You're doing keyword research wrong. Do this instead.

YouTube doesn't rank videos because you got the right keywords crammed into the right spaces. Doing so doesn't convince YouTube that your video is worth surfacing for anyone. They look at viewer signals instead. So instead of doing keyword research, we recommend you do topic research. What's topic research? How do you research your video ideas before hitting record so that you can make a fundamentally better video? Good questions! That's what we discuss in this episode.
