Finally some good solid advice from a genuine person who’s sharing his experience with shorts. I think there’s a lot of small channels out there that are confused as to why their shorts don’t work like their long form videos, myself included. Thanks Jeven for sharing. It’s cleared a few things up for me. 👍
Hey Javen, I’ve been struggling with the flatline too. I appreciate your video and I wanted to know you’re a huge motivator to me, so keep pushing and keep creating man! ❤
Every time you two changes the algorithm, my views go down and they lose my audience. I’m unable to get my views passed 800 while I’m rocking and rolling. Now I’m flatlining at 26 views lately.
You nailed it, Jeven. I'll upload one or two shorts a week and it'll get those spikes every time. The % duration is an important metric in my opinion. I try to make my shorts as entertaining + informative as possible to keep people watching. Captions also help a ton you'd be surprised how many people watch without audio.
As always, your content is great. Every minute of your videos gives us creators valuable information without the fluff of meaningless interactions or unrelated story bits. I've learned so much from you over the last few months, from story-telling to drone-flying and now the shorts. Thank you!
Hey Jeven!! Thanks for this video! I've watched your other and now I'm on it too for almost a month now producing shorts almost everyday and these are the graphs I see also. I agree with all the points you mentioned, one thing only is about the captions. I think the one word captions are really difficult for someone who's not a native English speaker. I understand your way of speaking perfectly, but I found myself watching some other creators with more difficult accents and those captions were the same as nothing, impossible to keep up. I'd say 3 words is really the sweetspot :D Thanks again, great video, and hike!
Very good video and points. Hit the nail on the head with the guys telling what to do to get shorts views, yet they don't have any short views... (Same actually apply with their long type content)...
My shorts were rocking it! 1000-10k+ Feb 28 hit and now like 50-100. Contacted RUclips and get “viewers choosing not to watch” but overnight? Like literally overnight? I keep posting and trying, like it’s a bubble that will pop. But anyone else experiencing this??? It’s so extremely defeating!!! Anyone have ideas how to fix???
Yes. Even when I get 61%+ swipe through rate I only get views in the first 45-ish minutes and nothing ever again. Also the last week or two I’m literally getting 0-5 views. Like what?
I'm back to RUclips after almost 8 years. Been serious for 2 weeks now and just realized how defeating it can feel getting 50-100 views on a video when mrBeast is getting 270M! I then Created a playlist and put all my dubious videos inside and each day's end, I've checked the analytics of the playlist, shocked that 1000+ people are visiting my channel per day! and they have watched my not so good content for more than 40 hours! and 10 subscribers! It’s so extremely defeating if you look at each video individually, but if you look at the channel as a whole, that's motivating enough to continue posting. Use the analytics tool to learn what's working, its gold.
I have been really enjoying creating shorts as a way to give single point stories and it keeps the dopamine kick coming rather than making all long form content.
There are definitely impressions for shorts, although RUclips wants to pretend there are not. Your home page, your channel page, anywhere except the shorts feed. And since you can't make a thumbnail for it, it's crippled in those locations. I feel that hampers a short in the short feed as well because they'll swipe right past it without giving it 1 second if that first frame isn't appealing.
Yep, I’ve got a short about a guitar with artwork on the back, and the thumbnail for it shows half of the artwork. I’m not sure if that’s good or not, because it half spoils the point of the short. Edit: I should add that the only views it now gets come from people searching for that guitar and from my channel page
So I did this for 30 days starting March 6th. And here's what happened: Views are up, subs doubled, and even some of my older videos are coming to life. I did not experience what you did and I believe it is because of 2 things. 1. I don't entirely understand my audience and I need to continue to build it based on my current theme (photo, adventure, vlog, behind the scenes) (my channel started out with no theme but a few videos took off on how to cook and how to game, 30-40% of my audience is from a different time that doesn't match the current theme). 2. You referred to it as a spark, I have described it myself as jump starting an engine. Not understanding my audience and not having a clearly defined game plan has slowed it down. I now put voiceover on everything and use words in everything I publish and at first I wasn't. I would not call this a failure as my numbers are up and I have learned a lot. I have not tested it but I remember hearing about playlists and binging getting some attention recently. I feel like your content is bingeable. Mine not so much. I am trying to produce shorts that can all fit in the same themed playlist and feel like even if playlists aren't getting any additional focus, just have content that can be binged, like your consistently themed shorts. Now I have all of this data, including the times my audience is online and most likely to view my content (which does not even open up unless you have enough views) which I base my schedule time around and I can now create more content or dig through existing stuff in storage for content that can be themed or fit well with my existing theme. While this also wasn't a huge success, I gained valuable information about my audience and a target to build upon. I continued posting daily and so far I have stuff scheduled until 4/15 but I am in need of more content and going to be heading back out soon to get more and hopefully one of those jump starts will get this engine purring. Thanks for the great info. I needed some validation because doing this for free while trying to run a more than full time business can be challenging and at times a total let down. But ultimately when I reflect on my success, I have nobody to blame but myself.
Oddly enough, my top 5 shorts ( average 8.1 million views), there is no voice-over/dialogue or text on screen. I think this has to do with international/non-English speaking/reading audiences. Great video and tips.
Awesome! The way I'm making shorts isn't the only way for sure. I've seen other creators have a ton of success doing something completely different. This is just whats worked for me so far
I recently began uploading to RUclips and was kinda puzzled for days as to why all my shorts seemed to flatline even the ones that were not too bad, after watching your video, I can now understand the reasons behind it so I wanna say thank you :)
It's as simple as "new is interesting." When we upload anything new, it gets dumped anywhere it might be received well. This causes a spike in views. Then that same content reverts back to the core audience, who most of the time have already viewed it, "flatlines" or drops in view count happen. I've noticed this with all of my content, especially shorts, they exploded with the first few to 24 hours, then nothing.
Thank you for sharing the link to this video. Your colour bold text on the screen is definitely more attractive than youtube subtitle of black & white wording. And i like what u said: "there are lots of info out there but it doesn't mean it is good info"... Thanks God i found your channel.
This is just fantastic brother, I have been watching all your stuff for about 4 months now, I'm running out of time and money, to try to do what I love and that is film With my flying cameras. But I think with your videos and your techniques people like me have a fighting chance They do what they love. Can't tell you Enough how much I appreciate this
Most of my Shorts are consistently getting at least 1k views and bringing in new subscribers. This is a great way for a small channel like mine (500+ followers) to grow. HOWEVER, it doesn't seem like ANY of those new followers crossover to watching my long form vids which are in the same niche. Any suggestions? Thanks a lot! And as a long time follower of this channel it's really interesting to see how your adventure channel grows using the techniques you've been teaching all along!
Thank you this was actually really helpful. My question is, how do I properly resize my long form content into shorts? I've been posting for close to 30 days now and I think this issue is whats causing my shorts not to go viral....
