The difference btw "Video" & "Channel" tags

I Love YTtalk
Hi guys!
1-So what is the difference between the two tags?
2-what is the proper way to set a channel tag?
3-and why you tube search engine results through mobile handsets are different than those results through desktops?


Your feedback is appreciated!

Video tags are specific to each video, while channel tags are relevant to your channel. I haven't seen too much of a benefit to channel tags (e.g., channels will generally only show up when you actually search for the channel name and not when you search for tags that are associated with the channel.)
 
channel tags are important because Your channel should appear on the search query ^^
And sometime, I use to search for channels and not videos... Am I the only one? xD[DOUBLEPOST=1450158853,1450158824][/DOUBLEPOST]You should define what are the main topics of your uploads ^^
 
if you're searching for a channel, do you search for a channel name or do you search for terms that might be associated with the channel?

For example, if I search for my channel name, then my channel is the top result.

But if I search for terms that are in my channel tags, then maybe some of my videos will show up, but *not* the link to my channel directly.

each video has its own tag and that's why i am asking what is the benefit of channel tag and does it affect the search results of each video uploaded on that channel.

one more thing i would like to ask, why you tube search results through mobile handsets are different than those results through desktops?!! i noticed this two days back ?!!
