Sir this is karamelo/tiktok-profile-scraper not thenetaji/tiktok-profile-scraper.

But That's a good suggestion, I will try to add it to karamelo/tiktok-profile-scraper whenever possible

Sorry, I confused with different actor, but I meant karamelo/tiktok-profile-scraper actor. I edited actor name in my first post.

no problem :)

I did a search and the publicly available data doesn't contain any geo location related info pertaining scraped profile.

thanks for checking!

Yes, I understand that TikTok no longer exposes geo location in the public profile data — that makes sense.

Out of curiosity, have you ever tested or considered trying to infer the region from:

• The HTML structure or localized elements (when viewing from different country proxies)?

• Embedded JSON like INIT_PROPS or SIGI_STATE in the profile page?

• IP-based enrichment (by loading the profile via proxies and observing location hints)?

Thanks again!

Best regards,

Yes, I also did search by hashtags and filtering by countries but that would be highly inefficient even testing for different configurations (hyperlocality, geo based fyp...). The only possible ways imho is asking or using a marketing agency specializing in influencer aggregation and brand matching but that's another story :/

Edit: the perplexity.ai answer about locality is flawed.

Fun fact, I used perplexity.ai and found that https://www.tiktok.com/@marina.eats is from Indonesia!

Prompt: what is the country of https://www.tiktok.com/@marina.eats influencer

Answer: The TikTok influencer behind the account https://www.tiktok.com/@marina.eats is Marina Tasha, who is from Indonesia. She focuses on introducing and promoting Indonesian food to the world through her content. In a Q&A video, she explained that she is a food blogger from Indonesia passionate about showcasing Indonesian cuisine, which she feels is underrated internationally compared to other Asian foods like Thai and Vietnamese. This aligns with her theme of authentic Indonesian food in her videos. Therefore, Marina Eats is an Indonesian food influencer based in Indonesia.

PS edit: Another prompt says its location is unknown and even points to unrelated influencer

I tried other prompts and the conclusion is the perplexity answers about influencers locations is unreliable

I’m building a SaaS app for discovering TikTok influencers and I’m using Apify to extract as much data as possible about each profile. One of the key parameters I need to display is the influencer’s region. Maybe is there some other ways how to extract region parameter?

If I find a way I will let you know here.