I watched your video on "I made 30 Shorts in 30 Days" and it encouraged me to have a go at shorts I made a few shorts once they came out a couple of years and I was like Meh, not for me and ignored it for the most part. Then the last few months, a few channels appeared from nowhere with huge numbers/subs. It took 3-4 years to get to where I am 60k subs. And some of these guys have caught me in what feels like overnight.... I had been posting on TikTok and instagram, so had a small library of short videos to get me going Since then I have been posting a short every day after watching your video and I think it has adversely affected my longer new videos, I have put a couple out that should have done well, but have been very flat. But the shorts are gaining momentum and well, the more you do something the better you get and my shorts are getting better too. I will have to try and work more stories into my shorts, though I'm more of a how-to kind of channel. Thanks for your videos, they have been very helpful :)
I have a few shorts that keep getting traffic from search... Others just do that spike, flatline, spike flatline, maybe gradual increase. The ones that hit in seach have a continuous increase in views (I have one that has been gradually getting views for over a year). I still put a brief description and tags and I make sure I have a frame within the short that makes a decent thumbnail so that in search and on the homepage, they still grab the attention of viewers. The shorts shelf isn't the only place you get views from this format.
Thank you for sharing ❤ I noticed the shorter my shorts are the more views I get also the percentage viewed is better. I’d like to also improve my longer form content
I liked this video early into it after I liked something you taught me here. I was so into the video that I went to like the video again after you started going into the tips. Thanks for this!
I was inspired by your video of 30 shorts in 30 days. My video going public in 2 weeks talks about you, your channels, and your experience. It introduces my own experiment that I am doing in August of 30 shorts in 30 days. Appreciate the inspiration!
I started my 30 day challenge, thanks for the motivation! I'm new to shorts though, are we able to change the thumbnail? I don't seem to be able to, and YT is choosing all the worst images lol
Great info, great locale! ;-) Thanks a bunch! T PS. We love your LUTS allot!!! PSS. I feel a million subs are just days away! Well done! Lots of hard work for sure!
Mine have a mix depending on how “tablet time” they get. Our channel posts both but we clearly have this situation with our shorts. However our shorts are engaged with much more than our long form! We wish everyone an awesome journey! 🎉
My Shorts have been on fire since day one and haven’t made any long form content. I’m currently working on a video but I’m in no rush because I don’t to rush it without ensuring its a quality video.
I made a jeven dovey style short on my channel. my first ever youtube short. Thanks for all the lessons you continue to give us! makes getting into content creation so much easier and more fun
I’ve never been a fan of shorts. But my son want me to help him create his own shorts. But he’s only seven. I have thought that maybe we could make a couple out of our few live streams to see if that will push more views back to those streams.
Shorts are the most thankless work that RUclips ever came up with. You get a few hundred views and then it "flatlines". It took three or more hours to make that short and then you get $ 0.003 as a reward. Subscribers who subscribe for shorts usually don't watch your long content. Why am I still doing shorts? They said it was "a golden opportunity". I think it's garbage.
Hi Jeven! I have learned a great deal from your content from DJI to shorts. Is there an easy way to synchronize the audio with the text? I’m fumbling around with a channel about travel to Israel and want to do a channel about my real estate market here in central Florida that won’t be boring. More about the local restyle and fun things to do.
i had several shorts running wild and i killed them, twice by unlisting them on purpose, i get the urge sometimes to upload more shorts to get more subs, but i dont want empty views and subs. I wish youtube would separate views from shorts and long form. I may upload shorts when i see something great that only takes a min to make
What I find strange is I have shorts that get 3k+ views and then post an extremely similar video snd it gets like 8 views. I have no idea why this happens or why YT doesn't push these type if videos?
Seems YT has an odd metric. My best short got 8k in six days then 50 total in the next 50 days... Not one of my shorts has had a double bump and five out of 29 total have more than 2k views. I'm a 3D printer channel, but the explanation shorts never get views, just the running trains or a printed object being used.
Riddle me this. Why do my dumbest, most unthoughtful stupid short videos get the most views. While a well thought out and edited short gets little to none 😂
@@JevenDovey I think I'm hitting wrong target of viewers so I'm doing something that's video wrong for sure I'm gonna experiment more with language and location maby with category Cose I make polish memes in english For polish People that speak english and are into american meme and internet culture I started to get some shorts that maintain important stats level high and get views constantly for over a week I might try to do some narration to "make my personality brand" and implement your suggestions
I have tested shorts for my channel and my last 3 were under 12 seconds and they some views but ended up flatlining, I'm wondering if the algorithm is trying to figure out my audience
with my experience longer shorts have had less views... but i will say my editing isnt the best to retain viewership im still learning as i go but thank you for the advice also great video!!@@JevenDovey
i got 42 short subscribers my first 10 videos had pushed by the algorithm and this flat line pattern happened but after algorithm doesn't pick my new videos 0 views. Not even pushing into feed.
Hi Jeven, Every short I post gets between 0-1 view for every short I post, I tried Using tags, no tags and I believe the quality is decent, Any info would help, thanks.
Hi Jeven, I made my first Shorts! It amazed me when I got 1K views in a few hrs. I added closed Caption. Have you? Or are you only adding text? I have an unusual disability & text makes me dizzy as it goes sooo fast across the screen. I'm trying to raise awareness to other creators to give viewers a choice by clicking closed Caption if they have a disability, etc. I really enjoy ur content & presentation.
@JevenDovey did you or are you posting the shorts at the same time every day? Or does your posting schedule change based on your analytics of when most of your viewers are on the platform? Thanks for the tips and info! 🔥👊🏻
@@JevenDovey thanks for the reply! I already got my 30 short ideas, all related to my long form content, and I will be spending the day tomorrow editing and scheduling them. I realized that I’m having issues when it comes to my channel being noticed or promoted, so my goal is just to increase my channel’s visibility 👍🏻
Hey, this is the channel I am working on right now but I cannot monetize it because RUclips says "reused content" even though I edit it myself.. Is there any way to fix this?
Videos with good AVD that die at a few views die because they have bad "How many chose to view". Video got recomended but if let's say only 20% choose to view and the rest 80% Swipped away then the "algorith" doesn't recommend your videos anymore and your short dies
Thanks for this information , I am writing to address a concerning issue I've noticed with my RUclips channel. Initially experiencing positive growth in views and engagement, there has been an unexpected decline in video views over the past week. Despite efforts to maintain content quality, I am seeking your guidance to identify potential reasons behind this drop and actionable solutions to rectify the situation. I'm dedicated to delivering valuable content and maintaining open communication with my audience. Any insights into changes in algorithms, trends, or guidelines would be greatly appreciated as I work to restore momentum to my channel.
You can click on the three dots in the upper right corner of the strip of shorts and hit not interested until they’re all gone. You need to do this a few times when that strip pops up. I can’t remember the last time I got those

