I, 'am losing my "' confidence '" hum itni mehnat krte hai " Song Content " me.............Lekin koi chote you tuber ko supprt nhi krta h bs❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Its definitely not true. When I got demonetized my views dropped from 10k plus per week, to a few hundred, at best, and then they die. Despite thte fact that I had 1500 subs then and have 12k now, and I am constantly hearing from my audience that it is the best of this type of content on RU-vid.
It's unfortunate that great content sometimes never gets shared, discovered or seen because the "algorithm" didn't know who, how, or when to show it. It's disconcerting for creative people who might do something out of the box that people could probably really enjoy, if only they had a chance to see it, and decide for themselves. The "algorithm" didn't connect them with it. I understand that there are billions of videos to manage, and that all of it cannot be presented to people. At least a FAIR and genuine effort should be made to present all content to the MOST POSSIBLE people, and let them decide whether they like it. I think RU-vid would see a greater return. I constantly have to clear the cookies of my browser because the "algorithm" always presents me with stuff that don't interest me; simply because I watched a similar video. It can be a bit much. "Variety is the spice of life." Embrace variety. I'm sure RU-vid is constantly improving the algorithm. ☮🧡🤗🙏
You only have 158 subs, that’s merely enough for RU-vid to know who to show your videos to and if you cant write a good title, then you are not pulling any views
@@FuckXiJinping Thanks for the response, Eric. According to RU-vid, in the exact video we are commenting on, the size of your audience is not a big determining factor on how the statistical equations connect your video to viewers -- If it were, you would never grow past 36 subs. It's about a lot of factors. One of the major ones, is viewers' preferences. Not just your audience, but the billions of views on the platform. The data they collect about your habits on the site helps their algorithms determine what is shown to you. Which is limiting because if prevents you from discovering things that you may not even yet know you might find useful or beneficial. We expend our minds by being exposed to new things. The point I was making is that an effort should be made to present all videos that are not violating any guidelines to as many people as possible. The first 300 may not like it, and the next 3,000,000 might. If it's never shown because it didn't fit a statistical profile, well... 😊Can you imagine, if the "algorithm" did the same for this comment because it calculated that not too many people would align with it. We would have never had a chance to do this exchange from which I learned so much about your point of view. 🙂 Variety! A creator would feel really free to create, rather than feeling that their work may never be seen because some "code" didn't think people would like it. 😁 Take care!
I think that is a fair criticism, but also, I don't know what the alternative would be. For every RU-vid creator who is doing something new and interesting that might be interesting if only people could get ahold of it, there are dozens of creators who are making low-effort vanity projects... (myself included, on some of my videos). If RU-vid promoted everything, users would get flooded with dozens or hundreds of meaningless scribbles. I have some videos about accessible subjects that people are interested in (often visits to scenic or interesting places), and then I have many videos that are basically absurd art projects. I totally understand why the first group generates more interest.
It seems to me the youtube "algorithm" is not very intelligent. The more nonsensicle a video is the more views it gets. There's no quality influence because when nobody sees the video how would quality make any difference?
"The number of people subscribed to your channel doesn't represent the number of viewers choosing to watch your videos." So why do you have to have a certain number of subscribers to be monetized? You could have millions of views and not be eligible.
Two Golden rules: 1. Don't upload daily when you feel it's killing you. 2. Make the videos YOU want to make. Don't make videos THEY want you to make. Stay healthy and stay safe.
Help me man. I have different audience in shorts. And multiple audiece in my long vids. I make variety of content, roblox, memes, will smith, adopt me, lyric vids. Should I be happy about me having multiple audience? Its hard to manage which videos my audience like, but most of them are adopt me players. Most of all its Hard to stick to one type of content. A little help here please? Im planning to make Animation content Memes And lyric videos
And yet there's tons of scams on shorts. Duplicate videos etc. Then there's comment bots, lots of them, "it's finally here", "I got heat on my Paige" etc. Something needs to be done
That's okay! We have the dislike button to help alert viewers to potential misleading or scammy or downright dangerous information. It serves to protect viewers. Oh.... silly me. There USED to be a time when that was so. Now the safety of the viewer takes a back seat to RU-vid's interests.
