It’s a little complicated, but it works. The process involves finding the main keyword phrases that most closely describe your video.

Once you find the main keywords that most closely describe your video, then you have your first set of phrases. You want these phrases to be as general as possible and as specific as possible. (example: dog training, dog training, how to, how to train your dog, dog training techniques)
After that, you want to find the next most relevant phrase, then the next most, then the next most, etc.
Once you have a large collection of phrases that describe your video, you need to find the next most general keyword phrase.
Until you have a large collection of keywords, you need to make sure you’re properly tagging your video. Make sure the tags are exact matches for your video’s content. Make sure the descriptions match your video’s content.

Do not focus on keyword density alone. Focus on how the collection of keywords relates to your content. Take a look at the tags you are using for your video. Is it general or specific? Are they exact matches for your content?
Once you have a large keyword collection, now it’s time to find the next most general keyword phrase and so on. As you continue, you will start to see a trend to the next most specific and the next most specific, and so on.
The keyword phrases you now have should match your content and your video description. This allows people searching for that keyword to see your content when they are searching.
