How do I use *YouTube tags* properly?? - ChoskarChulian - 10-22-2011

Helloes! =P
As you may know I´m quite serious when it comes to YouTube, but I ain´t sure how exactly the tags work.
I am aware of the words I should choose when it comes to what people search for, but what I´m having problems with, are the "structured" things like if I need to place commas or quotation marks (to set together groups of words) and if so, where to put them and what exactly to they do.

Also is it smarter to only have a few tags, alot like 50,60 or something in Between?
Help would be much appreciated. Smile

I'm quite sure you don't need to use commas between the words, at least I don't.

Put spaces around each separate term.
If you want a term with more than one word, put quotation marks around it. For instance, "teenage mutant ninja turtles" would show up with one single term that the search engine will relate your video to.

Do commas work, too?

Commas work, but they are removed/ignored during parsing. Just stick to spaces for separating terms/phrases.

What means "parsing"?
