Update: This is insane, sometimes I think I am dreaming LOL. @PaddyVu changed my life.

My fastest growing video ever.

I added main keywords, views gain from 40 to 400/h, weird. Algorithm starts changing their system i think, my new video no longer get buffed from algorithm anymore ( impression reduced a lot, also CTR is lower than i thought, from around 20% down to 8-10% )

lmao, my channel is limited views per hour or what? 2 gain, 1 lost

Yeah will do that once I unlocked the feature.

But on my FORBIDDEN list is definetly End screen views on top now. They will literally kill your channel.
you sure? my videos do fine with all end screens on the latest video setting.

Completely added all main keywords to all videos except those already got views, so near death videos may affect other videos if i change title lol

Delete video that perform poorly will help newer videos ! ( i deleted 2 video, 1 is 200 views, 1 is 2k views )
Idk if deleting videos is good for your channel tbh. If a video performs bad so what? Just leave it on the channel. I think you will ultimately harm your channel, especially in the long run.

umm it only help newer videos, but older videos that already gain views will be reduced, deleted comment
Update : Actually 1 gain 1 lost... my channel maybe limited views per hour anyway, i will need to test more...

Update 2 : Helped actually, weird, before i said deleted trash video could hurt channel, but it actually help. I will try to delete 1 more trash video to see what will happen :D hope i wont kill my channel XD

The thing is, your views go down when it's night in US and go up when the day starts. I do not even think it has anything to do with you changing titles etc.

The dip in views is nighttime

Helped actually, it never gain more than like 800 in an hour but this is madness...
The videos i deleted have average watch duration from viewers are 22s and 30s, which is below average
@SkeetSkeet34 if you look closely, the video may 30, 2022 never get more than 800, mostly 300-400, u can see my history comments, after i delete video, just after 2 minutes, it gain like this
Update 2 : This is madness
1654445134619.png

i think i will stop posting new videos until this madness views come to an end because each time i post new video, old video reduce its views a lot
Here is the video @SkeetSkeet34
I remember someone mention that a video can kill entire channel but i'm not sure how does it work so i decide to risk by deleting it

Well you have a different approach. I am not trying to force it. If the video doesn't gain, I move on and upload the next.
 
CTR is KING, it has higher priority over high retention. Your CTR must be always above 15% for browse feature ( This can make u have atleast 100k views and above ) ( Mine is 19.2% and sitting at 500k views right now )
6% CTR vs 100% watchtime is worse than 15% CTR vs 50% watch time. Try to aim above 50% watch time, below i dont recommended.
NO
you didnt discover youtube algorithm yet!

I am having similar results. But I don't understand why is that... My CTR is terrible and still getting recommended.

Its a second video on that channel btw.
Your CTR is different from Catalog, yours is from SUGGESTED views, which is quite good, most of suggested CTR is below 1%, mine too, 0.5% CTR. Your video got suggested from a similar video, this need a lot of luck to get it. But for me, it's best to build Browse Feature views, they watch from home page which is better from suggested views. Home Page view is god type of all views

This video i failed to make algorithm push because retention is below 75% but i manage to get suggested views because i use so many external views from community posts ( This happen to my channel only because the moment i post a lot of short video => entire channel will only recommend to those similar retention rate, duration doesnt matter, but it must always above 75% rentention rate )
External is good for suggested views while CTR and retention rate are good for Browse Feature views :)

Change pin comment could affect algorithm, algorithm count not only the duration they watch a video but also duration they watch comment, change pin comment can change viewers's behaviour => changing algorithm on that video
