YouTube title and description

A YouTube title and description prompt turns your transcript or approved outline into accurate video metadata.
This template develops several title angles, a concise opening description and relevant supporting details while
keeping the hook tied to what viewers will actually see inside.

❝Give the right viewer a clear reason to click and stay.

Copyable prompt

Create YouTube metadata for [VIDEO_TOPIC] using [TRANSCRIPT_OR_APPROVED_OUTLINE] as the content authority. Audience: [AUDIENCE]. Main search intent: [SEARCH_INTENT]. Primary phrase: [PRIMARY_PHRASE]. Channel voice: [VOICE]. Approved links: [LINKS].

Write six title options across practical, curiosity-led and story-led angles. Keep every title faithful to the video. Include a character count for each and identify the clearest option with one sentence of reasoning. Avoid unsupported superlatives, fabricated stakes and promises the video does not deliver.

Open the description with two sentences explaining the video’s value. Add a short summary, supplied links and one relevant CTA. Include up to three focused hashtag suggestions. Use the primary phrase naturally.

Create chapters only when accurate timestamps are supplied in [VERIFIED_TIMESTAMPS]. Otherwise omit chapters and ask for a timestamped transcript in separate editor notes. Do not invent upload dates, sponsors, credits, cast identities or performance claims. For a series, preserve [OFFICIAL_SERIES_AND_EPISODE_NAMES]. Keep all unresolved facts outside the publishable description.

Example inputs:

Lighting Series EP-03

> Tutorial demonstrating three product-lighting setups; beginners; tabletop lamp,
reflector and window; no timestamps supplied.

Quality guard preflight note

Verify transcript accuracy before generating metadata. Omit chapters without exact timestamps; never fabricate subscriber claims or artificial curiosity hooks.

No. It helps draft clearer, relevant metadata; performance requires
observation.
