When you start your Youtube Keyword Research process first you need to find or know your seed keywords for your video.

Seed keywords are those words that are equivalent to topics that you want to produce content about, and usually, they are broader and have high search volume but also very high SEO competition.

A high SEO competition is one of the reasons why we don’t use these keywords directly in the content instead, we find the longtail versions of them that have lower competition and lower SEO difficulty.

You need to know the content of the video, you need to know what is the video talking about (video content).

If you do not know what the video is talking about you need to watch the video and ask yourself “What is this video talking about?”, or “How you would search for this video on Youtube?”.

It’s good to find approximately two seed keywords for every video.

Search for the Seed Keywords in Google and Youtube and copy the related keywords from Google and youtube autocomplete.

Make a list of around 8 related keywords.

So now you have a list of around 10 keywords (2 Seed + 8 Related), open your youtube keyword tool and paste those keywords in there.

Some tools offer Youtube keyword research for video SEO and if you have access to these kinds of tools then continue the process in those tools, if not you can always use Google Keyword Planner.

In your chosen SEO tool continue to do the keyword research process in the same way you would do for SEO for Google.

Find the keywords with a good monthly search volume and that are easy to rank for.

If you want your research to be even more complete then we would prefer you to do the competition research.

Go to Youtube and make search for your Seed Keyword and open the video on top of the search result page.

Open the source code of the video and in HTML code search (Ctrl+F) for the tag and there you can find the keyword tags used by your competition.

You can continue the same process for the second Seed Keyword and for other related keywords that you have found with the keyword research done before.
