FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What factors does the SEO score check?
The tool analyses the video title (length, keyword placement, character count), description (length, keyword usage, links, timestamps), tags (count and coverage), engagement rate (view-to-like and view-to-comment ratios), and whether a custom thumbnail is set.
How is the SEO score calculated?
The score is calculated by awarding points for each SEO best practice the video follows. Each factor has a weighted contribution to the total score out of 100. Videos that follow all best practices for title, description, tags, and engagement score highest.
Can I check the SEO score of any YouTube video?
You can check the SEO score of any public YouTube video. Private, unlisted, or age-restricted videos cannot be analysed.
Does a high SEO score guarantee better ranking?
A high SEO score means the video follows YouTube's published best practices for metadata and engagement. This improves the chance of the video being discovered through search, but ranking is ultimately determined by many additional factors including watch time, click-through rate, and competition.
What is the most important factor for YouTube SEO?
Watch time and click-through rate are the most important ranking signals for YouTube's algorithm. However, the title, thumbnail, and first few lines of the description are the main drivers of click-through rate, which is why optimising these elements matters.
Does the tool store the video URLs I check?
No. The video URL is used only to retrieve public metadata from the YouTube API. No data is stored on the server or your browser.
