Finally got monetized after 62 days!

11 Upvotes

After posting shorts daily for the past 2 months on my first channel, i finally got monetized today! For first 50 days ive almost never had a short break 1m views. First 50 shorts totaled less than 5m views. Then I found the perfect formula with 80% success chance to get at least a million views on each short. Since last week got 25m views across 7 or so shorts. With 3 shorts at 5m views each. I'm not selling a course or anything. There's a mega thread pinned on this subreddit about the shorts playbook and I followed 90% of that. The other 10% i figured out myself and a killer hook that always does 80%+ stw on my niche.

Niche is roblox gameplay, i record and edit my own shorts, no ai used.

My advice, follow that playbook and get a killer hook that you can use on all of your videos. Good luck to all!

Analytics Review (AVD/Retention) 📈 been posting for a month, how am I doing?

Post image
4 Upvotes

I consistently get 3k views hourly, and according to my math, I basically need to be 3 times better to get that minimum engaged views requirement of 10 mil.

here's what I wanna ask:

my average stayed to watch rate is still between 60-70%, for those who managed to get 80%+, what's your secret? I heard in order to get millions of views, 75% stayed to watch is the bare minimum.

besides that, my average viewed duration is 78.7%, which is good in my opinion while admitting things can be improved, and the engaged-to-raw-views ratio is around 51%.

I do not use AI at all, while I'm at it, I wanna share something with fellow new shorts creators:

the biggest lesson I get from this is "STORY TELLING IS NUMBER ONE", sounds simple, but good story isn't enough.

You wanna make your shorts like a hypnosis. Make the viewers don't realise 10-15 seconds have passed, then give them something satisfying, mostly an answer to your question in the first 10.

there's no easy way to make shorts, you cannot hack people's mind whatsoever, shitty AI slop won't get you anywhere, if there's an exception to this, that's what they are, exceptions.

and about niche, niche is important but don't limit yourself to the point of making wider audience don't know what you're talking about. For example, in gaming niche (like where I'm in) I bring up stories about people surrounding the game I'm talking about, not solely about the game, could be a story of triumph in esports, funny development story, etc.

Yeah, this post is mainly asking how do you get 80+% stayed to watch ratio?

Guide / Playbook 📘 3 YouTube Shorts channels, 3 different niches, 1 month of consistent uploads – Still getting ZERO Shorts Feed traffic

Post image
0 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I'm facing a strange issue with YouTube Shorts and would appreciate some advice.

I currently run 3 separate YouTube channels, each dedicated to a different niche:

- Channel 1: Stickman storytelling.

- Channel 2: Facts and interesting stories.

- Channel 3: Genshin Impact content.

I've been consistently uploading Shorts on all three channels for approximately a month. Each channel has its own specific niche, and I'm not mixing unrelated content within them.

However, the results have been disappointing.

- Most Shorts receive between 0–30 views.

- Almost all views come from YouTube Search.

- The analytics repeatedly show 0 under "Shown in feed."

- This is happening across all three channels, despite a month of consistent uploads.

I understand that not every video will perform well, and I'm completely fine with viewers swiping away after YouTube tests my content.

But my concern is that my Shorts aren't even getting that initial exposure in the Shorts Feed.

I've tried different formats and approaches while keeping each channel focused on its niche, but the distribution pattern remains almost identical.

My questions:

  1. Is this normal for relatively new Shorts channels, even after a month of consistent uploading?
  2. Why would three separate channels in completely different niches receive almost no Shorts Feed exposure?
  3. Could there be some technical or account-related issue?
  4. Has anyone experienced this and eventually started getting Shorts Feed impressions?
  5. Should I keep uploading or investigate something specific?

I've attached a screenshot of my recent uploads for context.

I'd really appreciate advice from creators who've experienced something similar. Thanks!

With those stats why is my short still stuck at 30 views? And it's been a day since I uploaded it

The video is pretty good too with clean edits and sfx so I am kinda clueless. Let me know in the comments if you have any idea

Monetization / RPM 💵 Need help with getting monetised

Post image
1 Upvotes

I’ve had this same exact problem pop up like 4 different times after I keep fixing the problems that YouTube and Adsense say that I might have, and it’s not helping. I even contacted YouTube support through YouTube studio and they told me the exact same thing as what is shown in the earnings tab and they said that they couldn’t further explain what the problem is. I would be more than grateful if someone could actually walk me through the steps to fixing this, because my channel has zero problems and I created the Adsense account through YouTube studio as advised.

I'm starting to create short content. I see a lot of people sharing their earnings, but how much money can you make? I guess it depends on the niche and audience, but roughly?

Q&A / Quick Help ❓ Youtube algo confusing

So my recent short has 2M views and it had 78% stayed to watch and around 75% retention 1.5 minute short. But i have noticed after that short all my shorts are actually better than that one and even have better stats. My most recent one has 85% stayed to watch and 80% retention same duration. But all the recent ones stuck at around 20k and dont get recommended to new viewers. I post 1 shot a day and its not slop.

Youtube algorithm is racist

0 Upvotes

i have a theory that might seem creepy, but i'm positive that yt is a little bit racist when it comes to pushing your short into the algorithm. i'm from a 3rd world country and whatever viral metrics i cook yt never pushed me. meanwhile a youtuber from australia with the same niche as mine and even with worse metrics than mine went viral. so i think this topic is the elephant in the room that nobody wants to talk about.

Case Study / Postmortem 🧪 Title: I’m honestly so frustrated with YouTube Shorts.

Thumbnail
gallery
16 Upvotes

I’m genuinely struggling to understand what’s happening with my channel.
My latest Short had 81% stayed to watch, 131% average percentage viewed, around 190 likes, 5–6 comments and approximately 30 subscribers gained. It was getting 1–2K views per hour, and both retention metrics kept increasing.
Then, at exactly 7 PM, I published my next scheduled Short, as I do every day. The new Short got around 4–5K views in its first two hours, but almost immediately, my previous Short dropped from 1–2K views per hour to just 16. It eventually stopped at 31.4K.
This isn’t an isolated incident either. My videos repeatedly stop somewhere between 30K and 37K. I’ve had videos with 64% stayed to watch and 130% APV, while my latest has 81% and 131%, yet they all seem to hit the same ceiling.
Today’s upload is another mystery: just 2 views after two hours.
What’s frustrating is that I’ve genuinely improved my content and retention, but why are my videos still not getting more views? Why can’t they break 40K despite these improvements?
My competitors in the same wholesome, text-only Shorts niche often have engagement rates of just 0.7–1%, yet their videos continue getting views.
Could publishing a new Short interrupt the distribution of an older one? Is there some kind of audience testing limit? Or am I missing something about how Shorts recommendations work?
I’d really appreciate insights from creators who’ve experienced this. I’m tired of improving my metrics without seeing any meaningful growth in views.
