A YouTube video audit surfaces the SEO and engagement factors that most creators never think to check. Is your title the right length? Does your description have enough body? Are your tags in the sweet spot? Is your engagement rate above niche average? This tool grades all of it from YouTube's public API data and gives you a prioritized fix list.
Title length (under 60 chars = good for SERP), description depth (150+ chars shows YouTube you took it seriously), tag count (10-25 is the sweet spot), caption availability (accessibility + SEO), HD definition, view-to-like ratio, comment engagement rate, publish freshness, category alignment, and flags like made-for-kids.
The average like rate across YouTube is about 4-5% of views. Above 5% is very strong engagement, indicates the algorithm will recommend the video more. Below 2% suggests retention or content fit issues.

0-3 tags is a weak signal to YouTube. 10-25 is the sweet spot — enough to give the algorithm context without looking spammy. 30+ tags often correlates with low-quality channels that keyword-stuff, and YouTube may discount them.
