Hello, everyone. Not long ago, I created a new channel. I'm new to YouTube and don't know all the ins and outs. For my shorts, I use a script that creates 90% of my videos. They are all similar, but the text in the videos is also created using elevenlabs.

Question: Do you think I should continue uploading my videos or try a different niche? My videos are about Backrooms. At the beginning, I uploaded 3 shorts a day. I was advised not to give up and to continue uploading 1-2 videos a day so that the algorithm would better understand who to show my videos to. What is your opinion?

If you need additional details from analytics, etc., I am ready to provide them if necessary.

Stick with it for now. Consistency helps the algorithm learn your audience. Backrooms is a cool niche, but to stand out, add some unique twist like storytelling or better production. Keep an eye on analytics, but give it a bit of time before switching niches.
 
Keep uploading consistently Shorts need time to catch the algorithms attention especially if you stick to one niche like Backrooms
 
Yes, keep uploading — YouTube is a long-term grind. The algorithm takes time to understand your niche and audience. Consistency matters way more than short-term results. Keep posting 1–2 quality shorts daily, test different hooks/thumbnails, and watch your retention stats. Momentum builds slowly, then scales fast once YouTube starts pushing your content.
 
stick with it untill you find a new niche that you are more interested in.
 
If it's working (getting any views and subscribers) don't change the content. The algorithm is learning, stick to 1-2 shorts per day, but focus on improving the hooks in the first 3 seconds.

The backrooms niche can work, but audience retention is key. Check your analytics, if the average view duration is above 50-60% you're on the right track.
 
Keep posting consistently for a month or two Shorts usually take time before the algorithm starts pushing them properly.
 
Experimenting with fresh angles within the Backrooms theme might spark more interest. Sometimes subtle tweaks in style or presentation can make a big difference before considering a full niche change.

Yepp, you should keep it up. Also, you mentioned your script is similar, do you mean your content is similar, or that you’re using the same tool to create it? If it’s the first case, maybe you should change the content a bit, for example, try presenting it from a different point of view. As for the metrics you shared, I think they look quite positive, keep it up.
 
Niche growth often takes time keep uploading regularly, but focus on adding variety in your videos, like mixing in theory videos or fan reactions. The algorithm rewards engagement and watch time, so creating content that sparks comments or shares could boost your channel faster.
