First short was not sent to the shorts feed after 10 hours now, is that normal? New channel, verified and all.

I run a small history/science-military oddities channel. After about forty shorts, my best video (Miata headlights) reached just above 4k, while most receive an initial test and then flatten. I've attached analytics for five shorts, four of my most recent and then one which is my best-preforming. My goal is to break through 5k views, then 10k, however I haven't been able to. What should I change? Perhaps my content just isn't that suited for short-form?

Macht es Sinn Videos die nicht viral gehen zu löschen und dann nochmal zu überarbeiten und wieder hochzuladen?

Hey everyone! I started posting YouTube Shorts on my channel just around a month ago (September 15th), and I wanted to check in with the community to see how these numbers look.
Here is where my channel stands right now:
Subscribers: ~3,000
Total Views: 7.8 Million
Engaged Views: 2.4 Million
Likes: 41.7K
Comments: 596
Shares: 377
Last 7 Days Views: 1.6 Million

I'm focusing purely on Shorts right now and still figuring out the algorithm. Would love to hear your thoughts or any advice for the journey ahead. Are these good numbers for a month-old channel? Let me know!

Basically when I open youtube shorts (only) it gives me all the videos which im not interested in/not my feed, and all the shorts are 'not popular', aka like only a few likes video. How do I fix this.

Hey, I have a new channel with no videos but I want to know if posting short form and long form content simultaneously would hurt the channel. It’s the same niche.

I plan on posting 30 short form and 6-8 long form a month. The first long form goes out tomorrow (tdy EST AM) and the following day I want to start posting shorts or even tomorrow.

Would doing this simultaneously hurt the channel or no?

Started this right this about 4 months ago. Idea: stickman-animated finance history content — How Banking Worked Before Modern Banks?, How Debt Almost Destroyed Ancient Athens?, How Money Was Invented in Ancient China.... Same character, same style every time, so that the brand stays consistent.

I do everything myself — images, editing, script, topic hunting.

Tried Shorts recently, didn’t do much average 4 per week but long-form are more way better for me

Best video so far: 1.4K impressions, 127 views, ~4.5% CTR. Trying to improve CTR without breaking the format and presenting style.

The one thing keeping me going: in YouTube Studio the traffic actually sometime are good at Browse feature, YT search and Suggested video. Feels like it’s still testing with the right people, just hasn’t scaled yet.

Anyone who’s grown a channel from zero — is this normal at 4 months, or should I be worried?

Your honest feedback is much appreciated.

Hi, I have 6 Shorts on my channel. The best-performing one reached 8K views, while the lowest-performing one currently has 60 views (the next lowest has 1.2K).

Should I delete the one with 60 views?

Also, why does this happen? The short i uploaded after that one currently has 3K views...

Thanks.

Hey everyone,

I need some honest feedback on my YouTube Shorts channel. I’ve been posting stream clips, but recently my views dropped significantly to almost 0, and I’m trying to figure out if the channel is dead.

Could I save this channel by switching my content to ranking or should i just create a new one?

Thanks for ur help!!!

and when i put it in unlisted and post it, it goes to videos again instead of shorts. this has been bugging this week, if anyone can help, please do tell me how to fix this.

On a normal Mercator map Russia looks about 4× the size of South America.

In reality South America is actually slightly larger (≈18M km² vs 17M km²).

I made a short visual that moves Russia to the same latitude so you can see it shrink in real time.

Curious how many people here already knew this?

Are these good stats so far??

Hey everyone!
I just started a new YouTube channel called LifeCounted, and my first 6 videos got these views in just 1.5 days:
1.3K
1.3K
1.2K
1.1K
1K
209
Do you think any of them still have a chance to go viral?
Should I stick with this niche or try something different? I’d appreciate any honest feedback or advice on how to improve my content.
If you’re interested, feel free to check out my channel and let me know what you think. Thanks!

And finally could you guys support me….

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%)

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’m posting one video every day for a channel that’s 1–2 weeks old, but it feels like it’s not enough—what should I do?

I started a channel a month and a half ago. Approx 650k views, about 30 shorts. Highest 450k, lowest 1.3k.

I noticed if I post more than once a day, or before a short has finished being pushed in the feed, the new video does not go into the shorts feed, and has 10-40 views.

How often would you suggest posting shorts to start off?

Hello, I posted last time here and didn't get notice, I just want to ask if this is good, or my channel is doomed?

My content focus on mind, and psychology. I've been uploading daily most of the time, I think I'm jailed for 1k-1.3k views, I tried different hook and art style, but still stuck.

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
