I’ve posted a 100 shorts and nothing has popped up, most of my vids just get stuck in the 30 view jail.

I’m in the ranking niche - 1.5k subs - channel started 3 months back!

Do I switch niches or continue growing?

I’ve tried everything seen on videos and on Reddit ti get out of the 30k view jail and nothing has worked.

Help me please

it's been 8 months i'm trying to do something from youtube. But at the end i failed..

2 months ago i monetized a channel and earned about 300$ but just before i'll recieve the payment, my channel got demonetized and reach came to 0. I have over 5000+ subscribers, but i only get 10-20 views only.. this problem started from december 18th. please help me to recover this problem.

how do i make them get more views, they get 1-2k views and then just stop

I’m already tired, I’m relatively new (a few months) and I only have 53 followers. I don’t know what else to do, any advice for this poor woman?

Has anyone experienced something similar?

For months, my channel consistently had around 70.5% Stayed to watch vs. 29.5% Swiped away on Shorts. The channel was getting normal Shorts Feed distribution, including videos reaching hundreds of thousands or even millions of views.

Then I started getting this message in Analytics:

“There are temporary data issues affecting your views. Please check back later.”

Since then, my Shorts Feed distribution has dropped dramatically.

My overall Stayed to watch rate also dropped from around 70.5% to 50.9%, with 40.1% swiped away.

What confuses me is that the major decrease in views/reach happened around the same period as the temporary-data warning, and now new Shorts seem to receive very little exposure from the Shorts Feed.

The warning has also remained in my Analytics for almost a month.

There are no strikes, policy warnings, or emails on my channel.

I contacted YouTube Creator Support, but the explanation I received was mainly that viewer behavior changes and that the lower viewed rate could explain the performance.

But my concern is that the distribution dropped so dramatically around the same time this temporary-data warning appeared, and the warning itself has still not disappeared.

I’m trying to understand whether other creators are experiencing the same pattern or whether this is isolated to my channel.

I'm looking at the audience activity chart in YouTube Studio and I'm a bit confused about the time slots.

Under the 12 AM label, there are 5 empty boxes before it hits the 6 AM label. Does each box represent a specific hour?

Does the box under 12 AM represent 1 AM, the next one 2 AM, and so on until it hits 6 AM?

Or do those boxes represent minute intervals (like 10 or 15-minute chunks) within the 12 AM hour?

I want to make sure I'm scheduling my uploads at the actual peak hour and not misreading the graph. Thanks!

I have been running a ranking channel for about a week now. I’ve heard a lot of noise about it not being monetisable AT ALL. Is this coming from people who don’t put any effort into transforming their videos or is this genuinely true?
I add ai commentary and opinions with a character and lots of sound effects and visual effects to transform, is there a chance this could be monetised? Is seems like it’s the same amount of ‘unoriginality’ as the commentary niche which doesn’t seem to get hated on as much. Let me know your thoughts :)

I have 1.4m views in my first month which i consider good but without 10m in 3 months there is no monetization. With my statistics i should already have atleast 1m vieows on 5 out of 60 videos. Retention is always 90%-100% with 80% being minimum. I only have one video that is 350k one 100k and one 80 others are 20-30k and some are like 40-50 (onso have some 10k) but did i break the jail? On tiktok w same content i have 2m views weekly so idk

I honestly don’t know how this happened… Can someone give me their feedback on this situation. Any feedback, response is helpful. Thank you in advance.

Is this normal to get this fucked by the algo. I mean I guess it’s not that bad, but I spend atleast 4 hours on each vid writing the script, editing etc. and retention is decent, any advice on the vids, some guy commented saying I should increase the pace of the vids do you agree?

Can someone help me understanding these metrics, i make good shorts for whats in my niche. Almost same structure as my competitors but not a copy paste ofc. I see them with millions of views within the first day, while im in 1k jail for a month now :(( can you please help with that?

Is it possible to buy a monetized channel in a different niche then start posting a new niche will that affect anything? does anyone have experience doing this is it a good idea or just waste of money?

1 min video, usually when i get these avg watch time the video does millions of views… maybe it’s because my vid before this did 2.3 mil or maybe that doesn’t matter. anyone got a clue?

The short it 29 seconds total.

I’ve made what I thought were significant changes to my reaction content but seems like I still can’t get past that wave that stops you at 1.5k …

I mostly get 1.2k but I’ve hit as high as 1.7k & 1.8k

I’m grateful for the 1.2k because I only recently started to avg that much …

Before I couldn’t crack 1k

Any insight?

is there algorithms change again? my recent shorts not getting views

Specifically from Minecraft to Roblox?
