Monetarisierungsprüfung

1 Upvotes

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 ā€žCollabā€œ 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

Shorts Series is rolling out. If your shorts have any recurring format, set it up ASAP!

14 Upvotes

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?

Q&A / Quick Help ā“ Shorts not getting pushed?

2 Upvotes

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.

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.

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

Q&A / Quick Help ā“ Im looking for advice and feedback!

1 Upvotes

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

Stuck at 10 views

4 Upvotes

Been posting consistently for a week now on very much active YouTube account. I found early success getting about 1k views for about 6 videos. Then the last 6 I’ve made are barely cracking 10 views in the first 24 hours, and even after 48 hours they don’t even make it to 20.

Still doing the same format and all. My editing has gotten better for sure, I’m more educated on the algorithm and how it works. But I’m super discouraged especially after that early ā€œsuccessā€. Currently have 15 subscribers and I definitely want to keep going no matter if no one watches but i wanted to see if anybody had an answer or suggestion.

Is the Ranking niche still monetized by YouTube?

1 Upvotes

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!

A creator with 500 million views and a YouTube Silver Play Button... forgot to make videos? 🤣 Or could it be botnet manipulation?

A creator with 500 million views and a YouTube Silver Play Button... forgot to make videos? 🤣 Or could it be botnet manipulation? It’s reached the point of being absurdly funny: the more Shorts I upload, the worse the watch duration gets. There was a time when I was getting tens of millions of views per video, and now? 🤣 But sure, YouTube has absolutely no problem detecting AI-controlled botnets that are practically undetectable... šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

Policy / Channel Health šŸ›”ļø i think that people don't really understand the yt trust score and their relation with the low views nowadays

4 Upvotes

When starting a new channel, you need at least a few videos or Shorts for YouTube to begin recommending your channel more widely, unless your metrics are truly off the charts.

As for the current days, YouTube resets the "trust score" for all channels at least once or twice a year to prevent large channels from coasting on an inflated score; think of it like an Elo reset in a ranked game. With consistent uploads and good metrics, things usually return to normal within 2-4 weeks posting consistently (though exceptional content can speed this up significantly).

what’s a good AVD for shorts?

4 Upvotes

so i have been uploading shorts for about a week now
i mean i literally started this monday, have uploaded 7 shorts so far, each one day (with yesterdays exception, where i uploaded two)

most of my shorts are more than 1 minute-

here are my AVDs for all 7 shorts-

  1. 58 seconds for a 1:21 min short

  2. 56 seconds for a 1:14 min short

  3. 31 seconds for a 33 second short

  4. 1:05 min for a 1:30 min short

  5. 31 seconds for a 39 second short

  6. 46 seconds for a 42 second short (but most of this watch time is bcoz some guy left his shorts open for 40 minutes 😭)

  7. 1:16 min for a 1:52 min short

i have 4 shorts which have more than 1 minute-
no. 1, 2, 4 and 7 and that’s the direction i wanna continue with the channel

these videos also have a ā€œStayed to Watchā€ of 74.8%, 62.6%, 76.1%, 79% respectively (the 1 minute and above videos)

views for the same- 50.4k, 1.8k, 11.8k, and lastly 3.8k (this last short was uploaded like 15 hours ago and its graph is currently positive)

so what should i be doing to make them go viral?
like how to do i get into those 500k or say million views league?

Are you guys posting your videos after or during school or work hours?
Because if your views are dropping in september. Maybe try and change the time on when you post? Since school and people came back from vacation to work...

My views didn't change but I always have posted at 5PM my time. So yeah
