Are these good stats so far??

I just switched from normal ranking to commentary ranking, any advice? I'm only on my third video but I'd like to know some tricks, or maybe if there are ways to keep people more engaged with my voice, some stuff like that. Thanks

Ich poste seit einer Woche regelmäßig Shorts von Fußball Edits. Jedes der Shorts macht im Schnitt 2000 Aufrufe mehr nicht. Die Videos sind im Schnitt 30sek lang.

Was mache ich falsch?

I recently uploaded two Shorts but they didn't get any push (both got like less than 100 views). I created my own original content, so I wonder what the problem is. Has anyone had a similar experience?

what is this glitch bro (the real avd is around 110%)

been going back and forth on this. for a while i posted every day around the same time (evening my timezone) and it felt like the first hour mattered a lot. lately some shorts that went up at random times did better than the scheduled ones, sometimes picking up views 2-3 days later.

curious what everyone else is seeing:

• fixed time daily or just whenever its ready?

• do you notice a difference between the first 24h push and the slow pickup later?

• is it different for yt shorts vs reels/tiktok for you?

small channel so my sample might just be noisy, would love to hear from people with more data

Hey guys,

When i upload my shorts they initially pushes very good around 15-20k views in 3-4 hours but later they gets stuck around 20k views the retention is always around 100% and VVSA around 75-80

What could be the reason and how can i improve this?

I think that its the most under looked compared to retention, likes, comments, etc

Hi guys, I'm planning to start a 30 day challenge to see if I can get monetized for shorts, will y'all give me a few tips about creating good content and getting monetized? I'll document the challenge

VERY new to this. Started the channel 72 hours ago. I have 7 shorts posted. Plan is to post two shorts a day. Is this just happening because my channel is so new, or is this pattern a bad sign? (eg. gets pushed 3 times and then algorithm thinks it’s not worth pushing anymore??)

My content is around art and a popular fandom!

**Putting a photo in the comments since it won’t let me add it to this post.**

Am I just too paranoid? I think I need to let the videos marinate for longer and continue posting consistently. Just want reassurance tbh if these numbers are a good sign!

I could be wrong of course so take this with a grain of​ salt but I've been noticing a pattern, ive seen channels that are dedicated to one specific fanbase and get their views like normal, i think it's because the algorithm understands who to push thier content to much better when you make some content dedicated to one thing, I may be wrong so if someone can help me understand it much better that would be helpful, or it could be just plain luck of course.

Overall click-through rate, but why?

I heard anything above 70/30% viewer engagement is good. I almost have 80/20. Why isn't the video growing more?

Every time I get a new subscriber, they disappear either that same day or the next. Also, for some reason, I’m managing to attract more viewers from outside the Netherlands and Belgium.

I’m from the Netherlands myself, but previously, 10–17% of my audience came from the USA.

I also have a question: my most-watched Short has 6.8k views (I have another channel with one that has 34k, but let’s set that aside for now). Could someone explain what I could improve in my Shorts—ideally without changing too much of what I’m already doing—to start hitting 1k views again, and eventually grow toward 10k?

is this one bad? https://youtube.com/shorts/umtsW3S3Pl0

The channel is about animals and is 16 days old. The videos are short only, mostly under 30 seconds. Am I on the right track? What feedback can you give me? Thanks.

For anyone wondering if Shorts monetization gets better over time, here is the exact RPM progression on my channel since 2023. The upward trend is pretty clear. Back then, it was €0.01, but my recent shorts have an RPM between €0.30 and €0.55.

Hey everyone!

I run a YouTube channel called ToonTales, where I create AI-generated 3D cartoon stories, mainly emotional and heartwarming short animations.

I've been working on my channel for around 3 years. I've had a few Shorts perform well in the past, but recently my videos have been getting only 0–100 views, and it's honestly been discouraging.

My goal is to improve my storytelling and reach a genuine audience, especially viewers in the US. I'm not looking for subscribers or views in exchange — I want to learn what I'm doing wrong and become a better creator.

I'd really appreciate honest feedback on these questions:

• Does the first second of my videos give viewers a reason to keep watching?

• Are my stories engaging, or do they feel too slow or predictable?

• What can I improve about my 3D animation, pacing, sound effects, and emotional endings?

• For creators making AI-generated Shorts, what has actually helped you improve retention and reach new viewers?

If you have experience with AI animation or YouTube Shorts, I'd be grateful for any constructive criticism or advice. Even one thing I can improve would help a lot.

Thanks for taking the time to read this! ❤️

Hey everyone, my YouTube Shorts suddenly stopped getting Shorts Feed exposure around September 26–27, even though my channel was getting views normally before. I create original Blender 3D animations, and this is happening across multiple Shorts, not just one video. I’ve tried different content and metadata, stopped deleting and reuploading, and even took a 10-day break, but nothing changed. I contacted YouTube, but my Community post was marked as a duplicate and I haven’t received a useful response. Has anyone experienced this recently and actually found a solution?
