Frequently Asked Questions
What YouTube channel formats does this tool support?
The tool supports all standard YouTube channel URL formats including youtube.com/channel/UCxxxx, youtube.com/c/channelname, youtube.com/user/username, youtube.com/@handle, and direct channel names.
How accurate is the video count?
The tool uses YouTube's official Data API to fetch exact channel statistics, providing highly accurate video counts and other channel metrics directly from YouTube's servers.
Can I track private or unlisted videos?
The tool can only count and display public videos. Private videos and unlisted content are not included in the count as they are not accessible through the YouTube API.
What other information does the tool provide besides video count?
In addition to video count, the tool shows subscriber count, total channel views, channel creation date, channel description, and a list of recent videos with their view counts and durations.
Does this tool work with very large channels?
Yes, the tool works with channels of any size, from small creators to channels with millions of videos. The API efficiently retrieves statistics regardless of channel size.
Why would I want to count videos on a YouTube channel?
Common use cases include competitor research, tracking content creation progress, analyzing creator productivity, benchmarking against other channels, and planning content strategies.
Can I use this tool to track my own channel's growth?
Absolutely! This tool is perfect for content creators who want to monitor their video count progress, track growth over time, and keep an eye on key channel metrics without logging into YouTube Studio.
Does the tool require any login or special permissions?
No login or special permissions are required. Simply enter any public YouTube channel URL or username and the tool will fetch the statistics immediately using YouTube's public API.
Is there a limit to how many channels I can analyze?
There's no limit to the number of channels you can analyze, but the tool processes one channel at a time. Each analysis uses YouTube's API, so very frequent use may be rate-limited.
What if a channel doesn't exist or is terminated?
If you enter a URL for a channel that doesn't exist, has been terminated, or is set to private, the tool will display a clear error message explaining that the channel could not be found.