one q if you are doing asmr or some sort of how to cook or prepare videos how to use text ??
Finally some good solid advice from a genuine person who’s sharing his experience with shorts. I think there’s a lot of small channels out there that are confused as to why their shorts don’t work like their long form videos, myself included. Thanks Jeven for sharing. It’s cleared a few things up for me. 👍
Hey Javen, I’ve been struggling with the flatline too. I appreciate your video and I wanted to know you’re a huge motivator to me, so keep pushing and keep creating man! ❤
Every time you two changes the algorithm, my views go down and they lose my audience. I’m unable to get my views passed 800 while I’m rocking and rolling. Now I’m flatlining at 26 views lately.
You nailed it, Jeven. I'll upload one or two shorts a week and it'll get those spikes every time. The % duration is an important metric in my opinion. I try to make my shorts as entertaining + informative as possible to keep people watching. Captions also help a ton you'd be surprised how many people watch without audio.
As always, your content is great. Every minute of your videos gives us creators valuable information without the fluff of meaningless interactions or unrelated story bits. I've learned so much from you over the last few months, from story-telling to drone-flying and now the shorts. Thank you!
Hey Jeven!! Thanks for this video! I've watched your other and now I'm on it too for almost a month now producing shorts almost everyday and these are the graphs I see also. I agree with all the points you mentioned, one thing only is about the captions. I think the one word captions are really difficult for someone who's not a native English speaker. I understand your way of speaking perfectly, but I found myself watching some other creators with more difficult accents and those captions were the same as nothing, impossible to keep up. I'd say 3 words is really the sweetspot :D Thanks again, great video, and hike!
Good to know. Thanks for the feedback

