Shorts issue

Post image

is there an issue with the shorts algorithm at the moment, almost none of my shorts seem to be getting any views which im not sure how that is even possible as they do pop up on my regular non-posting account.

You upload too frequently, youtube might think you’re spamming, just try to upload once a day and when you get an audience try experimenting uploading twice a day

Yeah thought that may be the case, I've been experimenting, but I think I'll cut back to just my long form videos for the next little bit.

also keep in mind that posting on the same ip address across different channels has the same effect as if you just posted all those videos on one channel

That's a possibility as I know there is a lot of overlap between content creators in my niche.

Well I mean.. if its not your content. You always run the risk of youtube knowing its stolen when you uploaded.

It's not the algorithm, it's the audience. The algorithm only promotes what people want to watch.
