YouTube GL Parameter Countries

The gl parameter value is a two-letter country code. When used in YouTube search queries, the gl parameter boosts search results whose country of origin matches the parameter value.

Assigning a specific value to the gl parameter in YouTube search requests enhances the relevance of the returned search results. This becomes particularly significant for users outside the United States, specifically those in non-U.S. English-speaking countries.
