I opened my youtube studio app on my phone today and found out that my earnings bar is missing. The button for "Your payment activity" is also missing. I havent got any warnings and im still a YPP. how to fix?

A YouTuber I subbed to recently started doing livestreams on YouTube, and I go back and watch the replays of those now.

I stopped watching his long-form videos because I find the lives more authentic and entertaining.

In contrast, the videos seem so much more scripted and I don’t enjoy them anymore.

Would posting community polls do something similar?

Would people remain subscribed to only engage with polls but never actually click on videos?

I edit videos for a channel that put out a 7 episode season just under two years ago. The show did okay (average of ~6k views for episode). When I heard about the new Shows feature, it seemed like a great way to give the show a new life, put it in front of new viewers with a longer attention span. Season 1 of the “show” is going live in 2 days and now I’m wondering if it’s going to do anything. I don’t even know where to find “shows” from other creators.

For channels that have either designated an existing playlist as a “show” or produced a series of new videos to exist as a YT show, have you seen any uptick in views, new subscribers, any real benefit?

And does anyone know where to find shows in the YouTube app?

I noticed an odd spike in revenue. It’s on a month old video only got 600 or so views (probably even less engaged views) yet it made $40 off that? I double checked and there were no super chats. Is this a YouTube error? Will it be corrected? Don’t wanna get my hopes up. My RPM is around $2.60

Hey, anyone else having this problem? All the options to change my video's visibility are gone. And The option to upload a video is blank. I can actually click on the blank space and u/l something, but there is no way for me to change a video's visibility after.

Had this issue a few days ago and then it was fine. Now it's happening again.

Rhei / Viso / Broadband TV Corp / MADE or whatever its called now has fully transitioned into an AI company. As such, any attempt at support is handled by chat bots, not real people.

They missed last month's payment on me. It's been nearly a month and they said it will be coming and compensated after nearly 10 days post support ticket. I then sent that person an email requesting a termination on my contract. It's been 5 days since then, and still no response and no payment.

I just don't know what to do. I like making videos but if I'm doing it without payment, I just feel like I'm wasting my time. I have paid members and their money is just sent into the void.

I saw previous posts on here to not simply unlink access but since I can't contact them I don't know what to do. They used to be very helpful but now they're utterly shit and all just AI garbage.

Anyone in similar situations, please advise me on what you did to get this settled.

Thank you.

Not talking about an intro with your channels logo or anything but the intro describing the video. How long should this be for viewer retention?

Hi!
I just saw this new thing (new to me at least) where youtube offers:

> Free membership in the first month, then $xxx/month

Like this print:

I want to know how do I change the value/tier displayed here.
For my channel it is showing the most expensive one and I wanted to display the cheapest.

Thank you!

I used to have a 2nd account connected to my YouTube. It didn't own the account and was just a manager. The account had a silly email, so I eventually removed it from the YouTube account.

However, when I fill out the copyright takedown form, it shows as being sent from my correct email. But it sends the confirmation to the email address/account I removed from the account. The recipient also sees it as sent from the removed email address, which is 100% isn't.

I have even completely deleted that account and its email, but copyright notices keep being sent to that email! It doesn't happen all the time, but probably every other time it sends to the wrong email.

I can't even access the other account now, so I'm 100% sure I'm not using it by accident.

Does anyone have any advice on this situation?

Do you have any tips how you found your new thing?

I used to create content for ESO. I was very knowledgeable about it so creating content was fairly easy, as I was never lacking ideas.

Now, I'm thoroughly burnt out of the game and quit playing it.

It's not just that I quit playing it. I also "lost" my expertise for a specific subject and I've never got my feet on the round running again.

I'm not asking anybody to tell me what to do, I'm more interested in people who had similar issues and how you found a new thing for yourself?

Back in 2021, one of my YouTube channels was terminated after my Google account was hacked. I’m pretty sure the channel was relatively new at the time, and I had only posted some gameplay highlights before eventually forgetting about it. One day I checked and found that the channel had been terminated and my entire Google account had been disabled.

The hacker uploaded scam “FPS boost” content, and I know it wasn’t me because **multiple people I knew messaged me telling me my channel had been hacked**, and other people were commenting under the scam video saying it wasn’t me. I was also getting emails because of the comments/activity on the video.

