        Hi,

        There are several areas you need to populate in order to make your video rank well. I've summarised the main areas below, but there are also lots of good articles on this subject so I've included several further reading links.

        • Video Titles

        These are the equivalent of title tags, so make sure you use keyword-rich, descriptive (and user-friendly!) titles here. You have 99 characters

        • Description

        Populate your description with keyword-rich content. The more content, the better (500 chraracters max) - but make sure it looks attractive to users! Use this field to include links back to your site and to encourage ratings, embedding, sharing and commenting

        • Ratings & interaction

        Videos with better ratings usually rank better - so encourage your viewers to rank the videos and to comment (little tip - you can 'like' your own video to get started)

        • Populate Tags

        These tell YouTube what the video is about and therefore makes it more likely to appear for relevant searches.
