YouTube Tag Generator
Enter your video's topic to get tags taken from YouTube's own search suggestions, the phrases people really type, already trimmed to fit YouTube's 500-character limit.
How to generate tags for a YouTube video
- 01
Enter the topic
Type the main keyword or phrase your video is about, like "easy pasta recipe".
- 02
Pick your tags
Tags that fit the 500-character limit are selected for you. Untick any that don't describe your video and tick others instead.
- 03
Copy into YouTube Studio
Copy the selected tags, separated by commas, and paste them into the Tags box in YouTube Studio.
Where the tags come from
Every suggested tag is a search phrase YouTube's own search box suggests for your topic, so each one is something people really look for. Nothing is invented by AI, and phrases are listed in the order YouTube ranks them.
YouTube says tags play a small role in how videos are found, mostly helping with words people misspell. Your title, thumbnail and description matter far more, so use a handful of accurate tags rather than filling the box.
Frequently asked questions
How many tags should I use?
There's no required number. A handful of accurate tags that describe the video works well; YouTube only allows 500 characters in total.
How does the character count work?
It counts like YouTube Studio: each tag's letters, plus the commas between tags, plus two for the quote marks Studio adds around tags with a space.
Are these tags made up by AI?
No. They're YouTube's own search suggestions for your topic, the same ones you see when typing in the YouTube search box.
Can I get tags in other languages?
Yes. Type your topic in the language you want and the suggestions come back in that language.
Do tags still matter on YouTube?
A little. YouTube says they mostly help when a word is often misspelled. Titles, thumbnails and descriptions matter much more for being found.
