      Exactly! I was thinking about the same thing few months ago. Why an algolithm choose random audience to me and then ignoring my videos, marked as 💩, because they don't watch/listen my creations more than 10 secs. I bet it recommend to ppls who doesn't like trance or relaxing musics and motion graphic contents. 100 SEO score and right tags doesn't matter, it has no effect. Still fighting with 30-100 average views after 14 years, also tried with new channel few years ago, same result. I really tired of it. I bet the algorithm is similar on Instagram, but there i could check this bad algroithm recommendations. There is a section, something like "Show contents from creators like me". As graphic and sound designer when i enter that menu, the algoritm shows me wedding dress stuffst and fully different contents, there is no any matching to my creations. I reported it, with video proof 6-8 months ago but no response.

    It's unfortunate that great content sometimes never gets shared, discovered or seen because the "algorithm" didn't know who, how, or when to show it. It's disconcerting for creative people who might do something out of the box that people could probably really enjoy, if only they had a chance to see it, and decide for themselves. The "algorithm" didn't connect them with it. I understand that there are billions of videos to manage, and that all of it cannot be presented to people. At least a FAIR and genuine effort should be made to present all content to the MOST POSSIBLE people, and let them decide whether they like it. I think TH-cam would see a greater return. I constantly have to clear the cookies of my browser because the "algorithm" always presents me with stuff that don't interest me; simply because I watched a similar video. It can be a bit much. "Variety is the spice of life." Embrace variety. I'm sure TH-cam is constantly improving the algorithm. ☮🧡🤗🙏

    • @FuckXiJinping
      @FuckXiJinping ปีที่แล้ว +11

      You only have 158 subs, that’s merely enough for TH-cam to know who to show your videos to and if you cant write a good title, then you are not pulling any views

    • @SereneCalmness
      @SereneCalmness ปีที่แล้ว +35

      ​@@FuckXiJinping Thanks for the response, Eric. According to TH-cam, in the exact video we are commenting on, the size of your audience is not a big determining factor on how the statistical equations connect your video to viewers -- If it were, you would never grow past 36 subs. It's about a lot of factors. One of the major ones, is viewers' preferences. Not just your audience, but the billions of views on the platform. The data they collect about your habits on the site helps their algorithms determine what is shown to you. Which is limiting because if prevents you from discovering things that you may not even yet know you might find useful or beneficial. We expend our minds by being exposed to new things. The point I was making is that an effort should be made to present all videos that are not violating any guidelines to as many people as possible. The first 300 may not like it, and the next 3,000,000 might. If it's never shown because it didn't fit a statistical profile, well... 😊Can you imagine, if the "algorithm" did the same for this comment because it calculated that not too many people would align with it. We would have never had a chance to do this exchange from which I learned so much about your point of view. 🙂 Variety!
      A creator would feel really free to create, rather than feeling that their work may never be seen because some "code" didn't think people would like it. 😁 Take care!

      @glowingfish ปีที่แล้ว +10

      I think that is a fair criticism, but also, I don't know what the alternative would be. For every TH-cam creator who is doing something new and interesting that might be interesting if only people could get ahold of it, there are dozens of creators who are making low-effort vanity projects... (myself included, on some of my videos). If TH-cam promoted everything, users would get flooded with dozens or hundreds of meaningless scribbles. I have some videos about accessible subjects that people are interested in (often visits to scenic or interesting places), and then I have many videos that are basically absurd art projects. I totally understand why the first group generates more interest.

      It seems to me the youtube "algorithm" is not very intelligent. The more nonsensicle a video is the more views it gets.
      There's no quality influence because when nobody sees the video how would quality make any difference?

    "The number of people subscribed to your channel doesn't represent the number of viewers choosing to watch your videos." So why do you have to have a certain number of subscribers to be monetized? You could have millions of views and not be eligible.

      Igen, de... Pusztán azt tenni amit szeretsz, itt kevés. Nagyon figyelembe kell venni a vélelmezett nézők elvárásait, igényeit, érdeklődését. Ez viszont csak idővel derül, derülhet ki. Mert aki tartalmat oszt itt meg, azt azért teszi, mert vélelmezi, hogy másokat is érdekel majd amit csinál. Nem kell mindjárt a nagy "sikerre" számítani. Ha a tartalom jó, igényes és igaz, akkor a dolog működni fog. Nem azonnal persze. De azt gondolom ezzel nem sok újat mondtam 🙂.

