Free YouTube Hashtag Generator
Describe your video or channel and get three different hashtag sets to try.
About this tool
YouTube shows the first few hashtags from a video description above the title, so a short, relevant set matters more than a long one. This generator writes three sets with a different strategy each so you can compare them.
How to use it
- Describe the video or channel.
- Choose how many hashtags you want in each set.
- Copy a set and add it to the video description in YouTube Studio.
Example
Beginner woodworking with hand tools, 5 per set
You get (one of several)#woodworking #handtools #beginnerwoodworking #diyfurniture #woodworkingprojects
Tips for better results
- Use a few relevant tags. YouTube ignores hashtags if a video has too many.
- Make the first tag your main topic, because it can show above the title.
- Match the tags to what the video really covers.
- Test one set per video and note the results.

How many hashtags should I use on YouTube?
A small set is best. YouTube ignores all hashtags on a video that has more than 15, and shows only the first few above the title.
Where do I put YouTube hashtags?
In the video description or the title. Hashtags in the description can appear above the title.
Do hashtags help YouTube Shorts?
They add context about the topic. They are one signal among many and will not make a Short go viral alone.
Does the tool know what is trending?
No. It writes tags from your topic only.
