What to do with a channel that worked

Matching the numbers

The channel you sponsor has a view level you want to hit again.

HowSet a minimum average view count near the channel’s own.

A second channel at the same level

You want another creator who takes brand deals, at the size of the one you sponsor.

HowKeep channels with sponsored posts and set a subscriber range around your channel’s own.

Starting from a saved list

Your list holds the creators you already work with.

HowOpen a lookalike search from the list, which seeds with its ten largest creators and leaves the list out of the results.

Getting ready to send

You have a long list of lookalikes and need somewhere to write to.

HowKeep channels that list a business email, then run Get channel emails on them.

How to get better matches

Use three or more seeds from the same niche. One seed gives broad results.
Results must look like all of your seeds. If your seeds are from two niches, run two searches.
Look at average views, not only subscribers. Views show who is still watching.
Set separate view limits for long videos and Shorts. Their numbers are very different.
Leave out the lists from past searches, so you never pay for the same channel twice.

YouTube lookalike channels FAQ

What are YouTube lookalike channels?

They are channels that resemble a channel you give the search, ranked so the closest match comes first.

Can I search from just one channel?

Yes, though one seed gives broad results. Add more seeds from the same niche to narrow them.

Can I see which lookalikes have an email?

Yes. Each result shows whether the channel lists a business email, and you can filter to only those channels.

How close are the matches?

Each result shows a match score from 0 to 1. Adding two or three more seeds from the same niche brings the results closer to what those channels share.
