SEO Settings
Configure metadata, structured data, and SEO settings for your VideoNest video pages.
How VideoNest handles SEO
VideoNest automatically generates SEO-friendly page structure for your video website. Each video page uses your video's title, description, and thumbnail to populate the page title, meta description, and Open Graph tags — no manual configuration required.
Video metadata and page SEO
The SEO output for each video page is driven by your video metadata:
- Page title — drawn from your video title
- Meta description — drawn from your video description
- Open Graph / social preview — uses your video thumbnail and title
Keeping your video titles and descriptions clear and descriptive is the most effective way to improve SEO for your video pages. See Metadata & Tagging for how to edit video metadata.
Structured data
VideoNest automatically adds VideoObject structured data (JSON-LD) to each video page. This helps search engines understand and index your video content, and enables rich result features like video thumbnails in Google Search.
Sitemap
Your VideoNest website includes an automatically generated sitemap that updates as you add or remove videos. If you connect a custom domain, the sitemap is available at yourdomain.com/sitemap.xml.
After setting up a custom domain, submit your sitemap URL in Google Search Console to accelerate indexing of your video pages.
