How to search most efficiently on YouTube?

    I'd like to find certain people who perform particular jobs in my area.
    To find them on YouTube are their any tips for getting the best results?
    Do you put in just keywords, or keywords + location? Or use parentheses? Or what?
    Or should I use Google to search YouTube?
    Can someone tell me what would produce the best results?

    I personally use the You tube search bar.
    Put the person / service name and also the location name.
    You will get the results.

    I also use the Search Bar at the top of the Youtube screen. Usually, I'm able to find exactly what I'm looking for.

    Is there any way to narrow the search from Youtube? For example, to only get search results from channels from the USA? Ive had a hell of a time figuring this out to narrow the search parameters.

    Use filters below the search bar. The country can be chosen below the search results.

    Moreover you can search in google. In some cases it gives more relevant results that YouTube search does

    Try this in google:

    site:youtube.com "service name" city state USA

    You should get lots of relevant results quickly. I agree that sometimes, searching on google gets you better results than searching directly on youtube.

    Search whatever you need on Google and simply tap on video result, as everyone realize that Google has taken over the YouTube. In that you give exact relevant keyword phrase and updated time to get perfect results.

    1. Use quotes to force the exact match
    2. Use plus (+) sign to force a word in the results
    3. Force any word to appear in the video title with help of INTITLE: operator
