Stop A/B testing with your audience. Minr scores your YouTube title across 7 proven CTR factors and gives you 3 optimized rewrites — instantly.
Try CTR Predictor Free →YouTube shows your video to 100–1,000 people before deciding whether to amplify it. In that window, your title and thumbnail are literally everything. Most creators spend hours on the video and 5 minutes on the title. That's backwards.
Not opinions. Not guesses. Each factor is backed by patterns from high-performing YouTube titles across millions of videos.
Does it use a proven structure? Numbered lists ("5 things"), how-to, question, mistake/problem, story, "I tested" — these patterns consistently outperform generic titles.
Is your primary keyword in the first 3–5 words? YouTube's algorithm weights early words heavily — and so does your viewer's eye when scanning search results.
Are you using the words your audience actually types, or creator jargon? The best titles use language that feels native to the viewer, not the creator.
Does it create curiosity, urgency, fear-of-missing-out, or surprise? Titles that provoke an emotional response get clicked. Neutral titles get scrolled past.
40–60 characters is the sweet spot for mobile. YouTube truncates at ~60 chars, cutting off your hook before it lands. Minr flags every truncation risk.
How different is your title from the top 8 videos already ranking for your keyword? If you sound like everyone else, you'll rank below everyone else.
Does it match a proven breakout pattern for your specific niche? Minr has indexed high-velocity titles by category — and scores yours against them.
Same video. Same topic. One title gets buried, the other gets clicked.
Free for 3 titles/month. Unlimited on Pro.
