I’ve noticed with Youtube that I can type in the precise name of a video and it doesn’t show up in the first couple of pages. What helps me find it is to limit the search period to the last month or so. I don’t know how this would help with older videos, though.
How can it not put the exact name match at the top of the hit list?
Do you put the exact name in double quotes?
It should help if you put quotes around it.
