Tips for Better Results
- •Keep thumbnail text strictly under 4 words — the title does the explaining, the thumbnail creates curiosity.
- •Use complementary high-contrast colors (e.g., yellow & deep charcoal or cyan & orange) to stand out on mobile screens.
- •Ensure human eyes in the thumbnail look directly at the viewer or directly at the focal subject.
- •Test your thumbnail at 10% scale (stamp size) to verify it is instantly recognizable on mobile home feeds.
- •Never repeat the exact video title in your thumbnail text — use complementary hook words.
