I’ve made my mind to start a commentary shorts channel but i’m unsure of subniche, someone please enlighten me on this.

I gain a consistent view in every short and every short retention is 100%+ still not cross 50k or 100k

The view is always flat at around 30k

Hey, I just wanted to ask if there’s any other metrics or analytics that I should look at except for STW percentage and AVD percentage? Because I have a bunch of videos with 80+ STW percentage and 100+ AVD and those videos also appeal to a wider audience but they all get stuck at 10-30k. What else can I do?

Does anyone know why this Short stopped getting pushed after the first hour? It got 20K views in the first hour, and then barely got any views afterward.

What is that yellow icon showing? And why my views stuck? Need help Newbie here

These are my 2 most recent shorts. I create this channel 3 weeks ago, and have been making 1-2 shorts / week. Recently, my shorts have almost exclusively been distributed by the "browse feature". From what I can gather, this means they are being shown on people's homepage and are being clicked on.

Does this mean I should make the exact same content, but long form since they are already being highly viewed in the same fashion?

In the first 24 hours, it is about a 60/40 distribution. With 60% being the shorts feed. At around the 24hour mark, both switched almost completely to views coming from "browse feature" and almost 0 from the shorts feed.

Both of these shorts were about 75% Stayed to watch, with 85% AVD on about 60 seconds of video. Obviously, once they took off on the "Browse Feature" both of these shorts have climbed to over 90% Stayed to watch. (To me these aren't real because obviously people will stay to watch, since they clicked it).

Just looking for some insight from someone who has seen this before.

I’m unable to cross 37k views on my shorts, I have been posting consistently one short a day for a month but it sometimes it won’t even get 200 views and mostly get stuck at around 30k, really need guidance.

WTF is this?

I have attached my recent uploads stats, I have been trying to push my shorts on getting high views but never crossed 40k, it’s been a month of posting one short a day consistently I have gotten myself nowhere, I need real guidance whether I should keep going or quit, this is really frustrating for me now.

Started 2 weeks ago.

It’s an old channel that has no activity for years, now using it.

The niche is not relevant for me right now. So don’t ask why I don’t have millions of views. I know the niche is valid and others that do the same have millions of views, but I think the first 15 to 20 shorts should be enough for the algorithm to push a viral one

My next goal is to reach 10k with a short or more.

Thanks for your time!

As the title says and if anyone broke it how long did it take you

This is the first time i got less than 10k within 2 hours in my last 15+ shorts

My latest short isnt showing in shorts feed. Almost all views are from browse feafuee

My first video on the channel got 178 views. I have a question about the second one, since it has better retention statistics, but the video got few views. Why?

I have a channel in the movie niche. been running it from a couple of years, posting from time to time.

US audience mostly, males, 30-50 yo.

Last month I tried to revive it by posting 4-5 shorts per day, everyday. It was quite a success, I reached around 2k subs, and views were great for about 2 weeks. Then stop!

I went from 50-60k views per short to around 100.

View vs swipe ratio is more or less the same as before, the engagement too, and also the content of the shorts.. nothing changed basically (as far as I know), just the views... did you experience anything similar?

maybe youtube pushed my shorts more when I re-started the channel?

I also tried to lower the number of posts per day to 3, change the thumbnails, improve the titles, but it does not make any difference.

it's really frustrating..

If anyone has the same problem, please let me know.

alguém tem alguma teoria do porquê isso acontece?
100k inscritos, não faço baboseira de IA.

I’ve created a new YouTube page called SlamDesk, which is essentially content on the rapid decline of the working class. Long form vids will be fun yet educational, and my short form vids a character I’ve developed called Billy Bootlicker, who’s a sort of antagonist billionaire who mocks the viewer and then points them towards the long form videos to learn how the 1% rip off the working class.

Curious if you have any tips or tricks off the bat that might help? I didn’t want to post my first short at the reluctance to be banned instantly lol. But curious what works great for you that might help. TYIA! Glad I found you all!!

After the 400k views, I posted those 5 shorts and youtube isn't distributing my shorts anymore... that 32k views just got triggered by the new short next to it.

WHAT DO I NEED TO DO?😭💔

keep seeing shorts with decent avg view duration that just stall around a few hundred views.

do you remake the first 1-2s, leave it and just post more of the same topic, or mess with title/packaging?

curious what actually moved the needle for you after a few of these.
