Repeating tags !!

[Abdulla Alishaq]

Hey guys is repeating tags or the exact words in the descriptions help to rank my video like much easier to find?? for example say "how to win" write 4 times in tags and 2 times in descriptions ??

Don't do that. It's against YouTube's terms and conditions and will result in strikes. A lot of channels have been closed down for doing that. Just because you've seen others do it, doesn't mean it's ok. It measns they haven't been caught yet.

And anyway, google are smart. Their algorithm can detect long lists of spam and at best will ignore it and at worst will penalise it by pushing it down the search results (they have been doing this for over 10 years on google search so they have the know how).

Please select a reasonable number of tags that most closely reflect your video content. Please also only add tags to the tag section of your metadata. Adding additional tags to the description of your video may constitute spam and can result in the removal of your video.

It's against ToS, and honestly does not help your video more than if you were to only tag it once.

Put the keyterms once in the tags and then use them effectively in your descriptions. Rather than your keyterms pasted 4 times in the description write a little blurb with those terms included.

I see a lot of top youtubers put massively many combinations of keywords on bottom of descriptions on their videos, i put some too in my videos, does it help or only make your videos rank worst?

It's against Youtubes ToS, and can get your channel terminated. Many channels have been getting terminated for this lately. Even channels with 2M+subs
