Sudden Drop in views, threshold theory? case study?

The video is getting more and more views per hour. The important part of this discovery is that the views come from suggested which I didn‘t get a single one in the past 20 days (ever since my views dropped).

If my channel is "recovering" from this and I can prove the threshold theory, it will be a groundbreaking discovery.

I will keep you guys updated but so far everything looks promising.

This is a very good indicator, bro.

A couple of single views from "suggested" spread over the day / 48h can occur even on a "dead" (or shadowbanned/capped) channel, but once you see 2,3 or more of them coming in directly one after the other, it is a sign, that there is "something" happening in the background and that the algo is actually adjusting things (possibly refilling the threshold?)

That's exactly how my stats looked like right at the beginning of the last "viral phase" on my channel. It all started with 2-3 views per hour from "suggested" (they came out of a sudden). Views from "suggested" kept growing and cumulating hour by hour, day by day and after a week, you know, BOOM! - views were exploding (channelwide).

It's like a steam train starting slow, but accelerating more and more.

Yeah bro I was gonna say, it's exactly like when my channel started blowing up. I did get 2-3 suggested views per hour and it slowly increased day by day and after 1-2 weeks it just exploded out of nowhere. I would be really happy to be back on track so all my effort for the channel wasn't for nothing.

I think the point is to get the threshold so big that you can not even reach the full amount of views per month so you can grind month for month that would be my biggest goal.

Let's see how it goes I am optimistic, how is your channel looking at the moment?
 
Newest video, it's been exactly 2 days now since uploaded.

40 Views in total, 18% CTR... and still no push. Can NOBODY tell me the problem is on my end, nobody!

I honestly don't know what do to anymore... I publish the best content ever and nothing happens. I feel like I am uploading videos for myself only at this point...

I will upload a new video today and see if anything changes...

My niche is news about musicartists I HIGHLY doubt that the niche is not big enough? Have you even read my thread? I already had 1 million impressions on my videos, please read the thread before you even reply...

How are your videos performing lately? Any updates?

regards,

Has anyone tried to solve this by re-uploading videos on another channel (after deleting the shadowbanned channel/videos)?
Does YT penalize ppl for doing this or can it be done without any issues (even on same gmail account/IP)?

Just curious. Maybe it can be solved that way.

Curious about this too since nothing remains clear with YT's rules when it comes about re-uploading one's own content, whether from TikTok or even from another perfectly green YT account.
 
When you upload new video retention should be %70 and ctr should be over of %15. After what your video will show on youtube homepage with thousands views.

Believe me. Here is my and most youtube expert's method. :)

Worse than ever, I have like 100 views in 48 hours now despite good retention and good CTR.

I will upload one final video tomorrow and if it doesn't do better im going to either make a new channel or leave it be.

70% retention... for a <1mn video maybe, but I don't think this is possible for longer videos, not to mention music or comedy videos for instance where average retention rates are probably very low, whatever the view numbers.

So need ctr bot first time with private system.
 
Update: Going to upload a new video in a few hours and if it doesn't pop off by next week I will make a new channel with a different niche...
