Youtube SEO

I run a YouTube channel focused on software QA, test management, and AI in testing. The audience is CTO, QA leads, test managers, and engineering leaders — a niche B2B audience that finds content through search, not the browse feed. I have 16 scripts produced and a validated topic list. I need someone to make sure every video is optimized to rank for the exact queries my audience types into YouTube and Google. This is not a "grow my channel to 100K subs" gig. It's a search-intent optimization job for a niche B2B channel where 500 of the right viewers beat 50,000 random ones. What you'll do Keyword research specific to YouTube search for QA/testing topics (test management tools, AI test case generation, TestRail alternatives, etc.) Map my existing topic list, videos and 80+ produced scripts against high-intent search queries; recommend title rewrites where needed Write/optimize titles, descriptions, tags, and chapters for each video Thumbnail guidance for search-driven traffic (I have a designer; you provide direction, not design) Competitor channel analysis: who ranks for my target terms and why Monthly report: impressions from search, CTR, ranking positions for target queries, and what to adjust
