Hello there! As you may or may not know from some of my previous posts, I've been looking for a way to mass-create YouTube channels to simulate a mass action (e.g. liking and disliking a video). Now, I've already created over 900 channels manually (100 channels per gmail account - YouTube allows you to have up to 100 channels per 1 account, if you verify the account to receive advanced features) using virtual phone numbers, but there is a problem - since the accounts are new and have little to no history, when I tried testing them by liking and disliking my videos on my main channel, YouTube removed the dislikes very soon.

I need a way to warm up the accounts so that they have history and YouTube doesn't consider them to be bots. I also need a way to, when I will need to like or dislike a particular video, be able to easily switch between the accounts to perform a mass-action on them without having to do it manually.

Now, I already researched into this topic a bit and found out several possible solutions, such as: Selenium, Puppeteer, Browser Automation Studio (BAS) with rotating residential proxies, a non-detection browser or Socinator, but honestly I don't know if any of these will work anymore on what I need, since from what I've seen on the forum, many people struggle with this too. I've already tried some of these possible solutions (namely Selenium and BAS), and I may try some of the others ones based on the feedback I'll get.

If there's anyone here who has an experience with this, I'll gladly take your advice to heart.

I'd like to say that I do NOT intend to mass-dislike a video to hate on someone or whatever. The reason I need the ability to mass-like or mass-dislike a video is probably a bit silly I guess, but I'll disclose that it's for a YouTube competition where the likes and dislikes serve as a form of "voting".

I would like to say beforehand that I'm not very good at coding, so please don't expect me to be an expert on that, sadly. From what I've seen, I need to "warm up" the channel by giving them history (having them watch videos, like and subscribe to channels, etc.) so that they're "warmed up" and YouTube doesn't consider them bots. I also need a rotating residential proxy so that each channel can get warmed up without me having to do it manually.

That's quite a task you've set for yourself. Mass channel creation and simulating activity is definitely a challenge especially with YouTube's bot detection. You're right about needing to warm up the accounts. Think of it like building trust with YouTube's algorithm. The solutions you mentioned like Selenium Puppeteer and BAS are viable options but require some technical skill. Since you're not too keen on coding a browser automation tool with residential proxies is likely your best bet. You can probably find some no-code automation tools that could help you. Look for something with a user-friendly interface where you can visually design the automation workflow. Focus on mimicking human behavior such as watching videos subscribing to channels and engaging with content. A good proxy service is critical to avoid detection. Good luck!
 
This won’t work. The fact that there are 100 channels under one account is already a red flag for YouTube. When these channels start liking and commenting on each other's content, YouTube can easily detect it. Even if you use proxies and anti-detect browsers, the mere fact that all 100 channels are tied to a single account is already a giveaway.
 
you can do this like just doing manually scroll on shorts and watch some related content to your channel niche and then you can do you work. And i suggest you to upload a quality video one off your channel then and slowly doing like or dislike work make sure you have to get some organic like's then do this.

So what am I supposed to do, huh? Just give up and accept the fact that YouTube's algorithms are un unbeatable Goliath? I don't mean to be rude, but I made this thread to get an answer as to what do I do, not for people to tell me "give up", because that's not helping me at all.

You're spot on, mass-created YouTube accounts with no history get flagged easily, and their actions often get nulled. To warm them up properly, you’ll need behavioral simulation: real watch time, subscriptions, and comment activity over time. This is where mobile proxies shine, they give you real ASN, legit-looking geolocation, and dynamic IPs that make each account session feel like a unique user.
If you're using BAS or Puppeteer, make sure to also randomize browser fingerprints and stagger activity to avoid clear automation footprints. The key here isn’t just automation, it’s making each channel look like a real person doing real things.
 
Okay so I get what you're trying to do. It sounds pretty tricky. Warming up 900 accounts? That's a lot. The proxy thing makes sense to avoid getting flagged. Since you're not coding wiz maybe try a simpler automation tool not BAS. Some of those might have "warm up" templates you can tweak. Honestly even with proxies its gonna be tough to fool YouTube completely. They're pretty smart about this stuff. Good luck with your voting competition though!

Thanks for the advice, but... how do I do that? I have literally zero experience automating stuff. Frankly, so far the best thing I could make out of BAS based on the tutorials I've watched was simulate an action from my account only (liking a few videos, subscribing to a few channels, etc.). To be honest, I'm a bit afraid of the mobile proxies, because I saw some of them and they seem to be EXTREMELY expensive (I literally saw one proxy that costed 2000 dollars PER MONTH). So yes, I do want to make the channels look real, but how? Where do I start exactly?

May I ask, why not BAS? I mean, BAS IS an automation tool, and while quite complex (I guess), it's definitely still simpler to use than coding in Selenium or whatever. As for the simpler automation tool alternative, I've already looked at that, and Socinator seems to be one possible option. Idk how well it works as of 2025 though.

