Youtube shorts begining advice

You should start normally; choose one niche, focus on a strong hook in the first seconds, and post consistently. Don’t overthink gear or editing—learn as you go. AI can help with ideas, but add your own touch. Test what works, check retention, and monetize after you build steady views.

you don't need any special tricks to blow up shorts, even basic shorts content gets huge views, however we do suggest you upload shorts that are interesting and also niche based. You can use ai ideas, but do not use ai generated videos, although there are channels that blow up, its better to start something that is non-ai unless your starting a niche or creating videos that are super interesting with ai.

For Shorts, make sure to always start with an aged channel, at least one year old, and warm up the channel for about 7 days before starting to post on it.

Shorts are a solid way to get eyes on a new channel, but the "fast and easy" approach usually leads to a dead end. Most beginners treat them like TikTok and just throw random clips at the wall, but YouTube is much more focused on retention. If your hook isn't visual or high-energy within the first three seconds, people swipe and the video is dead.
The biggest mistake to avoid is the re-upload trap. If you are just grabbing clips from movies or other creators and putting a filter over them, you will likely get flagged for reused content when you apply for monetization. YouTube wants original value. Also, try to avoid the "sub for sub" groups. They just give you dead subscribers who won't actually watch your videos, which kills your reach in the long run.
Regarding AI, you can definitely use it for scripting, voiceovers, or generating b-roll, but you have to be careful. YouTube has become much stricter about low-effort AI content. If it looks and sounds like a generic robot reading a Wikipedia page, it probably won't get monetized. To make AI work, you need to add a unique human layer, like your own specific editing style or a unique perspective that a bot couldn't just generate on its own.
You really don't need a paid course to learn this stuff. Most of the best info is free on YouTube itself. Just look up creators who break down the latest algorithm shifts for the current year. The best strategy is to pick one specific theme and stick to it so the algorithm knows who to show your videos to. If you mix too many different topics on one channel, the system gets confused and stops pushing your content.

You don't tell us your niche or theme

In my humble experience the only i can say to you:

Make it very short (10-15 secs)
Make it more entertaining than professional speech at first
Find the 50 main competitors and make a list of topics
Create at least 30 shorts before start to publish
Publish at least 5 shorts a day for two weeks to show YT you are there to stay

Start YouTube Shorts with niche, hooky, under-30s videos. Use AI for scripts or edits but polish manually. Post consistently and track what works.

Starting a youtube shorts channel is very good idea. Shorts definitely got high reach and gives you max views in short time. You can use Ai tools to generate short videos. Mostly people are working on shorts now a days and they are earning good money. Just select you content and generate videos under 60 seconds with Ai tools. Make the starting of video very attractive, so that audience hold and watch it completely. Edit your videos perfectly add effects and transitions so that your content quality looks like a pro. Don't post too much on daily basis, just Post 2 to 3 shorts and stay consistent and maintain your quality so that people stick around it.

The best and most accurate advice is to simply film. Even if you are not doing it correctly, even if you make mistakes, please do not stop posting videos. Sooner or later, you will find your format/niche that will make you successful.
