To give your video context and help it get discovered, you’ll want to write an interesting description

that’s specific to your video. Summarize your video using complete sentences.

Vera writes a description about her business’ new collection of women’s wristwatches.

Step 2: Write a Description

TIP:

YouTube shortens your description in search results and below your video, so make the

most of your first two to three lines.

TIP:

You can add links to your website, channel, and playlist in your description. Just be sure

to include “http://” (e.g.,

http://www.youtube.com) or the link won’t work.
