Hi all, so as usual I'm overthinking things :help: I'm worried about title length for my videos. Is it better to be short and concise (making sure to include my keywords). Or long and descriptive?

Let me give you an example. I want to make a series of videos about the bosses I encounter in this game I'm playing. I plan to make a video for each boss (every 100 levels) and how to beat them. So should my title be something short like: Game Name Bosses Level 100
or can I be more descriptive like: Game Name Bosses Level 100 Julius -Ep 1

The 2nd title would show the name of the boss and that this is episode 1

Does either hurt/help my SEO?

From my understanding, the more keywords, the better. I watched a video where PewDiePie explained how one of his videos gained multiple views.

Its up to you. But you need to make sure you use related keywords. In this case do some research on how other gaming channels are using their title and also use different online tools that help you to determine what kind of keywords to use.

Most importand keyword should be included in first 160 symbols of title. This is meta block.
