Where creators put their email
YouTube creators who want sponsorships list a business email in their channel's About section. Many also put it in video descriptions, on their website or link-in-bio page, and on Instagram or X.
The slow way
On YouTube, the About-page email sits behind a "View email address" button with a captcha, and you can only reveal a limited number per day. For a few channels that's fine; for a list of hundreds it isn't.
The fast way: search by keyword
Prospect Cheap's YouTube scraper searches YouTube for your keywords — "home workout", "personal finance", "tech review" — and collects the channels behind the results. For each channel it gathers what is public:
- channel name, URL, handle and country
- subscribers, number of videos, last upload date and the latest video
- business email from public channel links, descriptions and websites
- owner name and owner email where found
- website, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and X
Filter to creators who reply
- 10K–500K subscribers — big enough to matter, small enough to answer their own email
- Uploaded in the last 30 days — active channels
- Has email — ready to contact
Use bulk keywords
Niches have many sub-topics. Paste one keyword per line ("budget travel", "van life", "travel vlog") and set channels per keyword. Results merge without duplicates.

Check the email before you send
Creators sometimes list a manager's or agency's address. That's fine for sponsorships — it is who handles deals — but adjust your greeting. If the address belongs to a management company, mention the creator by name in the first line.
Keep your list fresh
Channels go quiet, change niche or hand email to a manager. Re-run your keyword searches every month or two; the Days since last upload column makes it easy to drop inactive channels.
Pair with socials
The Instagram and X links in each row give you a second way in. Following and engaging for a few days before emailing makes your name familiar when the email arrives.
