YouTube Channel Description

The About section of your channel won’t be visited too regularly, I’ll admit that.

However your About section needs to be informative and enticing to hook browsers that do find it and even if no one ever sees it, the keywords you use in it can help you rank in search for the key terms you’re targeting.

With the above in mind you want to make sure that your description hits the following 5 points:

• Make it Keyword rich
• Sell yourself
• Outline your schedule
• Include Custom links (more on that in the next section)
• Add a Business emailFor more detail on each point check out my article
