NICE MAN!!! I broke a $200 day back in March and it was one of the best feelings in the world. The problem is youtube updates/bans started killing my motivation so I started to slack off. Now I'm back at it again and I *almost* broke a $200 day the first day of the month... but it is SO FREAKN HARD to do!
And what drives me insane.... it's not the work that's "hard". Like I know exactly what to do and how to do it. The problem is retention view suppliers. Their views are always getting patched now and I swear to god if I could find just 1 reliable retention view supplier, who DOESN'T get videos banned, I KNOW I could EASILY crush $500 / day and do it consistently. Because I know what keywords convert, I know what products convert, I know how to make converting videos, I know how to rank them..... I just can't get them to stick like they use to.
And I'm starting to think a consistent $100/day isn't gonna be possible with youtube.
So right now I'm not sure what to do.
There was 1 video I boosted with views, ranked #1 on Google with GSA, and it was performing pretty well bringing in about $600-$800 / month.
A few weeks pass and it gets BANNED.
I wound up RERANKING this video 2 more times #1 on Google, and the 3rd time it got banned I wanted to punch my screen.
Some videos slip through for whatever reason and don't get banned. But it's a very low %.... hence the low earnings.
But if there is ANYONE on this forum who can provide retention views, views that do NOT lead to banning, and you want to team up I'm down.
Otherwise I'm gonna have no other choice then to ditch YT completely and try ranking sites instead. Or doing PPC.

Thanks for you post and for your screen shot BB,
Is the screen shot just for one product?
So if you can bring the video to the first page of G -specially after the last G updates- then why are you bothering yourself with fake views?!
You can capture a good amount of views naturally through G....
Furthermore what is your idea about why G banned your videos? Is it just due to fake views or it has something to do with GSA SER (ie a generating a huge amount of backlinks per day) as well?

That screenshot was for 3 products. 1 brings in about 60% of my sales the other 2 bring in about 40% of my sales.
Then I have a couple JV's too that randomly bring in sales.
You (I) can't rank a youtube video on Google unless that video is first ranked on youtube. So every video I rank basically gets ranked twice.
It gets ranked on youtube with retention views, then it gets ranked on Google with GSA.
I've tried doing it without retention videos but I noticed if your video isn't on the first page of youtube it won't rank on Google no matter how hard you try.
It's definitely not GSA. It's 100% the retention views.
The real issue isn't just the quality of the views but how sellers are using them.
These days youtube is very good at detecting abnormal spikes of traffic. And video stats should never be a perfectly straight horizontal line like __/\___
They should start slow, then gradually increase the speed day after day so you wind up with a natural curve in your stats.
No view sellers will do that. They'll drip feed but even when they drip feed its a perfectly straight line and that's NOT how real, organic views come in.
And then there is the fact that youtube has hired a HUGE staff to stay on top of this problem (they expanded last January). So it's definitely retention views
that are my main sticking point.
