Hi Folks,

Here's a quick video on How To Add Hash Tags To Your YouTube Videos.

This is a relatively new feature that YouTube has rolled out. It is available to all Youtube accounts, not just ones with many subscribers or millions of views.

You can add hashtags to YouTube videos either in the Video Title or above the title. I prefer to add them above the title as it looks cleaner and more professional.

I've gone ahead and edited hundreds of my YouTube videos on one of my channels to see if there are any benefits from it on older videos.

I've added these hashtags to many of my videos that are related to Drumless Jazz Backing Tracks:

#BackingTracks #JazzBackingTracks #DrumlessBackingTracks

I'm raking high for #JazzBackingTracks and #DrumlessBackingTracks

See results and examples here: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=#DrumlessBack...

I will keep this post updated with new information on how it goes and what the long-term effect is.

Have you tried hashtags in your videos? Do you see any benefits? Please feel free to leave your comments below and click the like button on this video.

Thanks,
Greg

P.S.

If your looking for more YouTube Subscribers, I added a post for WA members to share your channel.

Thank you Greg for this video.

As you know there are some of us who have never created a video and were putting it off due to not being comfortable about it.

I of course was one of those people. I did finally create one.
What program are you using for your videos?

Once I get brave enough to post one to YouTube or anywhere outside of WA, this will definitely come in handy.

It is always a good idea to boost ways of getting more traffic, and I wouldn't even have thought of adding hashtags.

Thank you
Lee Ann

I use ScreenFlow and Camtasia for making and editing my videos. The above video was just ScreenFlow.

This could be a game changer if you are the first to use a hashtag on your videos. Maybe. We will wait and see.
