Your takeaway?
Look at those elements provided in search that drive the clickthrough rate:
- Is there a clear call to action?
- Can you improve that through better labeling of those assets?
- Can you make your authority more clear by ensuring relevant links to your YouTube channel?
Thanks for listening. Come back tomorrow for another SEO tip.
