keyword tags, that may not be as valuable as you think. Today, Gwen and Dane go through the different ways you can add text to your YouTube videos to help them get more views.

DANE GOLDEN:
“YouTube has enough AI and experience and data to know what, in general, your video is about, what, in general, your channel is about, and who, in general, wants to see that video and that channel. And just because you put a tag on it that says ‘click here for a million dollars’ does not mean you’re going to get a ton of views.”
