Update: Hey guys! I haven't posted an update in a bit but that's because there's nothing really exciting going on. I'm still doing at least one video a day but I really REALLY don't know why this channel hasn't been able to pull through as well as my competitors. I have tried a ton of different...

Update: I am liking the sub strategy with shorts and hopefully it can speed up this monetization process. Newest video was also a 1/10, which is very nice. I have been looking at the YouTube Automation community on Twitter and I notice quite a few channels have old videos blow up later on to...

Update: Remember that the MAIN graph includes videos and shorts, meaning it's misleading. Focus more on the longform graph to really see the progress I am making as this is a longform channel. I am just using shorts to gain subs, which is actually working pretty okay! I am just spamming pretty...

I've heard of this too and it has me worried. This is definitely risky but I believe that YouTube will eventually calm down on this. Obviously YouTube wants to implement AI onto their platform eventually with everything Google has been doing, so my belief is that they will stop being so harsh on it.

Not really no. If I had more money I might hire an editor to add something to it but for now I am just taking the prompts with little to no editing. I add a "subscribe" graphic at the beginning and end and a channel watermark

Update: Doesn't seem to be slowing down. I am trying the shorts method to try and get subs, and if I can get one to reach the right audience I could be getting tons of subs off it. However even with low views it is still helping so I will continue to post shorts (super low effort). It sucks...

Yes, just one channel

Update: I found a video format that is doing consistently well so I am going to continue to milk it. I am also planning on spamming shorts in order to try and get some more subscribers. Still banking on getting monetized by the end of the month. Stats: Videos: 27 +1 Shorts: 4 +0 Longform...

I switched to a new service that allows me to directly use an account, much faster and more consistent. Search around on the forums and you'll definitely find a provider (idk if I am allowed to directly say who I got it from). I haven't used GenAIPro since they had a blip where it went down for...

Update: The best day so far for views! Newest video is a 1/10, so pretty great day. I've talked to a few people in this space and some have suggested posting multiple shorts a day (as they are very easy to make and the more shorts you have, the more chances you have of getting a good amount of...

I'd say yes for RPM reasons. A US-based account will probably automatically help push your videos to a USA audience. Not sure if it matters for getting reach.

Update: Still not much to say. Steady progress, and at this rate once monetized I'd make around $115 a month..? But of course the channel has been growing and eventually my baseline would get higher or I'd get outlier videos, or perhaps I'm underestimating the RPM. Who knows. I think this...

Update: Missed a day for updates but I still had a video that day and I am still continuing on. An older video seems to be picking up steam, and is at around 2,000 views and growing. Typically the cycle of this is either it completely blows up or completely dies out, so we'll see. Stats...

Videos range from 10-20 minutes. Worst retention tends to be about 20% and best is like 40%.

Update: Hit 10,000 longform views! Pretty great milestone but I still have a ways to go. At the very least it seems like my "baseline" is starting to get higher and higher. That's a good sign for future videos. Stats: Videos: 22 +2 Shorts: 4 +0 Longform Views: 10,400 +1,100 Shortform Views...
