Amazing but true, you can actually take someone's video and upload it as your own. If the broadcaster ABC can do it, you can too. To see, click here.

You do this by describing what the video is about with keywords that people are searching for online.

To do this use the Google Keyword Tool. When completing the description as you are uploading the video to YouTube, make sure the your Titles and the description you use are words people are searching for and that they match what your video is about.

Words that can't be separated, put in quotations. For example the words Funny / Dog / Clip can all be used in any combination to describe what the video is about. But 'Bull' is not accurate without the word 'Terrier' included, therefore that combination of words needs to be in quotes.

1. We entered in the search terms: ' Funny Animal Videos,' 'Funny Dog Videos,' 'Bull Terrier' and 'Bull Terrier Playing.'

2. Click on ideas related to these search terms.

3. Click Search.

4. Bull Terrier comes up

5. When you click on the Local Monthly Title to show the highest search volumes first.

6. 1,500,000 searches are show, per month for the keyword 'Bull Terrier,' therefore we know this is a keyword that is related to our video that people are searching for. Therefore, we should use it as a 'Relate Keyword' phrase.

7. There are zero searches for 'Bull Terrier Playing' so this is a keyword Phrase we should not consider using.

8. 'Funny Animal Video Clips' is most accurate to our video, and has 40,500 searches so this would be a good 'Main Keyword' phrase to use.

9. 'Funny Dog Video' has 27,100 searches so this would be a good 'Related Keyword' phrase to use.
