What is vidIQ used for?

vidIQ is used to grow a YouTube channel. Creators use it to find video ideas, research the keywords viewers type into YouTube search, write better titles, descriptions and tags, follow what competitors publish and understand which of their own videos bring in views and subscribers.

How does vidIQ's keyword score work?

The browser extension adds a panel next to YouTube videos with stats such as views per hour, engagement and the tags a video uses, so you can see why it is performing. In YouTube Studio, it helps you check your title, description and tags while you prepare an upload.
