Video thumbnails on YouTube
Video thumbnails provide viewers with a quick visual preview of a video's content. YouTube automatically generates several thumbnail options for creators to choose from, but verified creators also have the ability to upload custom thumbnails.
Custom YouTube thumbnails increase click-through rates by allowing creators to design visually appealing previews with bold colors, clear text overlays, and strategic layouts. Unlike automatically generated options, custom thumbnails help videos stand out in search results, recommendations, and YouTube feeds.
All thumbnails must comply with YouTube's Community Guidelines to ensure they are appropriate and do not mislead viewers.
YouTube Thumbnail Guidelines
To ensure thumbnails meet YouTube's standards, they must comply with the following community guidelines:
- No misleading or clickbait content that doesn't match the video
- No graphic violence, nudity, or sexually suggestive content
- No hate speech, harassment, or discriminatory imagery
- No copyright-infringing material or unauthorized use of others' content
- Images must be clear, high-quality, and appropriate for all audiences
Violating these guidelines may result in thumbnail removal or channel penalties.
