YouTube ghosting videos!

Yes maybe this is the reason, i used much competitor keywords with high searches monthly i also changed the name of my channel so it might be because of that. BTW if i make changes in the title, tags and channel name can i escape ghosting without reupload?

Thanks

The answers is yes, but you still won't get suggested. That's the main problem. Also I've seen other channels start getting views (100k-1m per vid) from the first couple of videos. I don't know how youtube decide to put them instantly in recommended.

I don't want to be in recommended but only to show on the first 3 spots after user perform search. I found really good niche with much searches monthly and very very low competition. But it seems aint easy to rank
 
It does not have to be a unique video to get ghosted, if you use a new account or use certain types of titles with words like hacks or cheats your videos will get ghosted too. Btw, what was the reason you got a strike? copyrights?

Yes, I got a fake strike from Apilex Software. They are assholes.
 
I am not a guru on YouTube by any means but from what I seen, in my understanding it is completely random sometimes and can't be explained. Poorly optimized and overall poorly made videos make it to the top, while ones optimized better tend to not rank at all nowhere.
 
if you use unused accounts its normal videos get ghosted not indexed sometimes.

you must be active with your account not only post videos but also have watched videos etc. all must look natural to youtube because youtube is not dumb.

I had 4 vids on my account and all are ranked well but the 5th is ghosted, i am also using it as my main account and i am active, i got replies from big accounts too with more than 1mil. subs.

delete and re upload

Do you really think that will solve the problem? Also should i re-upload the same video or should i edit it just a little bit different? Also i am using very low competition keywords with big Search Volume. Should i remove some tags with that keywords?

Thanks

not sure but it can work, sometimes youtube is just weird there is nothing to understand. yes edit a little.

also sometimes some keywords cant be ranked for some reasons, try other keyword maybe.
 
Hello guys,

So I faced this exact same problem since 1-2 weeks, I was looking at bhw daily and wait to see a thread like this, so thank you.

I try a lot of different scenarios, I was pretty sure it was a footprint problem but I didn't know where it happens.

First, I thinked it was an account problem and I made some test with different account type, different proxies, browser, etc.. and still my video get ghosted. I mean I didn't change anything in my usual process, everything is optimized well, and my videos are just totally ghosted no matter what keywords & Filters I use.

Something is wrong

I edit every videos I upload (time duration, background picture, text element, music, etc..) and they are all unique BUT there are 30 seconds of video (and only on a 200*600 range of pixel of 1280*720) I use on all my videos.

From what I read on this thread, I now think that this is the main reason why videos get ghosted immediately. I will try to upload with a 100% unique videos, without any reused video even if it's a partial range of pixel and I will give feedback.

YouTube checks video content while processing it. It's real time. Thus the content ID system. So if they can use processing for Content ID, they must be using it to detect duplicate content and many more things. Think of it as a Google. Just like duplicate text content is hard to index, same with videos. It's just the matter of data the system is processing. Else we will see same videos on 1st page if everyone starts boosting them.

YouTube isn't kidding around that's why they are at the top. Their system is very powerful and also has many flaws like fake copyright strikes or flagging but still, they are clever than us. Ask yourself, will you allow spammers to upload duplicate content if it was your own platform? Not only the pixels but audio is also checked by the automated system.

You need unique content. No spam. No mass upload crap.

I record my own videos so there's no duplicate content but some of my videos still get ghosted.
