YouTube Tech and AI Hashtag Performance

This week, ContentScout analyzed 144 real public Tech and AI posts on YouTube, finding an average of 2,258,337 views and a median engagement rate of 0.07 percent. High-performing tags include broad terms like #ai with 54 posts averaging 4,327,552 views, alongside niche terms like #productivity with 2 posts averaging 490,238 views and a 2.77 percent engagement rate. Do not use all of these tags at once: choose broad tags for reach and specific tags to target interested viewers, keeping in mind that high average views represent the performance of posts in this sample rather than a guarantee of success.

ContentScout's own analysis: we sample real public posts matching tech & ai 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.
