How Lobstr.io collects emails from YouTube channels?
One of the most common questions we get is:
" Why didn’t I find any emails after using the YouTube Channel Email Scraper?"
We get it— after seeing YouTube Channel Email Scraper, you're expecting a list of emails.
But sometimes, there’s nothing there to collect. Let’s break down why that happens.
Our scraper checks the About page of a YouTube channel and scans the description find an email address.
✅ If an email is found in the channel description, it’s collected and added to the output.
That’s it—quick and simple.
But if there’s no email in the description, the scraper won’t find one.
And that’s where the confusion starts.
Some YouTube channels don’t put their email in the description.
Instead, they hide it under the View Email Address button in the Channel Details section.
🚫 The problem? That email is locked behind a login wall. You must be logged in to see it.
But we can add sync_account just like Facebook, X, and Sales Navigator to collect these hidden emails right?
Well no, it's not that straightforward. We actually tried this but there's a problem.
Even if you log in, YouTube only lets you view only 10 emails per day per Google account.
⚠️ That means if you want to collect 1000 emails in a single day, you'll need 100 Google accounts.
This limit makes large-scale email collection impossible.
And because of these restrictions, our scraper doesn’t even try to grab emails from the View Email Address button.
We focus on public emails to keep things fast, reliable, and hassle-free.
