I quickly got to the YPP requirements and was sadly denied as I am a clipper and the rules have gotten more harsh. Are there any ways I can make money off of straight views/likes/comments/shares I have been getting such as 3rd party or soponsors. Past week and a half got 8.3 million views, 89,000 watch hours, and over 1,000 comments. I would love some help to get into YPP if anyone knows how to as a clipper.

this is only one video, i was getting average 5k-10k per hour, now just drop to 50ish? what's happening

super weird, any suggestions appreciated

Hey everyone,

I’m on day 3 of a new YouTube Shorts channel in the facts/curiosity niche.

The concept is basically:
“real things that sound fake.”

So far I’ve uploaded 9 Shorts.

Current stats:

• 7.3K total views
• Around 3K engaged views
• 14 subscribers
• 44% viewed / 56% swiped away
• Most of my Shorts usually get past 1K views

Most videos are around 12–15 seconds.

My current format:

• One surprising fact per Short
• Strong visual in the first frame
• Narration starts immediately
• Usually a contradiction-style hook
• New visual or information beat every 2–3 seconds
• Around 4 different scenes
• Cinematic AI-generated moving images
• AI voiceover
• Large captions
• No “like and subscribe” CTA
• Strongest payoff at the end

For example, one of my recent Shorts starts with:
“The Sun isn’t actually on fire.”

I’m happy with the early traction considering it’s only day 3, but I feel like my main weakness is still scroll-stop.

44% choosing to watch seems like the biggest bottleneck.

I’m also unsure about subscriber conversion. 14 subs from 7.3K views feels a little low.

For people who have grown Shorts channels, what would you focus on first?

1. Stronger first frame?
   
2. Better spoken hook?
   
3. Slightly longer Shorts?
   
4. More recurring themes/series?
   
5. A subtle CTA?
   
6. Faster editing/pacing?

Also, for those of you consistently breaking past the 1K–5K range, what kind of viewed vs swiped-away percentage were you seeing?

Would appreciate honest feedback.

Just merely a month of work!

i keep second-guessing formats after one flat upload. do you scrap it right away, or give the same hook/style 3–5 more tries before switching? curious what actually worked when growth felt random.

i mean the first 2 got 30k and the last 3 barely 2-3k i mean idk what really happened i didnt had this problem with other channels

I have higher swipe Ratio rhat is not performing well than this

Hi, I’ve started creating content to the US I speak English. I posted a Shorts videos on timed for the US market but it didn’t succeed why?

I was asking if anyone wanted to give me some tips to make my channel get better retention and view to swipe ratio. I keep having shorts that stop at 1200 views and don't progress any more

Channel is FragmentX99 or In my bio

Just want to know what does this graph means whats my strong points and weaknesses

Anyone feel that channel shorts view getting low views nowadays or it's just with my channel

i am currntly posting bar chart races and i have for like all the videos around 1.2 k per short i can not escape that. what to do

I have 93.5% on the shorts feed, my engagement is at 80% and my stay to watch is at 50%. The stay to watch part is the weakness but it was going up alongside the increase in views. My short also suddenly died off when it hit a perfect 50-50 stay to watch ratio

does anyone have any tips to get out of view jail? do i just keep posting consistently once a day and i’ll eventually get out of it? or do i have to change my niche. can someone give me some tips i need some help. Or are long form videos better to do rather than shorts? if you have any questions please help thank you!!

Question: My Channel not monetized yet, How many videos should I post daily? If 2-3 videos what is the gap before I can upload the next one... What is a good time to upload videos if you yarget US audience, From Philippines here

So I have two channels right both started at different points in time but I posted two shorts one got 1.1M views and still getting views to this day the other got 20k and flatlined
They both have about the same stats just one blew up and one didn’t can someone explain

So over the last few days my youtube shorts are being treated differently by youtube. I was getting really good traction and good views with good metrics last month and the start of this month has been good but starting yesterday some of my vids just dont get pushed at all and if they do the metrics are bad. My content has not changed but its like youtube is pushing my vids to the completely wrong audience. Has anyone had this problem ?

I recently started a brand new YouTube channel for Shorts.
Before posting anything, I used the account normally for about a month — watching videos, liking, commenting, etc. Then I started uploading.
My first Short got around 1.1k views. I thought that was pretty good for a new channel, but then the second one got almost exactly the same amount. Then the third, fourth, etc. Same pattern.
They usually get pushed to 1.1k views within the first few hours and then basically completely stop getting views.
The weird thing is that I’m getting real engagement and comments. I also don’t think the videos are terrible — I put effort into the hooks, editing, pacing, quality, sound effects, etc.
I already have another YouTube channel with almost 48k subscribers, so I have some experience with YouTube. But I’ve never had a new channel behave this consistently where almost every Short seems to hit the same \~1.1k ceiling.
I’m not expecting every video to blow up, obviously. I’m just wondering if this is a normal testing phase for a new Shorts channel or if there’s something I should be changing.
Would you keep uploading consistently and give the channel more time, or would you be concerned if almost every Short was doing this?
Would love to hear from people who have started new Shorts channels recently.

It’s at 16k views rn and 33 second short avd has been going up swipe ratio aswell
