YouTube Title Character Counter

Draft a YouTube video title with a live count against the official 100-character limit.

YouTube titles need to set an accurate expectation and earn attention in a compact search result. This counter uses YouTube’s 100-character maximum and lets you compare concise title ideas without uploading a video, signing in, or sharing the draft.

Keep your YouTube title within 100 characters

  1. 1

    Write your youtube title

    Paste or write your youtube title. Nothing is uploaded while you work.

  2. 2

    Review the live counts

    Watch characters, words, hashtags, mentions, and the remaining 100-character budget update as you edit.

  3. 3

    Copy title

    Use Copy title, then paste it into the destination field.

Before you paste the result

  • Put the specific topic before secondary context.
  • Avoid promises the video does not deliver.
  • Read the title beside the thumbnail idea to remove repetition.

Your draft stays private

Your draft stays in this tab while you count or format it. It is not uploaded or saved. A typical emoji counts as one character here; combined emoji may be counted differently by the app where you publish. The working limit follows the current youtube title limit.
