    If you don't know about the importance of filling out your description, in the great words of Kevin Hart "you gonna learn today!"

    For tags, I go crazy with them! But, I am going to mention something that is HEAVILY over looked and that is, the description!! The following is from personal experience!

    Fun fact time!

    When people are looking for video, YouTube uses tags and titles, but, it also uses every last word of your description as a search material. This is because some people cant find the precise video they are looking for and some type out the premise. For example, if someone is looking up Labyrinth, but cant remember what it is, they would type a broad statement like Singing Goblin King or David Bowey and Muppets. They could find it through the description of the movie in the description section of the video. I fill mine with as much information as possible. This could even include a description of the game that was written by the creators! For example, I copy this description in my Pokémon videos:

    "Pokémon Gold Version and Silver Version are the second installments of the Pokémon series of role-playing video games, developed by Game Freak and published by Nintendo for the Game Boy Color"

    So many different key words located in there, and the best part is YouTube searches them all! Maybe even leave a link to the publishers or dev teams website helps them out a bit too and if they watch your video, they really appreciate that time you took a lot (they might even follow you)! Don't forget to leave links to your social networks as well!

    I really hope this helps anyone on here!
