My yt shorts are being suppressed

My yt shorts are being suppressed

For the past week both my shorts and community posts have been suppressed with the views drastically plummeting from around 100k ( average ) to now struggling to get 100 likes on a video. For context I did private and delete one short but since then all the momentum I have built is gone and my videos aren’t being pushed at all ?

Can someone explain to me what is going on with my shorts? 3rd short in a row that doesn’t get views! I usually post 10h videos and these days I live stream for about 11 hours! If you want any other information let me know!

From millions of views to basically zero overnight

And I know I’m definitely not the only one this has happened to. What I genuinely want to understand is WHY does this happen?

Will this work?

I recently started creating yt shorts where i talk in front of the camera explaining things with images, videos, edits. Like why is dollar green color or why is money made of plastic but it seems that there is now much creators doing this on yt shorts.

Can this format work on yt shorts? Do you know any creator that do this and have views?

I am not talking video in background and i am explaining what’s going on shorts.

I am talking about explanation directly from my side.

First month stats - ask me anything

I have been posting shorts for a bit over a month. Got decent stats. Not slop or ai content. Happy to answer questions or give any advice.

Im not some yt expect or anything. Just have gathered a pretty good amount of knowledge and sauce over the past year that might help you.

Dont ask channel name or specific niche, i will not be revealing it for obvious reasons. Thanks for understanding.

Got my best metrics yet and still got 1k views..

After looking and analysing all my videos, and curating them to add rehooks where retention dropped, and adding B roll to increase APV, I finally pushed my metrics to their current best with 50%stw, 73apv and its one of my LEAST viewed video & least subs.. literally why

Hourly views suddenly collapsed twice in a month

Took me around a month to recover for a previous fall when all my videos got removed from algorithm and today I got the same problem and no one in support give me and answer.

Usually I get between 100k to 200k views hourly but after this event all my views collapse to 3k-5k. Asked to support about what happened and the answers are vague and copy-pasted.

My entire channel with more than 50 videos getting views slumped in a single minute. Twice in a month...

how do I start?

Hey there!

So i recently started with my summer break and I want to start making some money, I had previously tried yt shorts using AI but couldn't find the time to really keep up, now I wanna start again and proper, so If I could get some tips on how to and what to post in order to get viral and monetized quickly and make that bag yk🤪

(I have a basic understanding of Generative A.I, some social media skill and a little more than basic video editing skills)

p.s. I'm from India so even like 50-100$ would make me the richest guy in my friend circle

EDIT- FUCK AI SLOP I WILL NEVER CREATE AI

10 Days Since Posting on This Acct

Summary: on May 4th, my views tanked on all previous videos. I tried posting through the 6th and nothing changed. It's been about 10-11 days now and it's been in a flat line. Debating on posting again, feel a burden without doing so. May 21st I might post, let me know what you guys think or if anyone else is going through this.

Confused about scheduling shorts

Hello, I'm fairly new to YouTube Shorts, but not new to content creation in general. I started a month ago focusing entirely on short-form content, and so far things are performing okay and I'm honestly having fun with it.

However, I'm still trying to get used to how the platform works, and I have a quick question about scheduling.

I’m trying to target my uploads for when my target audience is most active. The issue is, I’ve noticed that every single time I schedule a video, it gets absolutely zero traction in the Shorts Feed until about 2.5 to 3 hours (sometimes more) after it officially goes public. Before that mark, it only gets a handful of views from notifications or channel pages, and then the feed traffic suddenly kicks in.

Is this normal "incubation" time for YouTube Shorts, or am I doing something wrong?

If this is just how the platform works, how do you guys plan your scheduling? Do you pull back your posting time by 2 or 3 hours to compensate for the "delay"? Or does the actual publishing time not matter at all for Shorts because the algorithm just tests it whenever it wants?

Thank you so much for any insights!

YouTube vs TikTok views

Tiktok has way less audience retention as well (same exact video). And it was uploaded 3 days later.

Keep Posting Even When Nobody Believes In You 💪

2 years ago I was posting Shorts ans Long Term videos with very little traction.
Now my channel has over 89M views and 115K subscribers.
One thing I learned:
Consistency matters more than motivation.
Most creators quit before YouTube even figures out who to recommend their videos to.
Keep uploading.
Keep learning.
Keep improving.
One video can change your entire life. 🚀

I don’t get subs

This has been happening for a while now, my videos would do great getting 20-35k views and get likes and shares but a few amount of subs. Is there any suggestions?

I need help with a prison sentence of 0 views.

I have a channel created with an old email address, but my videos aren't getting any impressions. All the verification steps were completed, the content is good, the thumbnail is good, the title is good, and yet YouTube simply doesn't deliver them, 0 impressions.
