When I use tubebuddy, my SEO score is always like 60-70. How do people get 100? Does it even matter?

100% SEO score doesn't guarantee views. i've had 100% score videos flop and 40% score videos blow up

But here's how to get 100%:

• Keyword in video title (as close to beginning as possible)
• Keyword in description (first 2-3 sentences)
• Keyword said in video (youtube transcribes everything)
• Tags include keyword + variations
• Video length over 10 minutes
• Add cards and end screens
• Add chapters/timestamps

Takes like 10 extra minutes per video

But honestly i stopped caring about perfect scores. focus on making content people actually want to watch

SEO gets people to click. quality keeps them watching. both matter

I ignore seo scores completely now

I had a video with 95% tubebuddy score get 200 views.
I also had a video with 35% score get 50k views

The algorithm doesn't care about your tubebuddy score. it cares about:

• Click through rate
• Watch time
• Engagement

SEO helps with search traffic but most views come from suggested and browse features anyway

Make good thumbnails and hooks. that matters way more than perfect seo scores
