First video got 91 views & 7 subs but now my videos get almost no views what am I doing wrong?

Hey everyone I recently started a YouTube channel focused on worldwide documentary style content. When I uploaded my first video it got around 91 views and 7 subscribers which motivated me a lot But after that my next videos are barely getting any views and I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong.

I create content on global topics and try to keep it informative and engaging. I’ve attached screenshots of my channel and performance for reference.

I’d really appreciate honest feedback:

  • Am I making a mistake with my niche or topics?
  • Could my thumbnails or titles be the issue?
  • Is this normal for new channels?

Any tips or advice would mean a lot. Thanks!

New Warhammer focused channel

Hey there, I’ve created a new Warhammer channel focused on gaming and independent videos. I’d like any feedback or constructive criticism about it about the titles, thumbnails and just the general look of the channel.

I know it’ll be slow at first but I’m hoping that when new Warhammer games come out, the channel will pick up as people will be searching for that type of content.

YouTube only showing revenue for YouTube Premium

I need advice guys.

I monetized my YouTube channel on April 2 (around 10am). I was expecting revenue data to show today (April 4). I realized the update was done around 5am, but it only shows YouTube premium revenue. There is no data for Watch page ads. I have checked my videos with multiple devices, and can confirm that ads are playing on all of them. The dollar sign is also displayed across all videos.

Is this normal? Had about 10,000 views on April 2.

Need brutal feedback on my Thumbnails & Titles (Dark/Mystery Faceless Channel)

Need brutal feedback on my Thumbnails & Titles (Dark/Mystery Faceless Channel)

Hey everyone!

I recently started a new faceless channel called "Dark Inside". The concept is about what REALLY happens in massive places (Cruise ships, airports, hospitals, train stations) at 3 AM when everyone is asleep, focusing on the dark, liminal space vibe.

I've uploaded 4 videos so far, but I'm getting almost 0 impressions. I know it's a brand new channel and I need to be patient, but I want to make sure I'm on the right track.

Could you give me some brutal, honest feedback on my titles and thumbnails? Are they too dark? Is the curiosity gap strong enough for the US audience?

Any advice on how to improve the CTR or packaging of the videos would be hugely appreciated! Here is my channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTANZcZ21JIgjy-OJWDBhIA

The ai stuff

so ive been seeing more and more ai channels pop up and have a genuine curiosity as to the monetization side of things,are they making money,how much are they making and is the stuff regarding shadow ban demonetization true and if yes then how can one avoid it

And lastly im aware that starting a YT channel is never is easy but comparatively is it easier for a channel in this niche to break out right now?

Thanks everyone

Does anyone experience A decrease in their youtube thumbnail?

After I upload my thumbnail to my YT channel, it's quality becomes bad significantly..

It's fine in other platforms but it seems bad when I upload it

I tried changing its resolution, it's size, the softwares I use, and even the extentions..

It doesn't work at all..

It always ends up looking trash...

Is this a problem on youtube's side?

Any Trusted Recommendations for Buying YouTube Views?

Hey everyone,

I’ve been working on my YouTube channel for a while now, focusing on improving video quality, thumbnails, and overall content strategy. Some of my videos get impressions and decent watch time, but the YouTube views don’t always grow consistently, especially in the early stages after publishing.

From what I’ve noticed, initial view count seems to play a role in how a video performs. Videos with higher views tend to look more active and attract more clicks, engagement, and even organic reach. That’s what got me thinking about buying YouTube views as part of a broader growth approach.

I’m not looking for anything spammy or low-quality. I’m specifically interested in real YouTube views, gradual delivery, high-retention traffic, and something that blends naturally with organic engagement. There are a lot of YouTube promotion services claiming to offer instant views and “safe” growth, but it’s hard to tell which ones actually deliver consistent and reliable results.

If you’ve bought YouTube views before, I’d really appreciate your input. Which platforms or services worked for you? Did the views look natural and stay over time? And did it help with video visibility or overall channel growth?

Looking for honest recommendations and real experiences before I try anything. Thanks!

I've created a new ai conetnt shorts channel in yt where I do my scripting, make images then into vidoes, edit them by myself and add necessary sounds. My initial 20 shorts got decent views, few of them around 5k-10k and rest averaging around 1.5k views. But my last two shorts got below 20 views.

what could be the issue?
