Use 2–4 large, bold words on your thumbnail that are super easy to read. It tells people what your video is about in seconds and helps your content stand out even on small mobile screens.
Pick strong color pairs like yellow and black, or red and white. These color choices make your thumbnail stand out from the crowd and help it get noticed faster in busy video platforms.

Show something unclear or incomplete, like a blurred item or hidden detail. When people feel curious, they want answers, so they click to see what’s really going on inside the video.

Freeze a big moment—like jumping, pointing, or reacting—because action adds energy to your thumbnail. It makes the picture feel alive and exciting, which pulls people in to click and watch.

Split your thumbnail with two scenes—like messy vs. clean, or sad vs. happy. Viewers love seeing changes, and these “before-after” thumbnails make them click to see how the transformation happened.

Zoom close on one key part—like a face, object, or detail—so people know what they’re getting. This keeps your thumbnail clean, clear, and more clickable compared to messy or wide images.

Always use your colors, fonts, or logo in every thumbnail. It helps people remember your videos and builds trust. Over time, they’ll recognize your style and be more likely to click again.
