Top YouTube Hashtags for Photography and Video
This page shows hashtag data for Photography and Video posts on YouTube. ContentScout sampled 158 public posts this week to find which tags appear on top-performing videos. The average views across the sample are 12,913,032 with a median engagement rate of 0.50%. This is the first time this page has data, so there are no prior runs to compare against yet.
ContentScout's own analysis: we sample real public posts matching photography & video search terms on YouTube and score them by how much engagement they're getting relative to how recently they were posted. Hashtags are ranked by the average views of the posts using them, not by how often they appear. The numbers describe those posts, they don't promise results.
