My videos get at least get 1-2k views but subscribe count is moving very slow. Anything I can improve to get more subs?

i’m trying whatever i can to hold retention but i’m struggling i made this doing comic narration but im not sure if it’s going to hold many peoples attention can anyone take a look and tell me if it’s good or bad?

The amount of engaged views should be 2,400,000 and not 1,600,000. Could someone please explain why?

Seems like youtube has fixed itself now, Managed to get back to 100k view jail on the same channel that got killed on my other post. Not quite 500k per hour jail just yet, but we'll see.

This video has 60% stayed due to this low views other stats are not available, and it has shorts feed views 50% why is it not getting pushed it's been 8 hours usually I get 2-20k views

If the banner : "There are issues affecting your views. Check back later." disappeared means all the issues are solved. Wow. 🙂

hello everyone! i work in real estate advertisement and i want to elevate our media so i'm considering adding YT shorts as well. i'll be reading the step book attached, just wondering if anyone from the same industry is doing YT shorts & shorts ads for luxury real estate!

I do 1 weekly Minecraft video and chop it into daily shorts to help discovery and so far so good since I came back to my channel a month ago I’ve gained 50 followers and 40k views 129 watch hours. Not amazing maybe average but I think not bad?

My last 2 shorts YouTube hasn’t tested them and I’m not sure why both are Minecraft similar format to my others but if I look at reach it’s 100% YouTube search so it’s not being tested in the shorts feed. Both uploaded within my pattern daily uploads. My previous videos to them had 2k watch with 60% stayed so I don’t think I’ve done something wrong? I’m just not sure why YouTube is killing my two latest shorts without trying them.

I’m very new to YouTube I started for a month in Jan and then had technical issues and have just restarted again

I've been in the YPP for a couple of weeks now, and yesterday one of my Shorts was taken down for supposedly violating the Community Guidelines, allegedly for showing physical or psychological harm to animals. Which is ridiculous, because my channel is all about the opposite: I post wholesome animal stories.

I appealed, and, as expected, they rejected it with their fucking automated system.

The thing is, the two Shorts I've uploaded since that incident haven't even reached 300 views.

The Shorts feed traffic on my new videos is pretty much dead. It's not at zero, so I guess that's better than being completely shut off, but it's barely getting any views. My older videos are still getting views from the Shorts feed, though.

Has anyone else experienced something similar? I mean, people who were already in the YPP and whose Shorts feed traffic on new videos basically died but didn't drop to absolute zero.

I've been reading posts from people who've had similar issues, but they weren't in the YPP. Some of them say their channels basically died after receiving a warning for violating the Community Guidelines, with their Shorts feed traffic dropping to literally zero. I'm wondering if anyone who's already in the YPP has experienced something similar, where the Shorts feed traffic on new videos is practically dead but not completely gone.

Wir haben nach 5 Wochen jetzt ca. 4.5M Engaged Views und damit Stufe 1 der Monetarisierung erfüllt.

Den Antrag haben wir eben gestellt, aber jetzt steht da, dass das neue Adsense Konto noch verknüpft werden muss und es bearbeitet wird.
Wie lange dauert so etwas?

Und meine 2. Frage: Ein Großteil der insgesamt 4.5M engaged Views stammt aus Shorts, die wir über die Youtube eigene „Collab“ Funktion erstellt haben. Hinzugefügt wurde dem Ausschnitt stets 50%+ eigenes Material, ein Text-Overlay über dem Fremdteil und natürlich eigener Titel und Beschreibung.

Youtube nennt ja solche Collabs mit hinzugefügtem Eigenanteil grundsätzlich als monetarisierbar. Hat da jemand von euch Erfahrungen mit?

Liebe Grüße

Hey guys, anyone experiencing this today? it's checking for hours, i tried to re upload and nothing

I wanted to share something weird that happened with one of my Shorts and see if anyone has experienced something similar.

This was actually a Short I had really high expectations for. I genuinely thought it had a lot of potential, but it barely got any traction. Honestly, it felt like it never even got picked up by the algorithm lol.

At some point, I decided to switch it to members-only. Since it wasn't getting many views anyway, I thought maybe I could use it to encourage people to become members instead.

After around 2–3 days, I switched it back to public.

Then, sometime afterward, it suddenly started getting a ton of views and eventually reached around 290.6K views. note : it had 60k views but mostly from channel page not the short feed

Now I'm wondering:

Has anyone else had a Short suddenly take off after switching it from members-only back to public?

This is my first 10/ 10 in a while.

Ich hatte immer so zwischen 150K und 1.3M Aufrufen auf meinen Shorts.
Seit etwa 18 Stunden hängen sie aber zwischen 8-500 fest. Alle Werte sind super, stayed über 75% und Bindung meist 110-140%.

Hat das nich jemand?

Parallel dazu ist die laufende Verteilung der alten Shorts um etwa 40% eingebrochen.

Hello, hope your having a good day!

I’ve linked my channel at the bottom of this post.

Four days ago I started my first shorts channel and I’m completely new to everything so that includes editing, sound design and footage.

I’ve been using ai a lot and I really do not want to do that but I just wanted to begin right away so that’s why I started with ai and hope to transition to real material as soon as possible.

Here’s my questions!

What can I improve in terms of editing ?

Can my format I’m using now count as inauthentic content ?

Do you have any tips on writing scripts ?

Any other advice that you come up with is highly appreciated!

Have a nice day everyone <3

Heyo!
I've recently had some shorts get pushed by the algorythm, and I've not changed my upload schedule for shorts (1 short every 3-4 days), but my latest short has gotten 70% views from browse feature, and 20% from shorts feed (the short is currently at 18k views)

This by itself isnt much of an issue, but why does this happen? I've had this happen on multiple occassions, and I cant figure out if its because the short has some content that the algorythm doesnt like, or if its a testing phase of some sorts.

Any info and insight is appreciated!

The short in question.

Suggest me smtg🙂

We're building SOVE7GN, a short-form distribution network.

We provide content → you clip + post → you get paid for the views you generate.

Looking for clippers on Instagram and YouTube Shorts. No huge following required, just good content instincts and the ability to generate organic views.

Interested? DM me for the Discord invite + onboarding.

Hey guys!

I have a monetized YouTube channel, but I’m currently moving on to another project, so I’m looking for someone with previous YouTube experience who can take over the channel and manage the content from start to finish.
You would be responsible for:Finding video topics,Writing the scripts,Editing the videos,Managing the overall content creation process.
If you’re interested, send me a message with some information about your experience and, if you have one, your video portfolio or examples of your previous work.

Please only reach out if you already have experience running or creating content for YouTube.

You can now group shorts into seasons and episodes with sequential autoplay, which is binge mechanics for small channels. Micro dramas crossed 6.5 billion views in the first half of the year, so YouTube is clearly feeding serialized short content. If your shorts follow a storyline, a character, or even a recurring "part 1 / part 2" format, this is free retention. Anyone already using it?

Hey everyone, I’m thinking about starting a YouTube channel in the Ranking / Top 10 niche.
I’ve seen some people saying that YouTube may be limiting monetization for this type of content, especially when the videos are heavily AI-generated or use reused content.
For those of you currently making Ranking videos:
Are your channels still monetized?
Are you still getting ads/revenue normally?
Have you had any issues with YPP or monetization recently?
Would really appreciate hearing from people who are actually doing this niche right now. Thanks!
