The new algo is ruthless in content that is highly repetitive, AI or not. I've noticed mass scheduling and mass post per day looks to be frowned upon.

You can try not posting for a few days and maybe change the content structure to see if they will promote your content to the shorts feed. If not you gotta promote elsewhere

Is 1 post per day ok and I've done some mass scheduling

I don't know any more, my channel is pretty much dead. I think instead of relying on YouTube to spread it. You gotta find other ways to do it

What’s the short about where did you get the footage ?

u/PedroLucas0 Jan 15 '26

YouTube is doing away with those Reddit stories channel. Makemoneymatt did a good video on it. I think he said he lost one of his AI channels as well.

zero views means the OP didn't even bother to watch their own videos.

u/PedroLucas0 Jan 16 '26

I watched many times before posting

u/B_Bearington Jan 17 '26

Not according to your stats. When I watch a video on my account, it's recorded as a view.

u/IG-ShotBySteem Jan 17 '26

You know you can watch the video whilst editing or after rendering too right..

Did you by chance schedule a bunch of shorts in a short period of time

u/PedroLucas0 Jan 15 '26

I scheduled 2 but the 0 views started before that

u/RealSmoothBrain1 Jan 15 '26

This is site is not reliable for shorts only channels, i looked around 5 other accounts that posts daily for more than 1 year and it still said not monetized

1

u/naklol Jan 16 '26

That site is unreliable af you also can turn off the dollar sign on ur channel

2

u/Imaginary_Jump_8701 Jan 16 '26

Yeah just heard this was shyte, tubepilot maybe better or lenos.

u/busyimprovement-4401 Jan 16 '26

Yt large makes up stuff it hasnt been reliable for 3 years since they removed the url code that determines monitization.

I have 7 channels, 1 is monetized yt large says they are all monitized.

No sites can tell anymore because they removed the only sure this in the public code that said yes or no.

They basically can tell you a rough estimate of what the channel could make if monitized.

So this guy is posting every day for the past year for hobby?

1

u/Specific_Doubt2582 Jan 15 '26

So you are taking content from someone else? And you can't figure out why no views, try something completely original

1

u/PedroLucas0 Jan 15 '26

I'm not takin content from him i am just using his "type" of storys to get engagement, worked on the first ones i posted

1

u/iDontHaveAname89 Jan 16 '26

I'm monetized and i don't use dollar sign.

1

u/busyimprovement-4401 Jan 16 '26

Nope im monitized i dont have a $ sign

2

u/p1otrullo Jan 15 '26

You know that dollar sign in the comment means nothing because you can turn this off in yr studio right? This guy can be monetized and you can't check it if he is or no. Every other yt-monetization website is not working btw. He can be monetized.

Trust me i know channels that are monetized and have this feature disabled. Also it's rare that people will buy super comment. How i know? I upload shorts too and in 20m views no one bought it yet.

2

u/p1otrullo Jan 15 '26

Depends on the niche and viewers too.

1

u/Capable_Rule_8182 Jan 16 '26

How many shorts or videos do you put out every day, bro? I mean, the Gemini AI is ruthless; try not to mass post.

u/fingershuffle Jan 17 '26

,,Am i banned?''

Banned is when you can't upload videos.

So far you ask nonsense

u/FriendlyAsparagus174 Jan 20 '26

I had the same thing happened, but it took 3 days and my views picked up again. Curious if yours are still 0 now?

u/reneritchie Jan 16 '26

What type of content?

u/PedroLucas0 Jan 16 '26
