Wondering how to find low competition keywords for video marketing? In this YouTube keyword
research tutorial, you'll learn how to do YouTube SEO using a YouTube ranking software.
So let's get right into this SEO tips video on how to do keyword research for YouTube
for you to easily optimize a YouTube video and rank YouTube videos.
The best tool to do YouTube keyword research to boost your YouTube SEO efforts is vidIQ.
vidIQ has a free plan, though I use the Boost plan, which provides you with 50 daily ideas,
allows you to optimize 40 videos per month with the vidIQ keyword engine, track 20 competitors,
set up 5 trend alerts, has email and chat support, gives you access to the academy,
provides you with a video scorecard, live stats bar, bulk YouTube descriptions, keyword
research tool, most viewed videos, top tweets for videos, top trending videos, SEO title
and description recommendations, inline tag recommendations, thumbnail preview, compare
views, basic video analytics, keyword research tool, best time of day, bulk SEO optimizations,
dedicated SEO analytics, and channel wide tags.
You can either access vidIQ via their Chrome extension or website. There are a number of
ways that you can use vidIQ to find low competition keywords for video marketing. Once in your
vidIQ account, you'll be redirected to your dashboard where vidIQ will provide you with
keyword opportunities.
These top keyword opportunities are keywords that help viewers find your videos on YouTube.
In my case, the top keyword opportunities for my channel are how to do a webinar, Wix
landing page tutorial, create landing page Wix, free landing page Wix and webinars. For
each of these top keyword opportunities, vidIQ provides you with the search volume, competition
and overall score.
Still in the vidIQ dashboard, if you scroll down to the bottom of the page, you'll be
able to see the top search terms for your channel. These are the top search terms driving
views to your videos, which will help you immensely in terms of YouTube SEO and when
doing YouTube keyword research.
In my case, the top search terms for my channel are webinar, Wix landing page, how to add
hyperlink in PDF, landing page Wix and webinar tutorial. For each of these search terms,
vidIQ provides you with the number of views you get per keyword as well as the watch time.
You can also do YouTube SEO to find low competition keywords for video marketing using vidIQ in
the daily ideas section. Since I'm a vidIQ Boost user, the platform provides me with
50 daily ideas of videos that I can create that should rank well in YouTube search.
Not only do the daily ideas provide me with the idea itself, but also with a view prediction
that indicates the views that your channel could get from this idea, broken down into
very high, high and medium. You can save or dismiss these ideas to help vidIQ's AI give
you the topics best suited to your channel.
When you click on a daily idea, vidIQ will provide you with related videos on that topic,
so that you can see the exact title that was used, the channel that posted the video, the
number of subscribers that they have, how many views that video got and how long ago
the video was posted. You can view all of your saved ideas and dismissed ideas under
the tabs with the same names.
My favorite way to do YouTube keyword research to find low competition keywords for video
marketing using vidIQ is in the keywords section. Not only does vidIQ provide you with a longer
list of top keyword opportunities and top search terms for your channel compared to
the one they provide you in the dashboard, but you can also search for keywords using
the search bar up top.
For instance, say that I'm looking for keywords to add to this video on YouTube SEO. I'd go
ahead and search for YouTube SEO and see what comes up. For each keyword provided, vidIQ
will also give you the related score, which is a measure of how closely this keyword is
related to the keyword you searched for, search volume, which is the average number of time
people search for this exact keyword on YouTube each month, competition, which is a measure
of how many videos are competing for this keyword in YouTube search results, overall
score, which is a measure of how attractive this keyword is to you as a creator, and number
of words, which is the number of words in the keyword.
In terms of YouTube SEO, you can see that the related score is infinite, since that
is exactly what I searched for, the search volume is almost 350,000, the competition
is low, the overall score is 70, and the number of keywords is 2. vidIQ will then provide
you with a number of keywords that are related to the keyword you searched for, in our case,
YouTube SEO.
These include YouTube SEO tutorial, YouTube SEO 2021, YouTube SEO tips, YouTube SEO 2020
and how to rank YouTube videos. You can also sort these related keywords by each of these
columns from lowest to highest or highest to lowest.
Whenever I do YouTube keyword research, I like sorting the related keywords based on
overall score from highest to lowest, and then use these low competition keywords in
my YouTube video's title, description tags and script to boost my YouTube SEO and video
marketing.
Lastly, under this same keywords section, vidIQ provides you with trending videos. These
are the top trending videos for the search term you searched for, in our case, YouTube
SEO.
Just like with the related videos in the daily ideas section, vidIQ provides you with the
video's title, the channel that posted the video, how long ago the video was posted,
the number of views per hour and how many total views that video has gotten so far.
The top trending videos related to YouTube SEO are how to make $100 a day online, how
to get your first 1000 visitors with SEO and content marketing, how to write descriptions,
YouTube SEO 2022 - YouTube video ranking, and YouTube SEO complete - get more views
on YouTube videos - rank YouTube videos fast.