  • @krazy4e2
    @krazy4e2 ปีที่แล้ว +33

    I think the best description I ever heard about "the algorithm" is you have to think of it being steered by the viewer. When we post the videos get PULLED from the other side by viewers and not necessarily pushed by anything we do. My tip as a small creator is make good content and cross platform promote. It takes time for the right people to find your content. But when they do find it, if you're creating good content, they will go back and watch everything you've posted. I say this as someone who often goes back and watches my favorite youtubers videos back MULTIPLE times. Good content is timeless. So don't stress too much about the numbers. It genuinely won't change a thing.

  • @perfectsolobj
    @perfectsolobj ปีที่แล้ว +34

    I want to believe that tags help videos to be more discoverable when a search query is submitted. TH-cam may more likely give results based on video tags than the content of the video. However, I believe tags isn't necessary in determining what videos TH-cam suggests to viewers when they visit.

With each new post, I optimize through title, thumbnail, description, and tags. Eventually, if I remain consistent, I know I'll be able to reach a larger audience. I wish the best of luck to all the hard-working and dedicated creators here - don't ever stop doing what you love! The greatest reward is in the creation.

    I don't believe the time between uploads doesn't matter. If you take a month longer than usual to upload, users will most likely watch other users and then their feed will fill up with other recommendations other than yours. I found this happening on a few channels.

    Don’t forget if a creator makes a documentary that is almost an hour and a half long with about 8 seconds of a clip that has profanity, you will age restrict that, demonetize, and kill the view counts of an amazing video, reducing the view count and the money the creator should make off the content that keeps us coming to your platform. Your appeal process also seems to need an overhaul, have seen many creators complain about these issues.

    Definitely agree that we should spend less time trying to keep a daily upload schedule and more time ensuring we are making videos at the quality they deserve to be.

      So true. I guess it peaks at a point when people move on to other issues or another channel posted a 'more valuable' version and the algorithm drops one and recommends the other more. I don't bother much. If I made one hit, I can always make another. Nothing lasts forever they say, right?

      TH-cam claims it is about protecting creators. Yet such creators always 'had' the option to hide their dislikes... so something 'else' is the true reason why TH-cam removed viewers' ability to get an accurate representation of video popularity.

    Honestly, I feel like my videos often do better when I DO focus on the algorithm. When I simply focus on quality, I often get a higher percentage of likes and sometimes better watch time percentage, but the video doesn't necessarily get shared as much by TH-cam. So I think the advice about focusing on quality is great for a mid-size or larger channel, but for a new channel, my experience is that you do really need to focus on the algorithm.

    You say "creators ask, what type of videos does the algorithm like best?". This is later followed up by "focus on knowing your audience and what they like". My question is, what if I want to change my content to a different subject? Am I at the mercy of my audience not wanting me to change, thus forcing me to keep producing the same content? Would I have to create a new youtube channel to break free, and what if I don't want to create a new youtube channel? What is your solution for this problem?

      It's better to stay around 5 tags per vid maybe 8, but after 12 it seems you basically over load the algorithm and it won't recognize any of your tags. I highly suggest only using roughly 5 ro 8 max. I don't know anything about it really but everywhere I read I see this more and more.

    Also you have actual humans that teach the algorithm. The raters rate us on reputation and quality. The reputation score gives famous poeple and megachannels a leg up. I've looked into this extensively. They rate the quality of each video and also the entire channel. They want to know who runs the channel, so if you don't put your name in the about section then that isn't good. Search and discovery is greatly impacted by how the human raters rate us. Maybe you should make a video about that.

  • @TawaClip
    @TawaClip ปีที่แล้ว +8

    One of the biggest challenges faced by new content creators is the increasing competition. With the continuously growing amount of content, it becomes more difficult to build a loyal fan base. Furthermore, the TH-cam algorithm tends to prioritize content from popular creators with large followings, making it difficult for new creators to be discovered by potential users.
    Moreover, many new content creators also struggle with promoting their content. Most of them do not have a big budget for effective promotion, which makes it difficult to reach a wider audience. This creates a vicious cycle in which new creators feel trapped, as they are unable to attract enough attention to gain significant views and income, which in turn limits their ability to produce higher quality content in the future.
    As a leading platform, I hope that TH-cam can provide more support for new content creators to grow and thrive on the platform. This can be done by optimizing the algorithm, providing greater resources for promotion and fan base development, and offering more opportunities for creators to stand out and be discovered. In this way, I am confident that we can see more creative and diverse content on this platform.

    This was very informative. A good addition to Analytics would be showing (aside from the similar videos watched and general demographics) things like topics and keywords the audience is commonly interested (especially long tail searches) or similar tools to get to know what our followers really like. Maybe an "audience survey" features (with multiple questions) would allow us to know our audience better. Because yes, you can gauge the audience with general analytics and maybe comments, but the algorithm who knows each audience member really well could find much deeper commonalities in the audience that may inform our topic selection.