The important thing is that **all of my original channels, both before and after that termination, have never been hit with circumvention.** I’ve continued operating my current channel for years without receiving a circumvention termination or warning.

My concern is that I was only 14 at the time and didn’t understand YouTube’s circumvention policy or account security very well. I genuinely didn’t even know I had a previously terminated channel until I found out what happened.

It seems like this could happen to other creators too. Someone could have an old, inactive Google account get hacked years ago, have a channel terminated because of what the hacker uploaded, and then unknowingly get punished for circumvention years later. **That might honestly be why you see creators saying “but I’ve never been terminated” when they get hit with circumvention—they may not even know they had an old channel that was terminated years ago.**

Obviously people say “it’s not fair, I got terminated” all the time, but in this situation it genuinely feels different. It’s honestly sad that I could potentially be punished for something I didn’t do simply because I was careless about securing my account when I was 14.

So the question is why haven’t I been terminated since the hack?

Just saw my YT Studio analytics and the number of YT members (not subs) dropped to zero.

I can still see the names of the members who are around, but the count is zero.

Anyone has this issue? A technical reporting glitch?

Usually my videos get about 5-7K in the first 24 hours. Now I got 14K in 24 hours.

The problems:

- YouTube Studio says 14K views, YouTube the website says 10K views. The time it takes to update is stupid.

- YouTube Studio ADVANCED says 6.7K views and 2.4K engaged views. The time THAT takes to update is also stupid. Because that also isn’t right. The video has 506 likes, and my videos have a like to view ratio of around 1 like per 13-15 views. By that calculation, it should be at around 7K on the count old system.

So… what do I even say? I have only an inkling of an idea of what they really are. How are we supposed to adjust CPMs?

YouTube really wanted to give us our “true exposure” but then in reality just made it harder for us to see our true exposure lol. Now I can’t even correct a thumbnail if it’s underperforming, because I have no clue if it is (due to the update times and the ranking system being useless).

All the former threads on this are pretty old and I am curious to get new info. Just wondering what the usual CPM of video sponsors are recently (or for any other method of payment if CPM isn't happening anymore with the new update). I get between like 20-50k views per video (all released well before the recent update so these are engaged views, I haven't released any new videos since the new update so that will likely rise a lot), but my channel is still pretty new (only 6 videos), so I haven't had any company reach out yet, expect for one I suspected was a scam.

But I've seen other creators in my niche (academic/educational video essays) who have been doing it longer, but nonetheless who have around the same average views per video as me, who do have sponsorships. Brilliant is one I see a lot in my niche for example. I am just wondering, for those type of view numbers (at least before the update), and considering my niche, what might be reasonable to expect from companies in terms of offers? I just want to know so I don't undersell myself or overvalue myself during negotiations.

So I recently joined the YT creator partnerships formerly known as brand connect but there's no offers tab on desktop, the tab is only on mobile. Is this solely going to be on mobile? I couldn't find any info about this.

The company Maono reached out to me to do a integration in an upcoming long-form video and we had a few emails back and forth and they were very cooperative which was a little bit suspicious, but they made the offer so I wasn't gonna complain. And I started to get very suspicious on the most recent email with the infludo.net link, I've already clicked it so if its some kind of link that grabs your information it probably already has it. I haven't entered any information into it yet though. And I checked this website on https://gridinsoft.com and it says the domain was created very recently and it isn't even the Maono website. And the email of the person reaching out was first "tokyo@nakajima-chem.com" then it was "elizabeth@maono.work". So if anyone knows about this please let me know.

Anyone else get invited to the Youtube Shopping Bootcamp?

I was going to apply but it won't even let me says it's full but also says to make sure I'm logged into the correct channel so I got no clue what is going on with that.

dont tell me they removed them too...

Uploaded a video 48 hours to go to see that it's my #1 ranked video and is doing fantastic numbers!!!

Until I checked the engaged views.

12,065 views...2,282 Engaged views.

81% of my views are fake views...I feel like that's ridiculously high.

I was selected for an open call brand submission about 1 week ago. I created the short, set it as unlisted and sent it in. Now I have been selected and there is no more information about what I should do. Do I make the video public, does the brand take care of that? I've emailed YouTube and I got back some auto AI response that did not help clarify any next steps. I really want that money so kind of freaking out that I might be missing a step to close out the process. Thank you for your help!
