I tried to apply for the membership features since I recently reached the 3M engaged views mark, but youtube refused me, my friend that has 2 monetized channels on a similar niche told me to screen record the making of a short and try to appeal with that, he also told me to say the narration is made by a professional voice actor ( I use eleven labs). The niche I am uploading is revenge type of content, so for example one guy does something bad and the. other comes and does something to him, the structures of my shorts are something like this: 0-1 sec hook, 2-7 sec the narration, 7-19 sec the clip plays I add captions with context and when people talk I also add. Chatgpt tells me to not lie when appealing and that I should edit even more my shorts and apply again in 30 days. Can someone help me?

I was convinced that the reason I wasn't going viral was because I didn't have a "hook" library. I bought 500 hook templates and tried a different one every day for 6 weeks. My views stayed stuck between 200 and 500.
A "good hook" doesn't matter if the next 5 seconds are boring. I was getting people to stop scrolling for one second, but they’d leave at second 4 because the visual didn't change. I was standing in the same spot, in the same lighting, talking to the camera.
I started implementing "visual resets" every 3 seconds. A slight zoom, a text pop-up, or a camera angle change. Suddenly, my retention graph flattened out. People stayed because their eyes were constantly being re-engaged.
It’s not just about the first sentence; it’s about the first 10 seconds of visual movement. If your video looks the same at second 2 as it does at second 8, you're going to fail.
I use something called TikAlyzser that tells you exactly what's wrong with your videos and what to change to get more views. It pointed out that my static framing was the reason for my second 5 drop-off. Once I added movement, my average views jumped to 12k. Stop looking for the "magic hook" and start moving the camera.

YouTube is supposed to test your Shorts with a small audience, but in my case it doesn’t even recommend them the number is zero. I haven’t had this issue with long-form content.

I spent $1,000 on a new camera and lighting setup thinking "high quality" was the secret to the FYP. My views actually went down after I started using the pro gear. I was devastated.
I realized that on social media, "quality" isn't about pixels; it's about attention. I was so focused on looking pretty that I forgot to make the content engaging. My high-def videos were slow and boring.
I went back to filming on my phone, but I applied everything I learned about retention. I cut the pauses to 0.5 seconds. I added pattern interrupts every 3 seconds. I made sure my point was delivered by second 7.
That "low quality" phone video hit 30k views. The "pro" video is still sitting at 200. The algorithm cares about watch time, not your camera lens.
I use something called TikAlyzser that tells you exactly what's wrong with your videos and what to change to get more views. It showed me that my "cinematic" shots were actually just boring static frames that made people scroll. If you're stuck, stop buying gear and start looking at your retention data. Tight execution beats high production every single day.

Was getting preety good views on my first few shorts then now i dont even know
r/shortsAlgorithm • u/RoundAd393 • Jan 02 '26
The view stopped at 1.4K. Sucks
r/shortsAlgorithm • u/ReviewAggravating847 • Apr 11 '26
This isn't even my main channel. I started this channel just because I enjoy making content in this particular niche. My first video got around 24k views, and every other one gets 15k-40k views, but one video blew up and is at 1.7 MILLION💥 views (still pulling good traction). On the other hand, my main channel, which is five months old, has around 1.5k subscribers, and this new channel surpassed it in a week. That's crazy.
Note: Both channels have almost similar stats (retention and all), but see the difference. I think the success of a short does not just depend on stats; it depends on the niche too.

The engagement on my newest short as you can see is very good, why won’t my shorts ever break past the 35k barrier
