If you use YouTube as part of your marketing strategy, you'd want to consider adding timestamps of chapters (key moments) in YouTube descriptions of your videos to make these searchable by Google.
Once Google has indexed these YouTube descriptions, it serves video key moments on the first page of Google search results like the example below:
Parmonic automates the creation of these key moment timestamps for you so all you have to do is copy these from Parmonic and paste into the description of your YouTube video.
Here's how to do it:
1. Select a video from Parmonic's Home Page
2. In the Moments Tab, select SOCIAL.
3. At the bottom of the screen you'll see YouTube Chapters. Simply Copy (control/command + C) the timestamps and chapter titles here.
4. Once signed in to YouTube, paste (command/control + V) the information into the video description box.
- Make sure that the first timestamp you list starts with 00:00.
- Your video should have at least three timestamps listed in ascending order.
- The minimum length for video chapters is 10 seconds.