@@PathForger_• hello, I'm sorry that the number of dislikes is more/not visible on the videos, it would be very useful to help alert naive people who fall into the nets of horrible staged fake rescue chains and recurring in the field of puppies and kittens 😢😭.
@@caherineponsard1390 Or worse. How's this as a title? 'Got chest pains? Avoid hospital bills with this life hack!' 9_9 Let's extend the scenario. Somehow gets 5000 likes. Nobody can see the 50,000 dislikes because RU-vid. Some people die as a result of trying to follow bad medical advice that they might have avoided had RU-vid not prevented people from seeing the full picture. RU-vid claims it is about protecting creators. Yet such creators always 'had' the option to hide their dislikes... so something 'else' is the true reason why RU-vid removed viewers' ability to get an accurate representation of video popularity.
As a creator, I would like to have a way to tell the algorithm which audience the video I made is targeted for, instead of letting the algorithm blindly recommend it to people, it is more efficient for the user or creator or even the system.
Exactly! I was thinking about the same thing few months ago. Why an algolithm choose random audience to me and then ignoring my videos, marked as 💩, because they don't watch/listen my creations more than 10 secs. I bet it recommend to ppls who doesn't like trance or relaxing musics and motion graphic contents. 100 SEO score and right tags doesn't matter, it has no effect. Still fighting with 30-100 average views after 14 years, also tried with new channel few years ago, same result. I really tired of it. I bet the algorithm is similar on Instagram, but there i could check this bad algroithm recommendations. There is a section, something like "Show contents from creators like me". As graphic and sound designer when i enter that menu, the algoritm shows me wedding dress stuffst and fully different contents, there is no any matching to my creations. I reported it, with video proof 6-8 months ago but no response.
Hey there, I know you wrote this a year ago but I agree with what you said. I also would like to choose which audience that my RU-vid videos go to. You can sort of do this in a way and it helps slightly. You probably already know about by now, but make sure in RU-vid Studio you are picking the proper category. For instance, with this channel, I always choose "Music" but I also have a comedy channel and sometimes RU-vid chooses the category "People & Blogs" and I have to manually switch it back to "Comedy". Hope this helps
Tags or SEO either for that matter. I hope the people who spam us for SEO realize this and find a new hustle. SEO is dead she basically said it with the tags discussion. ~JT
🙏🙏🙏 Its very much informative and useful video that helped me to understand more depth about RU-vid and how to focus in video creations. Thank you team
🙏🙏🙏 it very much informative and useful video that helped me to understand more depth about you Tube and how to focus on video creations . thank you team
I think the title and video image are very important. If you write a title close to the video titles of the competitors, you can still get traffic. Especially shorts videos attract great subscribers and this gave very good results on my channel. Good luck to everyone.
Igen, de... Pusztán azt tenni amit szeretsz, itt kevés. Nagyon figyelembe kell venni a vélelmezett nézők elvárásait, igényeit, érdeklődését. Ez viszont csak idővel derül, derülhet ki. Mert aki tartalmat oszt itt meg, azt azért teszi, mert vélelmezi, hogy másokat is érdekel majd amit csinál. Nem kell mindjárt a nagy "sikerre" számítani. Ha a tartalom jó, igényes és igaz, akkor a dolog működni fog. Nem azonnal persze. De azt gondolom ezzel nem sok újat mondtam 🙂.
I don't believe the time between uploads doesn't matter. If you take a month longer than usual to upload, users will most likely watch other users and then their feed will fill up with other recommendations other than yours. I found this happening on a few channels.
Vou comentar em português tá foi o melhor vídeo explicativo do RU-vid que eu já assisti até hoje você está de parabéns em informações a respeito do RU-vid sem contar que você é uma mulher que pronuncia o inglês muito bem de se entender Obrigado pelas explicações e que você tenha sucesso na sua vida tchau
Definietly was benefical and uplifting, considering im feeling stuck and unsure of how to get viewers. I just need to continue being patient and trust the process.
That's good to know about the monetisation thing - I had wondered if my not running mid-rolls could have been holding vidoes back. Good to know that is not the case.
