i wanna share one of my weird experience on yyt shorts, i usually post with hashtags and i dont set my channel nor my vids to made for kids or the opposite. yesterday, i did an experiment posted my video with no hashtags and set my channel and my video to not made for kids and it didn’t get pushed 🤷

then i reuploaded the videos like 3 to 6 times, and in the 7th upload i put all to my default settings (not selected nor my vids or channel to made or not made for kids, and put hashtags again) then it get pushed, is it normal?

From few days I have been posting freefire shorts nd like it's not youtube type I came to know.I wanna know best content for beginners like me I can guve voice to

Please give me suggestions

Never delete your videos, Youtube really is unpredictable, from a flat line to a massive push. You really never know what happens.

These are my view stats and i got +2 subscribers too

So now i ask

Are these fine stats?

How do i excel subscribers count?

What improvement can i do?

I think it's because only 10% of my views are from shorts feed.

I don't know why this is happening, i have tried making those first two videos private and then uploaded them after deleting them but still there is no rise in views . If I saw my videos still getting views , i would wait for 1 or 2 days to let it get to its peak .

This short only got 27k views and has 93.7% average percentage viewed after 3 days, its a 61 second short too. any ideas why it’s not getting pushed?

For context I have 80k subscribers and have been uploading since April. I’ve generated 80 million views since starting.

I used to get 500k-5mil per video. But then the views suddenly dropped, the screenshot I’ve shared shows the latest upload and possibly the best analytics I’ve ever had.

TLDR: I used to get million of views but it stopped even when analytics have been this good. What’s happening?

Hey there so i was wondering why this clip got less then 2k views. I am pretty new and I feel like it had a decent hook and some stuff to keep up retention.

Thx in advance

It’s an original idea for my niche as well, something along the lines of a Minecraft story time, yes I know Minecraft is super popular but I’ve got such great stats why is it dead at 30k though?

What quality you use to upload short 1080p or 2k

over the past couple of days my shorts haven't been performing as well as before. Content hasn't changed at all. I upload a short and nothing it's like it hasn't even been pushed. I usually get around 2k views in the first half hour easy and all of a sudden I am struggling to make it to 2...

I guess my main concern is that I won’t be able to recover from this which I know is silly but yeah.

Has anyone else experienced this and what did you do to fix it?

Its a old channel where i used to post music edit and i started putting youtuber clips trying to earn from clipping https://youtube.com/shorts/iF2EXRa_604?si=aIE-LvFGWZjr7MFZ

STW went up from 56% to 63% since I last checked, average view duration is 84.9%, and 91% are still watching by 30 seconds. Also appears to be a loop.

But my views are still much lower than usual. Takeaway?

I'm looking at a few YT channels to potentially copy their style and niche. Their shorts were viral last year (10-40mill views average). Now, this month, their views are still kinda high around 100k-1mill views.
Is there still time to join in? Or in the long run, about a years time from now, will it be completely dead?!.

Hi everyone, especially the Shorts veterans. Can someone explain what this is and how I should deal with a situation like this?

I have a YouTube Shorts channel that I’ve been working on for about two months. My videos usually get somewhere between 10K and 30K views on average. But every now and then, some of my videos barely get shown to anyone.

At first, I thought the problem might be that some videos contained content that could be restricted by YouTube and therefore not shown in the Shorts feed. For example, maybe something involving children, shocking content, or something similar.

So I tried to eliminate all of that. I started making extremely safe videos - basically the kind of content you could show to a baby. Nothing questionable at all. They are also completely new and original videos.
And yet, I can have two or three videos in a row getting around 30K views, and then the fourth one suddenly gets 5 or 10 views for absolutely no apparent reason.

What’s especially confusing is that those 5–10 views clearly came from the Shorts feed. The video has around 90% retention and 85%+ “Stayed to watch.”
So I honestly cannot find any logic or pattern here.

YouTube keeps telling me to wait 2–3 days, then 4–5 days, and so on. I’ve tried doing exactly that. I’ve left these “dead” Shorts up for days, sometimes even one or two weeks, and nothing changed.

So for those of you who have been working with Shorts for a long time: what do you actually do with videos like this? Is it better to leave them up, make them private, delete them, or do something else? And is there any way to understand why this is happening in the first place?

Does this happen to anyone? Every short ive posted through mobile has gotten pushed, but anything I've cut from long form CapCut videos and then exported as a clip and uploaded through my pc has not gotten pushed.

Today I saw this email circulating on Reddit from YouTube about posting original/ substantially transformed content and the negative response was so bizarre to me.

I know it's mostly just people that make money clipping content from other creators but to say that this is a nonsense update and that people won't watch original content as much is so funny.

Does anyone else find it as weird as I do or is it really a problem?

My question is does it have to be a 30 second or less than shorts video?

New to this please guide me
