YouTube Description Best Practices
- Write the first sentence as if it were a standalone meta description for Google — clear, keyword-rich, and compelling
- Use the full 5,000 character limit for long educational or tutorial videos
- Add video chapter timestamps for any video longer than 5 minutes
- Include your website URL early in the description to drive website traffic
- Always add a subscribe prompt with a direct link to your channel subscription URL
- End every description with 3 to 5 relevant hashtags — never more than 15 total
- Avoid copying the same description across multiple videos — YouTube penalizes duplicate descriptions
- Update descriptions on older underperforming videos with fresh keywords