If you're just starting with BAS and don’t code, stick to one basic routine first: simulate a natural YouTube session with just video watch time (no likes or subs yet). Once that works smoothly, you can layer in likes, comments, and subscriptions. Use one mobile proxy per account session, rotate device fingerprints, and space out actions to mimic a real user. Once you build one stable routine, scaling becomes much easier.

I'm not saying you should give up, I'm just pointing out that there's a major flaw in your method that YouTube will easily catch: having 900 channels under only 9 Gmail accounts. Why not modify it a bit? Use multiple Gmail accounts, with no more than 10 channels per account. For example, you could have 90 Gmail accounts with 10 channels each. That would be a much safer approach.

I know I will sound stupid (and I probably am) but I honestly have no idea how to do any of the stuff you just said. I don't even know where to find a mobile proxy in the first place, let alone how to use only one per session, how to rotate it or space actions, etc. And honestly, based on what pastilan told me (this won't work, even with proxies, YouTube will detect it because the fact that 100 channels are connected to 1 account is already a big red flag) really discourages me. Honestly atp, I feel like I should just give up and ditch the whole thing. Not that I want to, no matter what I try, I probably won't beat YouTube's Goliath algorithms. :(

Well, I already have 100 channels per 1 account, so I'm afraid that it's a bit late for this advice. The reasaon why I went for the maximum amount (again, YouTube allows you to have up to 100 channels per 1 account) is that, to have multiple channels in the first place, you must first have access to advanced features, but to get them, you need verification with your phone number, and you can use one phone a maximum of two times. Since I only have 1 phone number, this would mean that I would literally need to buy 10 times the amount of phone numbers that I did (about 88), which is extremely expensive and inefficient. So yeah, I figured out that I'd rather go for the maximum amount. Your advice is effectively "you should have spent more on it", but my abilities are sadly very limited. I'm (sadly) not a millionaire, I can't afford spending thousands of dollars per month on proxies, complex programs, etc.

Don’t beat yourself up, nobody starts out knowing how to do all this. Feeling lost is normal when you're dealing with terms like fingerprints, session rotation, or mobile proxies. You don’t need to outsmart YouTube’s entire system, you just need to make things look a bit more human to avoid obvious red flags.
Start simple: one account, one session, one proxy. Once that’s working cleanly, you can build up. And yeah, 100 channels under one Gmail is a red flag, but it’s not a dead end, it just means you’ll need to warm them up more carefully and space out your actions. Keep going, you’re closer than you think.
 
Sorry, but you probably just wasted your time
100 channels under the same Google account, same IP, same fingerprints
They all being used to perform related actions like comments, likes, etc
Very likely to be shadowbanned, if it was so easy, those SMM panels wouldn't be using phone farms, they would be just creating a bunch of channels and abusing it this way

Yeah, you're probably right. I give up. I won't do this. It's useless anyway, and like pastilan said, even if I used a billion residential proxies, YouTube's gonna detect that anyway. If you have any other alternatives besides "give up and do nothing" for me, feel free to tell me, but right now, that's the only alternative solution I see here.

EDIT: regarding SMM panels, yeah, I've tried that too. I've tried several SMM panels to buy both likes and dislikes. The likes usually arrived just fine (I still have several hundred likes on my YouTube videos), but the dislikes never did. So, I know I can use the SMM Panels to get likes, but dislikes? Not so much. The problem is that I need the dislikes much more than I need the likes. However, even services which have a "guarantee" (or at least, claim to have one) don't work - for example, earlier today, I bought 1000 dislikes from one SMM panel for three of my unlisted videos just to see if it works, and guess how many arrived? ZERO.

I know about accessing advanced features because I have five monetized channels with millions of views. What exactly are you trying to achieve with your method? Are you trying to get thousands of likes on one main channel from your other channels? Why not just focus on creating quality content? It’s much easier and more sustainable. Blackhatting Youtube is not sustainable.

Why do you need dislikes? Are you planning to mass-dislike other people’s videos? That won’t work. Dislikes don’t matter much, especially when they come from viewers who didn’t even watch the video. If you understand YouTube’s current algorithm, you’ll know that dislikes have little to no impact. What really matters are metrics like watch time, click-through rate (CTR), and the percentage of the video that’s actually watched. Even if you give a video 10,000 dislikes, if those come from channels that didn’t watch the content, YouTube will easily flag them as malicious activity. And add to that the fact that those pathetic 900 dislikes came from just 9 Gmail accounts, Youtube will see it from 500 miles away..

Already said that in my initial post: "I'd like to say that I do NOT intend to mass-dislike a video to hate on someone or whatever. The reason I need the ability to mass-like or mass-dislike a video is probably a bit silly I guess, but I'll disclose that it's for a YouTube competition where the likes and dislikes serve as a form of "voting"." I don't know if you read this before or not. Creating quality content is completely irrelevant to this purpose.

EDIT: I already posted this message once, but I deleted it as to not spam and to properly reply to your question.
