YouTube is two products in one: a search engine for long-form video and a vertical feed for Shorts. Sosial schedules both, with the title and description fields where discoverability actually happens.

How to win on YouTube

  1. 01

    Put keywords in the title, naturally

    The title is the single strongest ranking signal. Name the thing people would search for.

  2. 02

    First two lines of the description matter most

    Write a genuine summary, then the timestamps, then the links.

  3. 03

    Cut vertical clips from long-form

    One 10-minute video can yield five Shorts. Schedule them across the following fortnight.

Common mistakes

  • Uploading landscape video as a Short. It will letterbox.
  • Keyword-stuffed titles that read as spam to humans.
  • Leaving the description empty when it is free search real estate.

YouTube on Sosial: FAQ

Can Sosial upload to YouTube?

Yes. Connect the channel and schedule uploads with the title, description and visibility you set in the composer.

Does it support Shorts?

A vertical video under 3 minutes publishes as a Short automatically.

Can I set a publish time instead of going live immediately?

Yes. Schedule it in Sosial and the worker uploads at that moment.
