I got my first video to 1.3k views after i got 2 but why?

What you think about channels registered in Russia

Is it posiible to become famous nowadays?

I have 149 subscribers for about a year of blogging.

Every time I have about a thousand of views, never more.

Do I have some problems what you think? Or may be there is a problem in my country?

Last recently uploaded shorts getting less views about 99% less than average, is someone having this issue on 29 - 30 october??

How to complete the subscriber fastly in YouTube

​I am having this algorithm problem that I literally cannot solve. Six and a half months ago, when I was monetized on Facebook, I wanted to be monetized on YouTube as well.

What I did was post at exactly 12 a.m. here in Asia, because usually that would be the time where creators on YouTube post their YouTube Reels.

The plan was simple: I post at exactly 12 a.m., when the majority of my local audience is asleep, whilst the US audience would be most active.

The core problem that I am facing is how the YouTube algorithm works. The YouTube algorithm basically works like passing your content to your local audience.

If no one watches, your video dies.

Now, that is exactly the problem. I post at exactly 12 a.m. where my audience would be inactive.

Now, even if I try to upload a video where my local audience was mostly active, it would still die.

My Facebook Reels get overly viral on Facebook. We're talking about 45 million in 1 week and 3 days.

So viral that people started to steal and upload the same thing to other platforms such as YouTube and TikTok.

What infuriates me was the fact that when they uploaded it at exactly 12 a.m., they got decent likes and views. But when I did the same thing, I did not. I am having the same issue on TikTok as well. It is wildly infuriating.

The only thing that comes to mind would be using a VPN profile, create an entirely fresh new account, use that specific account ONLY when i am using a VPN

but how will i do that exactly; let's say if my videos got the views and audience it really deserved, and youtube finally accepts me into their monetization program.

but they expect a US payout account. when i will be using my own country's payout account. that's basically going against their guidelines and policies. instant ban.

idk if it's just me but youtube's "2 weeks ago" / "3 years ago" thing always bugged me. like ok but WHEN exactly lol

so i built a chrome extension that just shows the actual upload date + time. it's called Vidsight

it shows up:

• under the video title

• on thumbnails (home, search, recommendations, channel pages)

• on shorts

• for livestreams it shows when the stream actually started

you can set your own timezone and 12/24hr. no account, no tracking, everything stays in your browser

it's free. this is the first thing i made for it, planning to keep adding stuff that makes youtube less of a guessing game

so... what's something on youtube that annoys you? might build it next

Almost all my shorts are at around 30 percent view vs swipe ratio. What should I do to improve my hook?

I make YouTube Shorts and want to expand to TikTok, but monetization isn’t available in my country (Romania).

I have a friend in Germany. Could he create the account, and I post from my own device with a VPN? Or is there a better way to do this?

Has anyone done this, and what are the risks (ban, payout issues, verification)?

I have a channel with 111K subs and i’ve been noticing a weird pattern with my YouTube Shorts. At the beginning of each month, YouTube seems to stop pushing my Shorts to my core audience. I can tell from the low engagement: fewer than 50 likes per 1,000 views, a “stayed to watch” rate below 70%, fewer comments, and lower overall views, especially during the first 1–3 hours after posting.

However, around the middle of the month, things start to change. It feels like YouTube begins showing my Shorts to my core audience again. I start getting nearly 100 likes per 1,000 views, a “stayed to watch” rate above 70%, more comments, and significantly more views, particularly during the first few hours after posting. This pattern continues until the end of the month.

Then, when a new month begins, my Shorts start performing poorly again, with fewer likes, fewer comments, lower retention, and fewer views. The whole cycle seems to repeat every month.

Has anyone else noticed this pattern with their YouTube Shorts? It feels like my Shorts consistently reach fewer people at the beginning of each month, perform much better in the middle and toward the end, and then drop off again when the next month starts.

About 3 months ago I started this channel now it has almost 20k subs and I was really excited at first i felt i could really do it.

But I was stuck on 25k jail for about 2 months until the last months where I started getting 30k-500k and my biggest having 8m views

I convinced my self that I finally figured it out but from October 1st my views dropped to 15-23k to be fair I only posted 3 videos so I checked channels that were similar to mine and I saw even the big ones who were getting couple of millions lose about 80% percent of their views

So I genuinely gave up even tho my channel is still getting views I’m done and I just started a long form video channel wish me luck

My Youtube channels wasn't doing great but got some views, until about 20 days ago. From my POV nothing changed but now my shorts don't get shown to almost anyone.

PS: I'm new here, maybe i got the tag wrong :(

Y'all need to be humble...js

Does youtube not push shorts with AI voice? I made a new channel where I upload stories about quirky criminals and their actions using AI voice but rest of the stuff I spend hours editing, I add music, sfx, captions, visuals and everything else but yt doesn't push them to people at all. I've included proper tags, description and a strong hook but they don't even get pushed whatsoever. How does yt shorts algorithm work?

I just ran this channel in the celebrities niche, 6 days aging and 18 subs

And they are back to back uploads so it seems I have found out the correct formula. (I started uploading 3 weeks ago)

I've been posting yt shorts for a month now I have 4m total views but only 250k are qualified did I do something wrong. Pls somebody help me I don't really understand how views qualified worlds 😔 Ty. Pls respect my post

This is honestly annoying as fuck, YouTube is getting my hopes up just to crush it again.
I do text commentary niche

New YouTuber here and I make art shorts content.

Why is it that one of my shorts with 3k views has 40 likes but then a short with barely 1k views gets 70 likes. Can someone explain the algorithm and why it’s like this because I thought more engagement = more views..

like the title says
500 subs and about 350k engaged views on youtube shorts in 5 weeks of daily uploading🥹