7~10 second shorts is the sweet spot.
Yes. Even when I get 61%+ swipe through rate I only get views in the first 45-ish minutes and nothing ever again. Also the last week or two I’m literally getting 0-5 views. Like what?

Great point about the non speaking audience. You do have great content. That helps for sure 😊
I love the format of this video! love the wide angle shots.
99% of my shorts getting around 1.3k views and stopped there. uploaded over 130 so far..frustrating..
I recently began uploading to RUclips and was kinda puzzled for days as to why all my shorts seemed to flatline even the ones that were not too bad, after watching your video, I can now understand the reasons behind it so I wanna say thank you :)

Working on 30 days of shorts and I just am getting more confused about what works. Some getting 1.5k and some getting 85 and no ryme or reason
exactly the same here!
Same here! I don’t post them daily though. So I’m starting on 30 shorts in 30 days fresh.
Same here been posting for about 10 days daily now

One of the best videos I've watched on this subject. Lots of food for thought here. Thanks Jeven👍👊
I still think, shorts are some misunderstanding of modern life, to say it in a gentlest way possible.

Glad you like them! I’ll be adding some more soon
You most certainly have "The Gift!" ;-) Much respect! T@@JevenDovey
If you're watching this then you will make it just believe
I found out, my kids are consuming 99,9% more shorts than a usual videos, while I am busy creating the second ones 😅
haha😅 facts

I’ve never been a fan of shorts. But my son want me to help him create his own shorts. But he’s only seven. I have thought that maybe we could make a couple out of our few live streams to see if that will push more views back to those streams.
Mind opening, thank you.
This might work. Thanks for the tip.
Great video man💯
I think youtube tests them and sees how they perform, then puts it on a que to to show it a later time.
Thank you! Good stuff here
Yeah I was super confused when I got a random jump lol and then got sad when it stopped
Shorts are the most thankless work that RUclips ever came up with. You get a few hundred views and then it "flatlines".

