·May 25, 2025 05:50 AM·

Search for YouTube videos or creators is retuning channels from outside the requested Country of search - any idea on this?

When searching for YouTube videos or creators, the "Country of search" field is optional and defaults to “United States” if left blank. If you are seeing channels from outside your specified country, it may be because the country parameter was not set or the search is defaulting to the United States. To address this, ensure you explicitly set the "Country of search" field to your desired region when performing your search. Are you currently specifying the "Country of search" field in your search setup?

The "Country of search" field in YouTube searches is meant to focus results on a specific region, but it doesn't guarantee that all results will be exclusively from that country. When you set it to "United States," the search prioritizes US-based content but may still include relevant channels or videos from other countries like India if they: 1. Have significant US viewership 2. Use tags or keywords that match your search criteria 3. Create content targeted at US audiences This field is optional and defaults to "United States" if left blank. To narrow your results further, try combining the country parameter with more specific search terms or filters related to US-based content.
