Have you ever wanted to create a video around a topic that you already researched? With Tag Management, you can take the tags from existing videos and add them to your most recent uploads so you can optimize them faster than ever.
Just copy the tags, create a new list, and you’re done. It’s like giving your newest content a head start in the race for views and engagement.

How will adding tags help me rank my videos on YouTube and Google?
Tags are descriptive keywords you can add to your video to help viewers find your content. This is especially important in the early stages of your channel when you don’t have a large following and YouTube’s algorithm isn’t familiar with your content.
Even though tags aren’t the most important part in your channel’s visibility, tags do help YouTube’s algorithms to understand what your videos are about. Optimizing your video titles, optimizing thumbnails, and optimizing descriptions are most important for getting your videos get discovered.
How often does Tag Management update the tag rankings?
Tag Management updates the tag rankings automatically using YouTube’s API. That means you’ll get real-time rankings for your video tags.
