How to Find YouTube Keywords

Today I have two YouTube keyword search strategies to share:

YouTube’s Autocomplete Feature

YouTube has something called predictive search. As you start to type in the YouTube search box, a drop-down list of suggestions appears.

These searches are highly searched terms related to your original search term. As you continue typing, the results update based on your typing.

If you don’t see the results you want, keep typing and the results will update.

YouTube autocomplete is a must to find YouTube keywords.

Google’s Autocomplete Feature

Google’s autocomplete search features works in a similar fashion to YouTube search. Just start typing your general idea for a topic and the Google autocomplete suggestion drop-down appears.

These results are the most popular searches from real people.

As an added bonus, once you type in a search term, scroll to the bottom of the page for Google Related Keywords.

Using these methods for the best keywords for YouTube videos will give an endless supply of topics to create videos about.

Start keeping a file on your computer with a list of keywords that you can refer back to at any time.

And remember to include your YouTube keyword phrases into the video title, description and tags for best results.
