Post by Mago-Merlino » Wed Mar 21, 2007 1:36 pm

As is written in the title...
How to add tags to an AMV for more easy search?
Just the title for me is not sufficient.
Any help? Thx.
My first AMV.I hope you'll enjoy it, rate it!

There are no 'tags' per say.

You can instead put your video in a certain category like 'Drama' or even multiple categories. But try not to enter it somewhere it doesn't belong.

If you need to find all your videos, or tell people how to find your videos, give them your member profile or video profile link instead.

You can tell them to search using your username too if you're in a hurry.

Putting certain keywords in the video comments can help people to search for it easier. Say if I wanted to find a video based on specific content. I'll go to Super Search, type in the anime and musical artist or song, choose a category (drama, comedy, action, etc.), and enter words that I hope to find in the comments section of the video's page. Example: I entered 'Naruto' in the Anime field and 'rock lee gaara' in the Comments field and got these results (you may need to click 'proceed' to get to the actual results page).

Of course, not everyone does this... :(

Which would include the keywords in a title/artist/music search also, but you can end up with many more results if the words are common enough (which may be good or bad). :|

Good advice I only hope people don't start putting just this solid paragraph of keywords in the vid desc like they do for search engines on webpages... that would get scary :(
