YouTube Begins Embracing the Hashtag For Titles Descriptions & Tags

I couldn,t resist 5hinking of the old viral picture of a schoolgirl in class. She stared at the blackboard a difficult equation and there was a bubble thought of her "sc*rew it, i,m gonna be a stripper!" :)

Title
description
tags
hashtags
keywords
phrases,
written
and spoked in the video.

Doubled, tripled etc. actions for other social media promotion.

From a point of view it is good for me as long as it helps against (upcoming) alzheimer :D :p

On the other hand, it is kind of waste of time in an oversaturated mostly free offered whatever stuff videomarket. Sorry for the cynical opinion...
 
I tried some tags in one of my old videos and also one of my new ones. The new one got 2000 views within a day. Will keep on monitoring it to see if it makes a difference.

Here is a screenshot of how it looks above a video.

I'm a tad confused. Is there a seperate box to add them or do you add them to the title and the actual # dissapears?

No it is not a seperate box, but you can add the hashtags into your descriptions, video title or as keywords. You just add the hashtags.

Have a look at how the hashtags look in my analytics. So i will be adding hashtags in all of my videos old and new.
