Visionary Video helps maximize reach by optimizing AI-generated content for search engines and social algorithms. Learn to craft compelling titles, tags, and thumbnails that drive clicks and signal relevance to platforms like YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram.
BLUF: You generated a masterpiece, but nobody is watching it. The algorithm doesn't have eyes—it reads metadata. This guide cuts the fluff and shows you the exact titles, tags, and thumbnails that get AI videos ranked on YouTube and TikTok.
Ranking Factors
Why Good Video Fails
YouTube receives 500 hours of video every minute. TikTok is even faster. If you don't tell the algorithm exactly what your AI video is (e.g., "Cyberpunk City" or "Abstract Loop"), it won't know who to show it to.
Luck vs. Strategy
3 Keyword Hacks for AI Creators
- Ride the Trend: If a new model drops (e.g., "Sora"), put it in your title even if you used a different tool with a similar style. "Sora-style AI Video".
- Explain the Prompt: People search for prompts. "AI Video: 'Cat wearing sunglasses' Prompt Test".
- Tool Names matter: Always tag the tool (e.g., #VisionaryAI). Fans of the tool search for these tags to see examples.
Thumbnail Tips
- Contrast is King: AI video can be dark or messy. Use an image upscaler to make your thumbnail crisp and bright.
- Before/After: Split screen thumbnails (Prompt vs. Result) get insanely high click-through rates.
