The Problem With Regular YouTube Keyword Research
Traditional YouTube keyword research tools show you general search volumes and keyword ideas.
But they don't tell you which specific keywords are already working for your competitors' videos.
As I demonstrate in the video tutorial below, even when a YouTube video ranks well for certain terms, it's not obvious from just looking at the title or description what those keywords are.
How This Tool Works
The YouTube Channel Keyword Extractor helps you:
- Input any YouTube channel URL
- Extract all their video URLs automatically
- Find exactly which keywords drive organic traffic to their videos
Step-by-Step Process:
- Paste a YouTube channel URL (e.g.
https://youtube.com/@channel
)
- Get a list of all video URLs in bulk
- Copy these into Ahrefs Site Explorer or SEMrush's bulk analysis
- See which keywords actually bring traffic to each video
Real Example: FounderPal's YouTube Strategy
In the tutorial video, I analyze FounderPal's channel and discover:
- They rank for terms like "AI slogan generator" both on their website and YouTube
- Their videos appear in Google's video results for specific tool-related searches
- They've built a strategy around free tool keywords that work across platforms
Why This Matters
Understanding which keywords actually drive views helps you:
- Create content that ranks in both YouTube and Google search
- Target keywords with proven search intent
- Build a data-driven content strategy
- Stop guessing what might work
Additional Features
The tool pairs well with our YouTube Title Generator which helps you:
- Generate SEO-optimized video titles
- Access multiple AI models (including GPT-4, Claude, and Gemini)
- Create variations optimized for both search and clicks

Final Thoughts
