220 of 500 characters used (commas and spaces included). Edit before pasting so every tag matches your video.
Hashtags for the description
#recipe #cooking #homecooking
Put these at the end of the description. YouTube may show the first three above the title; if a video has more than 60 hashtags, YouTube ignores all hashtags per video; going over 15 causes all hashtags to be ignored.
How to adapt this set
- Put the exact dish name first.
- Add diet labels such as vegetarian only when accurate.
- Include the cooking time or method if it is in the title.
Tags play a small role next to your title, thumbnail and description. Use them for spelling variations and related phrases, and make sure each one describes the video. Need something more specific? Try theYouTube tag generator.
