Pro Tips for Better Thumbnails:
  • Bold text with high contrast – White text on dark background works best.
  • Keep it simple – 3-5 words maximum for readability on mobile.
  • Use faces – Thumbnails with human faces get 30% more clicks.
  • Bright colors – Use saturated colors to stand out in the YouTube feed.
  • Test on mobile – Most YouTube views come from phones, so check how it looks small.
