just like the title said, i lost my channel which had 5k subs and one of my video which i uploaded 2 days ago got seriously viral and just when it was about to hit 5m views the channel got suspended
Ok let's clear this up for you.
1. You only had 5k subs yet one of your videos was about to hit 5 million views? This means you didn't do anything
on your own that got you 5 mil viral video. It means someone else (or many others) shared your video on their
channel or social media platform who had a huge following and got your video to go viral like that. If it was
something you did like a secret sauce, then you'd have more than 1 video that got 5 mil views and you'd have
way more subs than 5k.
2. The good news is you only had 5k subs. You can easily make 5k subs overnight if you really have good stuff
and it goes viral. Seriously. I did an experiment where I barely put in any work myself and got 17k subs in
1 month. Obviously, it was just an experiment so I only have a couple vids that went mad viral and hit 1-2 mil
views, a couple others at 300-500k but most of them under 50k views. When something goes viral, it usually
has little to do with you (meaning your content). It's like a tidal wave. You get lucky and some big shots come
along and like what they saw by chance coming across your video, they share it and boom you go viral overnight.
But then you wonder why the rest of the videos didn't have the same success.
3. If you got suspended, it wasn't for no reason. You either had 3 strikes, were a repeat offender (linked you to
previous or past accounts that got banned), or you infringed on some serious rights.
Since you mentioned that you used other person's content and just sort of edited it, then you become fair game for YT do whatever they want with your account and just suspend it. I hate that YT is very vague and they never tell you specifically what video or what part of the video was reused content. It just seems arbitrary and depends on what human reviewer you get...someone in a good mood or someone who woke up on the wrong side of bed and irritable that day.
Let us know how your new channel is doing. I'm curious to know if it's going to get suspended or not.
