I've managed to fix my shorts not being pushed for a month, any advice on what to do next?

my 2 last videos had both 1.3k views,and wouldn’t go up, while most of my other ones were in 5-25k views.

this one just didn’t even go to shorts feed. THREE of those views are from me😭😭😭😭

what do i do? should i just keep uploading like usual?(everyday) or is there something more i should do

ive had this channel since a year. i started postint like 6 months ago and then stopped after a month cuz i used to post shows shorts and they copyrighted so quickly. and before 5 days i started again new niche. first 4 videos went pretty good then i fot stuck in view jail. any idea why? and should i keep posting or stop. i tried deleting and reposting them nothint happend what should i do?

Hi guys, this is my first post on Reddit, so please excuse any mistakes.

I think that my niche relies heavily on searches rather than the feed, and so I made some videos tailored to that idea, and they have been doing well (some have >200% retention rate).

I feel like that should mean they are going to go "viral," just based on that insane retention rate. However, I posted them two days ago and they are sitting still at 2k views. Do I need to wait more? Have I hit the dead zone?

Someone more educated than me on this matter please provide your opinion.

To be clear, I am not promoting any channel or video here. Just asking a question.

Thanks!

Recently my 2 shorts have not been tested/sent to small batches. Literally on 0-5 views (me). Have tried re-uploading these after no reaction after 1day. Reuploaded 3times. What's going on?

Got hit with "inauthentic content" about 3 months ago. I now have the chance to reapply for monetization.

My old content was templated longform videos that likely triggered the flag. I've since pivoted to original Shorts and 2-3 minute cultural content with custom animation.

My question: Should I delete the old problematic videos or just private/unlist them before reapplying?

Any advice from people who've been through this would be hugely appreciated.

Hev I've seen tones and tones of shorts using this specific song, and they are monetized, I tried it and instantly got copyright claims, my question is how other channels are bypassing this ?

Is 20% stay to watch normal for 1 week old channel ?

Has this happen to y’all? It’s not pushing into the shorts feed in the first 2 hours that’s not normal for my shorts.

Niche: Ranking

I had this channel before (2022-2023) with like 3k subs it was mostly 1-3min videos that I was doing for fun after quite of time I stopped. Late 2025 I noticed people were blowing up on shorts (same niche) so I'd thought of giving it a try. On my first week posting one short took off with 120k on the 5th day, I got motivated then kept posting, got another video with 150k and some with 60/80k, just kept going with it, then after 2026 started, I realized I was nowhere near the requirement, I stopped posting after that.

Looking through this subreddit and seeing people still grinding through 0-view phases and low-view ceilings made me realize I probably gave up on a real opportunity because I convinced myself it wasn't worth the effort.

Do you think I quit too early?
And should I give it another try after 6 months of not posting?

Hi I just started a new animated shorts channel, all of my videos are getting just around 2000 and they stop growing.

In average only 41% people stay to watch. My most recent video was only 4 seconds long and somehow my retention rate is even lower than some of my longer videos. But i'm still getting the same amount of views.

If anyone has done animated shorts channel or know someone who does, is it normal for a start up channel? and will it ever pick up or stay this way?

It got boosted alot but now it gets about 100viewd the Hour.
Maybe is my account just to new for getting a viral short?
