See the difference
Same artist, same track. One writes alone, one uses Textlino.
"New music video! Subscribe for more. #music #newmusic"
"Watch the official video for 'Midnight Signal'. Credits: Prod. @studio / Mix @engineer. Chapters: 0:00 Intro, 0:45 Verse 1, 2:10 Chorus. Stream everywhere: [links]."
What makes a good YouTube music video description?
The description is where viewers find the streaming link, the credits and the story behind the video, and it's one of the texts YouTube reads to understand what the video is. The first lines show above the 'more' button, so they need to say who, what and where to listen. Timestamps turn into chapters when they follow YouTube's format.
- • Opening lines: artist, song and one sentence about the video
- • Streaming link right after the opening
- • Chapters: at least three timestamps, starting at 0:00
- • Credits: writers, producer, mix, director
- • Social links and three or four relevant hashtags
Why music video descriptions often fall short
We built Textlino because we kept running into the same problems.
'New track out now lol' isn't a description
Many artists paste the same two lines under every video. Viewers who want the credits, the lyrics or the streaming link don't find them.
People search YouTube for music
Artist name, song title and genre in the text help the video show up for people looking for exactly that.
Missing credits look careless
Producers, mixers and directors expect to be credited, and labels, bookers and music supervisors notice when they aren't.
It's one more task on release day
When the video is finally done, writing a proper description is the last thing anyone has energy for.
Good to know
Platform rules worth checking before you write.
