All About YouTube Hashtags: Beauty and the Vlog Podcast 66
Instagram does it. Facebook does it. Now, YouTube is doing it. YouTube silently announced a few months ago that it would begin rolling out the ability to search for videos using hashtags. We are used to using this feature on Instagram, so it makes sense for YouTube hashtags. Sometimes we don’t want YouTube to decide what we see based upon their mysterious algorithm. NOW, you can search via hashtag to see not only the most popular videos that have been updated featuring that hashtag, but the most recent videos as well. Read on for info on YouTube hashtags or click on pink bar below to listen to audio podcast version of this post. You can also listen to it on iTunes
What does this mean for you, the content creator?
Different Uses for YouTube Hashtag Video Search
How do I get started with YouTube hashtags?
- Don’t use spaces when using YouTube hashtags.
- The maximum limit to hashtags used per video is 15. If you go over that limit, they actually will not count any of the tags and your video has the potential to be flagged.
- Hashtags need to be related to your video.
- Nothing inappropriate such as hate speech, vulgarity, swear words or sexual content.
That’s it! This is all the info you need pertaining to YouTube hashtag searches. Comment below if you have any other ideas for using hashtags in YouTube.
