YouTube – What is the Link Above Video Titles?

youtube

On the YouTube website, the video title is under the video player. Above the title, there is sometimes a link with some text. Example from this video (LAUREL):

Clicking the link initiates an YouTube search for the text in the link.

What is this link for and how to add one to a video?

It looks like the text labeling part of a Series Playlist Series Episode Label Example: Buzzfeed Unsolved - True Crime S1E12 The Strange Disappearance of D.B. Cooper or a video on Trending#3 On Trending: Every Pixar Movie Reviewed in 10 Words or Less! by JelloApocalypse. They all have similar HTML: all are a yt-simple-endpoint contained within a super-title. Maybe this is a bug with the indended uses of super-titles.

EDIT: This Reddit page helped me find this info

EDIT 2: This is a geotag for Laurel, Maryland. Confirmed by the user who posted the video. Clicking on the Laurel tag brings up other videos with the same geotag.Youtube Comment Section. Becket Clark: what is LAUREL. Luke Justin Roberts: It’s the geo tag for this video. It’s a little weird how it puts it above the title