Thank you for the advice. I'm solely concentrated on making content that is inspiring for both me as a creator and for an audience that appreciates the niche I serve. With each new post, I optimize through title, thumbnail, description, and tags. Eventually, if I remain consistent, I know I'll be able to reach a larger audience. I wish the best of luck to all the hard-working and dedicated creators here - don't ever stop doing what you love! The greatest reward is in the creation.
Hi can you please make a separate video for how to cover trending video topics which is very important for our RU-vid channel… one more thing, the tip about changing the thumbnail and title was really very interesting. In my recent video I change title and thumbnail . The video suddenly got picked up which was so exciting . So once again thank you for sharing this valuable information.
Very informative. We really need to take care of ourselves first, otherwise we won’t be able to perform well. Thank you for the time making this video for us, it really helps and lift our spirits up. More blessings to you all!
I think the best description I ever heard about "the algorithm" is you have to think of it being steered by the viewer. When we post the videos get PULLED from the other side by viewers and not necessarily pushed by anything we do. My tip as a small creator is make good content and cross platform promote. It takes time for the right people to find your content. But when they do find it, if you're creating good content, they will go back and watch everything you've posted. I say this as someone who often goes back and watches my favorite youtubers videos back MULTIPLE times. Good content is timeless. So don't stress too much about the numbers. It genuinely won't change a thing.
Absolutely couldn't agree, promote on cross platforms and just stick to the creative aspect, I had on vid I didn't think was going to be anything but a "filler" if you will and outta no where it smash 86k on TT. I know different platform and algorithm but still point still stands as @callmeangel pointed out.
thank you very much for the explanation, this is very useful, interesting to watch, knowledge for us content creators who still have a lot to learn about youtube, with this content we can know and understand.
It's interesting that the correlation between uploads and time don't define the growth of a channel. So, knowing your community and having your audience engaged is the key to channel growth? Thanks you for this video. Will there be more topics around RU-vid analytics to help understand who's watching and what's working?
Help. I have a variety of audiences. I make variety of content, memes, lyrics, adopt me, turning red, will smith. And its hard to stop making variety of content. Im planning to stick to 3 main content -memes -lyric videos -animations Im afraid my audience will fight each other because they came from different things (for example, one of my audience watch roblox, others watch memes and they dont know what roblox is) Most of my audience are adopt me players, but I also care about my other audience too, like meme watchers. So a little help here, please?
Tags definitely don’t matter, some others in my niche us little or no tags and have thousands more views than my videos that have very descriptive tags
Wait what? I put a lot of tags on mah vids. Some get popular some dont. What the heck man, I got a bunch of different audience to manage. Adopt me audience Meme audience Non roblox players Roblox players Help. Its hard to stop making different types of content like memes,lyrics,roblox. I cant stick to one content How to manage audience?
It's better to stay around 5 tags per vid maybe 8, but after 12 it seems you basically over load the algorithm and it won't recognize any of your tags. I highly suggest only using roughly 5 ro 8 max. I don't know anything about it really but everywhere I read I see this more and more.
I get encouragement and inspiration by watching the videos of this channel. My channel is progressing slowly. Thank you so much for watching my channel.
Honestly, I feel like my videos often do better when I DO focus on the algorithm. When I simply focus on quality, I often get a higher percentage of likes and sometimes better watch time percentage, but the video doesn't necessarily get shared as much by RU-vid. So I think the advice about focusing on quality is great for a mid-size or larger channel, but for a new channel, my experience is that you do really need to focus on the algorithm.
Actually I have the same problem, I always ask myself what I’m doing wrong… Even posting every week is not helping and seeing your views are going down every day is depressing! I think the best thing is to stay positive and keep going and hoping not to get burned out…
Sometimes the videos get 5k views in just half an hour or in less but I can't understand how the same video stuck ..and couldn't cross 6k views..how the algorithm worked here can't be imagined..so enjoy your life ..rest will follow you if you are consistent with good content.👍💰
So true. I guess it peaks at a point when people move on to other issues or another channel posted a 'more valuable' version and the algorithm drops one and recommends the other more. I don't bother much. If I made one hit, I can always make another. Nothing lasts forever they say, right?
