Before monetization, my videos were well regarded, ranked higher in searches, after monetization on yt my videos started to drop in rank, still getting views and it's not a shadow ban, but has anyone faced the same?
I noticed that the view I get is the default for monetized channels with the same amount of subs as I have, there is a same channel in my niche that has almost exactly the same number of views on their videos, before monetization I had 5x the views he had, now I'm tied with him.
The theory that youtube controls the number of views for monetized videos is now making more sense as they have to control this in order to share the ad revenue equally with everyone, I will not explain this theory in detail nor use correct terms , but that's basically it.
The point here is that I had some profit before monetization via affiliate, now my profit has dropped due to the low number of views and consequently the low number of clicks on affiliate links, if I had known that I would not have monetized haha.
I have some channels , one channel first, another after, the first suffered from this first, then the second, the second one is falling faster, the first one still resists but the visualization dropped more than 50%, incredibly after mmonetization.
they are still in the search, well ranked (top 10), suggested in other videos, it is not shadow ban...
