Provide Contents That People Want To See

Optimizing Your Video Description
No matter which video sites you want to upload your videos to, you should pay attention when you are describing your video. There are at least three places that you should think about:
- Title: An eye-catching, keyword stuffed and descriptive title is very important. It determines whether other people will be interested in or not. Try to use words like “How To Do Something” or “Seven Techniques To Solve a Problem”.
- Description: Your description should accurately describe what is inside your video. It does not need to be long but it has to be concise and descriptive.
- Keyword: These are words that related to your video. People will be able to easily find your videos if you add appropriate keywords.
Now after you upload your videos, the next step is to gain as much exposure as possible.