90% of your algorithm can be exploited based off the examples @youtubecreators has given in this video, keeping creators who has larger audience that cover similar or the same topics or niches on top of smaller creators with a smaller audiences, or even bot channels who use they're bots to obtain more views and subscribers to give the illusion that their channel is doing well. It seems like @youtube knows this to be true and have given them self an out by blaming your low views on the audience instead of creating a system that is not this easily exploited, by larger creators or channels who specialize in using bots that RU-vid's systems do not detect.
I think it's still exactly the same content you would do to increase viewer retention, thumbnail impressions will increase with view rate. Thumbnails and titles probably increase video clicks, everyone everything is interrelated, and I still don't understand how much but I think it's still acceptable.
Once a viewer is not interacting with a channel for a longtime, you should send an automatic email asking to unsubscribe. That's useful for creators to have a gist of how many active subscribers they actually have.
You can just look at analytics and do the math with how many average views you get on your videos and how many people are already subscribed when watching said video. Then compare that number to your subscriber count.
You say "creators ask, what type of videos does the algorithm like best?". This is later followed up by "focus on knowing your audience and what they like". My question is, what if I want to change my content to a different subject? Am I at the mercy of my audience not wanting me to change, thus forcing me to keep producing the same content? Would I have to create a new youtube channel to break free, and what if I don't want to create a new youtube channel? What is your solution for this problem?
i got an idea from you to just stay tunned,be patient,be consistent,be improving,be loving what you like or you too love that others like to watch..success cant be achieved within short time it ll acquire long time with long effort
Also you have actual humans that teach the algorithm. The raters rate us on reputation and quality. The reputation score gives famous poeple and megachannels a leg up. I've looked into this extensively. They rate the quality of each video and also the entire channel. They want to know who runs the channel, so if you don't put your name in the about section then that isn't good. Search and discovery is greatly impacted by how the human raters rate us. Maybe you should make a video about that.
Help. I have a multiple audiences. I make variety of content: memes, lyrics, adopt me, turning red, will smith. And its hard to stop making variety of content.

Thanks for sharing! Great video. I was a little worried about the frequency of my videos but I'll keep on mind: Quality over quantity, it was a balm to me to hear it.
Thank you for this video, you clarified some of my questions. Most of us wonder about how the algorithm works, so, bottom line is, create content that is worth watching
I hardly get any views on my videos and I post new video gameplay of PS5 And Nintendo Switch Games and I can't even get 100 views per video or higher in less than a day and other people will be posting the same video games I upload and they get thousands of views for each one of their videos.
Honest and frank question 🤕 take a look at the quality of content I upload, vs the interactions I get, why is it like that? I'm not the best RU-vidr out there, but I am also not that bad. Mind you, I even sponsored ads on and off the platform to help with getting subscribers. Unsure what else to say, really...
Thank you @youtubecreators for always releasing fantastic content to help us creators succeed! I'm really liking all of the new changes. Hopefully we will see longer "shorts" in the future as well. Maybe 90 second or even three minute possibility for shorts!?
As a viewer, I would appreciate if RU-vid allowed me to actually search for what I wanted instead of pushing stuff I did not search for in my face every time I try to use the essentially pointless search feature. You guys own Google. It really can't be that hard.
Believe me, Google owns RU-vid, by a lot. RU-vid revenue stream is RU-vid, Google revenue stream is every website you visit, every search, for every website in the world. But I agree, RU-vid search is just as pointless as Google search. Both are lazy engines. Hardly can be called database at all. You can't query it. If someone ever built a good search engine, the world...
Definitely agree that we should spend less time trying to keep a daily upload schedule and more time ensuring we are making videos at the quality they deserve to be. The subscribers will still be there and will make the uploads even more special when they are further apart. Can you imagine a band trying to release an album every day?
There is a difference between full blown artistic types and the fast food types. Fast food types win the content war, but , artists can create timeless pieces. Obviously, the system prefers fast food. it makes easier money. I am going with the art. Because that's what I like doing.
Great info, will apply some of these things to our Channel. Id also say, make videos that you enjoy too. We love what we do and RU-vid is the best excuse for us to keep doing what we are doing.
