  • Over-tagging: Don't add too many tags in a single video or playlist. The more tags you add, the less relevant they become for viewers or listeners who are searching. If a video or playlist has more than 60 hashtags, we'll ignore each hashtag on that content. Over-tagging may result in the removal of your video from your uploads or from search.
  • Misleading content: Don't add hashtags that are not directly related to the video or playlist. Misleading or unrelated hashtags may result in the removal of your video or playlist. Learn more about our Misleading Metadata Policies.
  • Harassment: Don't add a hashtag with the purpose of harassing, humiliating, intimidating, exposing, or threatening an individual or group. Violating this policy will result in the removal of your video or playlist. Learn more about our Harassment & Cyber Bullying Policies.
  • Hate speech: Don't add any hashtags that promote violence or hatred against individuals or groups. Don't add hashtags that contain racist, sexist, or other slurs. Violating this policy will result in the removal of your video or playlist. Learn more about our Hate Speech Policy
