Does the lenght of a Youtube video name count when it comes to ranking? I can't decide how to call my next video:

"Top 10 greatest battles ever that took place in the United States of America"

vs

"Top 10 greatest battles ever that took place in the USA"

What's better, option 1 or 2?

In option 1, im raking united, states, america, and "united states" and "united states of america" and all those combinations, but it's longer

option 2 doesnt ranke those words but ranks USA and it's shorted

I can't decide

It's like, what people do search more often? the acronym or the full name? In my example, I want to add "Dragon Ball" but the title ends up at about 85 characters

If I cut it to "DBZ" my title ends up with 78 characters

So is it better to rank with a longer name or put the acronym and have a shorter tittle? Im asking because I've read it's better to keep titles under 70 characters to not get your video truncated in the search engine,

but I have seen videos with 77 characters that rank 10 million views.. help me decide pls

Actually I just saw a 94 character video title with 8 million views.... are you sure title length even matters? because if it doesn't, Dragon Ball seems like a richer term than "DBZ" since a person searching Dragon Ball Z or Dragon Ball Super might stumble upon my video with higher chances than if I just put "DBZ" (as an example)

I know , its just as an example

i put great effort in my content, which is precisely why I want it to rank good and I dont want to get less views due shit as mundane as title etc, and like it or not, that matters, just as like the thumbnail

good content is not enough in a sea of videos, everything matters. I already get views, im just trying different keywords this time, and the title I come up with is 78 characters with acronym vs 85 without acronym.. what do i do?
