SEO Tip: Use YouTube As A Keyword Tool

Other than being successful in the field of SEO as a venue for getting more site traffic through multimedia, YouTube now gives SEO a new advantage. That advantage is through keyword research.


You can actually use YouTube as your keyword tool for selecting target keywords for different sites. It can help you find relevant data of topics and keywords that you may not be aware of.


It is easily accessible and is free compared to other software and applications that offer the same service. The best feature of YouTube, making it better from other tools, is that Google prompts its users to give a description of the topic which these searchers are looking for.


Titles, tags, and explanations make it easier for the whole system to look for a particular content or video. This can give you a lot of information about the topic that can be very valuable to the reader.


Along with the data stated on descriptions, there also several related searches or videos that will appear on the right side of the page. You can easily click on these videos to give you more information.


From the specific keyword search alone that you type into YouTube, you can get a lot of searches. You get more related searches from related keywords and topics that will display on their searches.


Take for example you are searching on how-to or do-it-yourself videos. When you search them, it gives you several videos that contain these keywords and that could be a whole lot of searches right there.


When you are done scanning through all those how-to videos, you can get ideas on which are really big hits and you can also jot down the ideas on the video and the description box to help you. After jotting them down, you can search further on other keyword targeting tools of your choice which ones are the best keywords for your content.


The tags on these videos can also be your source of information for great keywords. So you might as well jot them down too.


You can easily use this together with other keyword tools. The important thing is you know where to start from; you know which words will most likely get a good audience.


YouTube is a worldwide phenomenon and with your searches you can get information from a wider audience which you can narrow down with other keyword tools that will give you a more specific search of which keywords you should target for search engine rankings.


So it's safe to say that YouTube does not only enable you to share informative videos to your audience. You can also use this as a tool to know what your audience is interested in the most.
