YouTube Title & Description Generator

Enter your topic to get title ideas based on YouTube's own search suggestions, each checked for length, plus a description template with your keywords, chapters and hashtags.

How to write a YouTube title and description

  1. 01

    Enter the topic

    Type what your video is about, and optionally a few keywords you want to rank for.

  2. 02

    Pick a title

    Each idea is built from a phrase people search for and shows its length, so you can see if it will be cut off.

  3. 03

    Edit the description

    Fill in the bracketed parts of the description template, then copy it into YouTube Studio.

Ideas, not finished copy

The titles start from search phrases YouTube suggests for your topic, so they use words people actually type. They're starting points: the best title describes your video honestly and makes someone want to click, which only you can judge.

The description puts your main keyword in the first lines, which show in search results, and leaves bracketed spaces for what the video covers, chapters, links and hashtags. Replace each bracket before you publish.

Frequently asked questions

How long should a YouTube title be?

YouTube allows 100 characters, but titles over about 70 are often cut off on phones and in suggested videos. Keep the important words at the start.

Is this an AI title generator?

No. The titles are built from YouTube's own search suggestions for your topic, so every one is based on a real search rather than invented.

What should a YouTube description include?

A first line or two that say what the video is about with your main keyword, a short summary, chapters if the video is long, useful links and a few hashtags.

Why are there square brackets in the description?

They mark the parts only you can write, like what the video covers. YouTube doesn't allow < or > in descriptions, so the template uses square brackets.
