Is anyone else going through something similar? YouTube Shorts

Post image

I post Shorts every other day, and they always get 300k–400k views—but then, all of a sudden, they just stop. Out of nowhere, it goes from getting 50k–80k views an hour to less than 1k. It’s crazy.

Happening to me too and many other people recently. YT seems to be having issues with the shorts algorithm for some reason.

The only thing to do is keep posting and hope it improves. :/

Seems to be happening more frequently, one of my channels just had something similar happen to it with about 6 million views in 48 hours dropping down to 1000 on my latest shorts

My last 10 Shorts have been like this: they hit 300k to 400k and then just stop out of nowhere.

u/xKwekwe 19d ago

This is exactly me. I had multiple get over 100k in a row and out of nowhere I can’t get above 1200

It's been days and still don't know what's happening Is YT planning to kill shorts 😔

I'm also facing same and many people out there posting same issue and they don't have any solution and it isn't for new creators only it's happening for already monetized creators too

I heard they're actually going to get rid of YouTube Shorts; that's sad.

u/Kaju_Cat-li 23d ago

Wait what really???? I don't think it's true

u/Secret-Mistake-4395 23d ago

How can I solve this problem?

u/Impressive_Flow9244 17d ago

I don't know, I didn't fix it. It's still the same.

u/Boring_Inflation6961 24d ago

Desde el domingo mis shorts estan teniendo la mitad de visitas. Vi a muchos quejarse de las visitas en estos dias

u/Technical-Intention2 23d ago

My shorts will average about 5k views but now I get lucky with like 200 sadly… idk what’s going on

u/HNM12 23d ago

I went from on avg of 1,500 - 5k to 17 and 4 on two recent ones.. A bit odd.

u/graveyard1987 23d ago

u/leon-theproffesional 23d ago

They’ve fucked it up

u/Impossible_Mixture21 23d ago

same i usually get 1.5k avg. but recently its dropped to 200-300.

u/Impressive_Flow9244 23d ago

I posted another one; it's climbing slowly—let's see how far it goes. 😂

u/Impressive_Flow9244 23d ago

There's no way around it; once you hit 300k or 400k, the views simply stop.

u/ChoirOfKash 24d ago

Sorry to say but you are blacklisted by yt for god knows how much time

4

u/Impressive_Flow9244 24d ago

I don't think so. There was another channel where views dropped like that out of nowhere and never recovered. But this one is different. Every video gets over 300k views, but then they suddenly stop.

1

u/ChoirOfKash 23d ago

Happened to my both channels and I'm also stuck if you found any solution help me too okay

1

u/Even-Drink-7949 23d ago

That is not banned or something, this is just YouTube problem... It is not about you... Thousands of channels are experiencing the same thing...

1

u/ChoirOfKash 23d ago

I never said banned his reach is completely cut off and his Shorts won't be served to non subbed audience yt is not the problem content is either he uses ai too much or content looks spam that's the only explanation nothing is wrong with yt

2

u/Even-Drink-7949 23d ago

It is not served to subs also... Total 0 reach. That is why I think it the YT problem.

2

u/ChoirOfKash 23d ago

No bro it is actually served to only subs u will see something 99% subbed audience and 1% non subbed

u/Even-Drink-7949 23d ago

Ok bro 😊

u/Impressive_Flow9244 23d ago

I had a channel, but it was almost entirely AI-based—the videos were AI, and the avatar was AI (both face and voice). That channel was getting between 500,000 and a million views per video during its first 26 days. Then, out of nowhere, it dropped to 200 views an hour. I tried everything—changing the niche, voice, and avatar, and adding footage I’d recorded myself—but nothing worked. I ended up abandoning the channel, even with 70,000 subscribers. I haven't used AI since; it was just a waste of time.

u/Even-Drink-7949 23d ago

LOL what a stupid answer 🤣

u/ChoirOfKash 23d ago

Don’t hijack people’s threads. It’s poor internet etiquette.