Keep going

i had several shorts running wild and i killed them, twice by unlisting them on purpose, i get the urge sometimes to upload more shorts to get more subs, but i dont want empty views and subs. I wish youtube would separate views from shorts and long form. I may upload shorts when i see something great that only takes a min to make
Thank you so much!
I try some of your tips but it's different for gaming channel..
Great video thank you!
What I find strange is I have shorts that get 3k+ views and then post an extremely similar video snd it gets like 8 views. I have no idea why this happens or why YT doesn't push these type if videos?
I wanted to check my alarm on my phone.. in the same second I got this pop up. Clicked on it by accident and stayed 😅
Special video, well done.
Seems YT has an odd metric.
My best short got 8k in six days then 50 total in the next 50 days...
Not one of my shorts has had a double bump and five out of 29 total have more than 2k views.
I'm a 3D printer channel, but the explanation shorts never get views, just the running trains or a printed object being used.
Riddle me this. Why do my dumbest, most unthoughtful stupid short videos get the most views. While a well thought out and edited short gets little to none 😂
cause people are watching them on the toilet
@@JevenDovey Haha probably
Thank you super informative. I will try changing it up a little and tell a better story. Or have a story 😂
what category should I use if I make memes? gaming? funny?
Doesn’t matter
@@JevenDovey I think I'm hitting wrong target of viewers so I'm doing something that's video wrong for sure
I'm gonna experiment more with language and location maby with category
Cose I make polish memes in english
For polish People that speak english and are into american meme and internet culture
I started to get some shorts that maintain important stats level high and get views constantly for over a week
I might try to do some narration to "make my personality brand" and implement your suggestions
I just started my shorts about two weeks ago 😩🙏🏽 wish me luck 🤞🏾
👍
I have tested shorts for my channel and my last 3 were under 12 seconds and they some views but ended up flatlining, I'm wondering if the algorithm is trying to figure out my audience
Try some longer shorts.
with my experience longer shorts have had less views... but i will say my editing isnt the best to retain viewership im still learning as i go but thank you for the advice also great video!!@@JevenDovey
They dont know what to do with the algorithm anymore.
I put my first short up today and in the first 12 hours or so it got 3K views and the last few hours, not much is happening.
i got 42 short subscribers my first 10 videos had pushed by the algorithm and this flat line pattern happened but after algorithm doesn't pick my new videos 0 views. Not even pushing into feed.
Great info man thanks for posting this👊
Hi Jeven, Every short I post gets between 0-1 view for every short I post, I tried Using tags, no tags and I believe the quality is decent, Any info would help, thanks.
Hope my view will help out as well 😆
Hi Jeven, I made my first Shorts! It amazed me when I got 1K views in a few hrs. I added closed Caption. Have you? Or are you only adding text? I have an unusual disability & text makes me dizzy as it goes sooo fast across the screen. I'm trying to raise awareness to other creators to give viewers a choice by clicking closed Caption if they have a disability, etc. I really enjoy ur content & presentation.
@JevenDovey did you or are you posting the shorts at the same time every day? Or does your posting schedule change based on your analytics of when most of your viewers are on the platform?
Thanks for the tips and info! 🔥👊🏻
I just post whenever. Changing the time hasn’t changed the results from what I can see
@@JevenDovey thanks for the reply! I already got my 30 short ideas, all related to my long form content, and I will be spending the day tomorrow editing and scheduling them. I realized that I’m having issues when it comes to my channel being noticed or promoted, so my goal is just to increase my channel’s visibility 👍🏻
i JUST started a new channel about animals and my adventures..... yiur content is great! thank you!!!!

Hey, this is the channel I am working on right now but I cannot monetize it because RUclips says "reused content" even though I edit it myself.. Is there any way to fix this?
the tag of that video you mention in the end is missing
It’s up
Thank yoj for this
You also forgot to mention your secret weapon…
Mentioning your jeep.
😂
Voiceover is disabled for me?
very good have a nice
day ^^
Interesting 🤔
Videos with good AVD that die at a few views die because they have bad "How many chose to view". Video got recomended but if let's say only 20% choose to view and the rest 80% Swipped away then the "algorith" doesn't recommend your videos anymore and your short dies
I see shorts impressions now.
Bro it’s so annoying I get like 1,000 * views with a 90%+ viewer watch rate and A LOT OF LIKES and it still flatlines in 30 minutes
Must we post 30 million shorts to be considered by youtube?
It happens to me
Thanks for this information , I am writing to address a concerning issue I've noticed with my RUclips channel. Initially experiencing positive growth in views and engagement, there has been an unexpected decline in video views over the past week. Despite efforts to maintain content quality, I am seeking your guidance to identify potential reasons behind this drop and actionable solutions to rectify the situation. I'm dedicated to delivering valuable content and maintaining open communication with my audience. Any insights into changes in algorithms, trends, or guidelines would be greatly appreciated as I work to restore momentum to my channel.
I never watch shorts, I just flick past them. RUclips should have never bothered.
Hmmh
love
Because Shorts suk and I refuse to even watch them. I wish there was a way to filter them out.... Or is there?
They’re here to stay
You can click on the three dots in the upper right corner of the strip of shorts and hit not interested until they’re all gone. You need to do this a few times when that strip pops up. I can’t remember the last time I got those
@@KellDogg1965 aaaah... EXCELLENT. Thanks for the tip.
"RUclipsrs telling you how to do shorts with low view count" FACTS
My shorts get millions of views 🤷🏻♂️
@@JevenDovey I know, that comment wasn't a shot at you, just quoting something I noticed.
5s Doubt/intrigued/ curious
Last 5s ask to comment
Dude says the same thing for the first 5 minutes of this video
