Youtube Shorts. Suddenly dropped.

[stev212]

Hey, so I'm almost about a month in youtube shorts, everything was fine and it got better with time.
But last 4 days it's suddenly stop.
New videos getting 0 views, old videos getting at max 400 views a day.
What's going on?
Any reason why it happens?
Nothing change I'm uploading normally.
Tho one of my videos got removed, could it make a difference? BTW I tried with more channels and nothing got views. Nothing at all

I also got a message from YouTube that removed 2 links of mine, maybe it can answer something idk

What type of videos?

Maybe something you have uploaded was just in the "perfect time" while other videos are late on a party.

I'm just guessing, it can be anything...

Shorts.

Anyway it's just not working like that. Almost 30 videos in a row with more than 1k views avg on 20k and suddenly 4 days ago 0-5 views on any new video

Maybe Youtube picked up your video is affiliate promotion.

Maybe, but why would no video get to short shelf? They removed the link. And why on all channels.

The link perhaps has been flagged as a spam link.

Seems like that, but how it effects other videos?
YouTube even says "it will not affect your channel" tho it's hard to believe them lmao

If you have the same flagged link in all the videos on the channel, it is easy for Youtube to find the link on all your videos. You should perhaps use a landing page instead. Using the same link on all the videos will raise a red flag.

Only one video had the link and the flag and they removed the link.
BTW I tried to use linktr.ee and it got removed as well(without warning, just removed)

Your channel is died now. If youtube consider a video or a link on your channel as a spam and removed it your channel and all relevant channels are under shadow ban and that's more easy to delete them and create new than trying to do something with that.

linktr.ee is banned on most social platforms, try buy a cheap $1 domain from namecheap and redirect to a landing page with your affiliate link.

Other channels still getting attention and I made new travel niche channel which start to pop up now.
So I don't think it's shadow ban, not for all of the channels at least

It's definitely a shadow ban, at least for your channel with Shorts.
I had the same situation after receiving Community Guidelines Warning, you can find my thread.

I can't say that it extends to all the channels associated with you.

Yes. You are correct. Latest YT Shorts are getting lesser views only.
2 Reasons I stopped making YT Shorts
1. No gain in Subscribers and
2. No major improvement in Watch time due to lesser time of video usually less than 60 seconds..
Better concentrate on Major content.

Some are banking with the YouTube shorts fund.
