What video tags actually do

Tags are a small ranking signal. YouTube itself says they play a minimal role in discovery compared to titles, thumbnails, and descriptions, and that they mostly help with commonly misspelled names. So why extract them? Because tags show you how a competitor describes their video in their own words: the topics, formats, and keyword phrasings they are targeting. That is useful competitive research even when the tags themselves move rankings only a little.
