Is it over?
I started a Minecraft channel (mainly shorts) back in late December. I used an aged account so my shorts can start getting views right away.
It was working great up until 2 days ago. Every short I uploaded would get 400-500 views early on. If it wasn’t that good of a short it would stop at 400-500 views, but if people liked it then it would go up to 15,000 views. I uploaded consistently everyday with around 1 out of every 3 shorts getting 1k+ views. I went from 0 subscribers to 440.
3 days ago I uploaded 2 shorts in 1 day for the first time, but the issue was those shorts were not good and preformed badly (low view rate etc) but they still got to 400-500 views before the algorithm stopped sharing them. I only uploaded them because thought “it’s fine I’ll upload better ones in the upcoming days”.
But since I uploaded those shorts, my shorts over the last 2 days have gotten ZERO views outside of the views from my friends who I sent the link to. It’s also disappointing because the recent shorts were in my opinion some of the best ones I’ve made so far.
My shorts are now being shown to nobody. There’s no way I am be shadow banned because my content is in no way offensive. Will my shorts just never be in anyone’s feed ever again? Why did this happen? If you upload a couple shorts that do badly the algorithm will never share one of your shorts on anyone’s feed ever again? This is very saddening because I’ve put a lot of time into this to keep uploading daily and now it seems like my channel is over.
