WHAT IS VIDIQ
vidIQ is a YouTube growth and SEO tool. Connect your channel and it surfaces video ideas, keywords, titles, descriptions, tags, and competitor data — turning guesswork into a repeatable process.
Daily & AI-suggested topics matched to your channel
Search volume, competition & viewer intent
What similar channels are getting views on
CTR, retention & watch-time diagnostics
STEP 01 – 02
Look for: strong search volume, reasonable competition, clear intent — not just the biggest number.
STEP 03
Not keyword stuffing — a title compelling enough that someone wants to click.
STEP 04
Ideas, titles, descriptions, keywords, hooks, scripts & thumbnail concepts — treat every suggestion as raw material, never finished content.
STEP 05

A viewer should read the emotion before they read a single word.
2–4 punchy words max — never the whole title on the image.
Clear expression, high contrast, uncluttered background.
STEP 06 – 07
Tags matter far less than:
Use a handful of relevant tags — not hundreds of loosely related keywords.
STEP 08
Reverse-engineer why a video worked instead of recreating it.
That gap is a strong signal the topic, title & packaging have real demand.
STEP 09
Track the funnel: Impressions → CTR → Retention → Watch time → Subscribers
| WHAT YOU SEE | LIKELY ISSUE |
|---|---|
| Low impressions | Topic / audience fit |
| High impressions + low CTR | Thumbnail / title |
| Good CTR + poor retention | Opening / content |
| Good retention + low impressions | Topic / distribution |
| Views but few subscribers | Weak channel positioning |
