Ready to hit publish on your YouTube video? Make sure you do these 5 things before you schedule your YouTube video.

01 Titles

I’m going to show you the five things you need to do before you hit publish on your YouTube videos. So, the first thing you need to do when you upload your video is, of course, create a title for your video.

This is important because this is good for SEO. It’s  what helps you get found on YouTube when people search for keywords. So you want to make sure to use keywords in your title.

So I know that this video (I’m uploading) is about uploading videos to YouTube, so I know that my title has to have “upload” and “YouTube” in it. Okay, so I’m going to name this video ‘How to upload and schedule your YouTube video from computer’.

02 Description

The second thing that’s great for SEO is your description. You want to make sure that you always have a description for your video. It’s also important to have your keywords in your description. You probably want to have one to two sentences and you want to make sure that they include the keywords that your target audience is searching for.

I made sure that the keywords “how to upload your video to YouTube” is included, “learn how to upload and schedule your video to YouTube”. Because I want to make sure that the people who are looking for ‘how to upload a video’ or ‘how to schedule a video for YouTube’ find me.

03 Tags

The next thing I want to do is create tags. Tags are also good for SEO. The tags I want to include are “how to upload your video to YouTube” “how to schedule your video” “how to schedule your YouTube videos” Okay so here are all the keywords that I want to use: “upload video to YouTube” “how to upload video” “upload video” “YouTube tips” “how to upload video on YouTube”

So you’ve filmed and edited your video, but now you need to upload it to YouTube. In this video, I’m gonna show you how to upload and schedule your video to YouTube.

Before we upload the video the first thing we need to do is, of course, log in to our YouTube account.

So, I’m already logged in. Now I’m gonna go to this little camera icon with the plus button. When you hover over it, it says ‘create a video or post’. So you just click on it. Then you have the option of uploading a video or going live. So we’re just gonna upload a video. Then you just need to select a file to upload. I’m just gonna pick this video right here.

So then we’re gonna go to the right where it says private. You can either make the video public or you can schedule the video. When you make the video public it’s gonna go live as soon as this video finishes uploading.

But I’m gonna schedule the video.

I’m gonna choose January 10th at 10:00 a.m. Then you see this little button right here, ‘publish on Thursday, January 10th’, and then click, and it’s scheduled. That’s how you upload a video to YouTube.

So now you know how to upload your video, but don’t hit publish yet. In the next video, I’m gonna show you the five things you need to do before you hit publish. So if you’re not subscribed go ahead and subscribe, and hit the little bell notification, and you’ll be notified when the new video comes out. I’ve also created a checklist for you.
