Frequently Asked Questions
What is the YouTube video title character limit?
YouTube video titles can be up to 100 characters long. However, YouTube recommends keeping titles under 70 characters for optimal display across all devices. Titles longer than 70 characters may be truncated in search results and suggested videos.
How long can a YouTube description be?
YouTube video descriptions can be up to 5,000 characters. Only the first 100-150 characters appear above the fold before viewers click "Show more". Place your most important keywords and links in the first two lines for maximum visibility and SEO benefit.
What is the YouTube tag character limit?
Each individual YouTube tag can be up to 500 characters, and the total combined length of all tags is limited to 500 characters. Use specific, relevant tags rather than broad ones. YouTube recommends using tags that accurately describe your video content.
