YouTube Description Generator FAQ
Questions, answered.
How long can a YouTube description be?
5,000 characters. Only the first line or two show before “more”, so the generator writes a first line that works in search.
Is the YouTube description generator free?
Yes. You can generate descriptions without signing up. We only use what you type to write them and don’t store it.
Do hashtags work in YouTube descriptions?
Yes. YouTube can show hashtags from the description above the video title, and they link to other videos with the same tag. Three specific ones are plenty.
How do I add chapters to a YouTube video?
Add timestamps to the description, starting with 0:00, each on its own line with a title. YouTube turns them into chapters when there are at least three.
Does the description help a video rank?
It helps YouTube understand what the video is about. Describe it in the words people search for, for viewers first, never as a keyword list.