This is a great video it answered so many questions I had. Understanding how RU-vid works it is so important. You see so many RU-vidrs who give advice will say just the opposite. Thank you so much for breaking it down
This was very informative. But I have a few doubts. First: I don't understand how it is possible that my videos are not recommended to my subscribers? If someone is a subscriber to my channel and does not receive recommendations for my video (and it happens, my subscribers report such situations to me), then I think that the algorithm is not working properly. Second: Is it possible that the algorithm considers the percentage of views in relation to the number of subscribers instead of the number of views? It's not the same when I have 1000 views on a channel with 7 thousand subscribers and someone else has the same number of views with 50 thousand subscribers. My percentage is much higher in that case and I should have higher recommendations from the algorithm. And one request: Can RU-vid services change the "Subscribe" button for the Bosnian language. The currently used translation is not good, because "Pretplati se" in Bosnian does not mean "Subscribe" but means "Pay to follow" and that incorrectly shows the subscribe option. Thank you.
This was very informative and helpful. Thank you for explaining. I have tried to contact RU-vid due to our channel being demonetized because my mom's femoral head completely broke off. (Her hip). I was working full time, going to school full time, then I took care of her full time. I did not know you changed to having to upload or make public or post on community every six months. This was the time, I had no time, I could have made one of my videos public that I had already uploaded, but they were private. Was there any way to have appealed being demonetized? Anyway, I am trying not to be discouraged. I will continue to work toward regaining monetization. To anyone taking the time to read this comment, I wish you well in life and for your channel's success.😄
Can you then do a dedicated video on the RU-vid-8m dataset and how being in that has given an advantage to creators like Tati, sssniperwolf, pewdiepie….it’s a joke at this point to say there is no algorithm bias. Your own Google AI team has raised concerns over AI bias!
Very informative video! Thanks for sharing such a good information with us. Take away message, focus on the audience not the algorithm ✅ I will employ this in my next videos
Great information! I just looked at trends in 2 categories I want to include in a new video podcast and learned that I should probably promote one over the other in my titles. Thanks for sharing!
Don’t forget if a creator makes a documentary that is almost an hour and a half long with about 8 seconds of a clip that has profanity, you will age restrict that, demonetize, and kill the view counts of an amazing video, reducing the view count and the money the creator should make off the content that keeps us coming to your platform. Your appeal process also seems to need an overhaul, have seen many creators complain about these issues.
One of the biggest challenges faced by new content creators is the increasing competition. With the continuously growing amount of content, it becomes more difficult to build a loyal fan base. Furthermore, the RU-vid algorithm tends to prioritize content from popular creators with large followings, making it difficult for new creators to be discovered by potential users. Moreover, many new content creators also struggle with promoting their content. Most of them do not have a big budget for effective promotion, which makes it difficult to reach a wider audience. This creates a vicious cycle in which new creators feel trapped, as they are unable to attract enough attention to gain significant views and income, which in turn limits their ability to produce higher quality content in the future. As a leading platform, I hope that RU-vid can provide more support for new content creators to grow and thrive on the platform. This can be done by optimizing the algorithm, providing greater resources for promotion and fan base development, and offering more opportunities for creators to stand out and be discovered. In this way, I am confident that we can see more creative and diverse content on this platform.
Good video. Very informative. I watch a lot of growth hacking RU-vid channels and they always explain RU-vid in the most complicated way possible. And they always want money from you. Videos like this one explain RU-vid in a way that makes it seem doable. RU-vid isn't perfect but it's the only social media platform that actually tries to help creators to succeed. They don't get enough credit for that.
So in summary, CREATE WHAT YOUR AUDIENCE IS INTERESTED IN such that the Engagement, click rate and view duration matches the algorithm tools. Success to all creators

Hi, I started with realistic and character drawing. My videos was not getting many views so i started making DIY and easy drawing. Now, I am drawing everything from beginners to pro level. But still haven't seen any difference in views. it's very disappointing and i don't know what else to do.
Dear friends from RU-vid! Thank you very much for your help and great work! After all, your platform provides great opportunities for novice authors, and also inspires millions of people around the world! Keep it up! 💙💛👍
