The hot dogs are delicious :D And I`m not sure if it`s everywhere so, but I can choose the amount of mustard, pickles, ...; I only buy the sausage and bread. And of course the meatballs!
I see how well your shorts videos are doing and think I might know what’s happening. Assuming your ctr is still high (50% of channels have between 2-10%) then you should check your average view duration for long form vids that don’t do as well. If it’s below 25%(ideal should be +60%), then it could be because the short form subscribers-which seem to make up a bulk of your audience-are having trouble maintaining their attention spans for the long form content. You probably figured this out yourself already and that’s why you haven’t uploaded shorts in so long. Either way, you can still have a shorts channel, just probably best to have it as a separate channel (you can promote it the community post/feature channels section to give it a good boost right now since you have so many people that watch your shorts) so that the subscriber base is different and so that the algorithm doesn’t get messed up. I’d love to still see shorts every now and then on this channel, but probably not as often for algorithm sake 😅 It will probably take a while for your channel to adjust for now, but I’m wishing the best for you dawg.
@@helixzenith dude thank you for your insight! You're right on a lot of the things you said; Shorts viewers tend to have different viewing habits and behaviors as long-form viewers, so my long-form videos have trouble resonating with them. On top of that, TH-cam actually wont promote your long-form videos to short-form viewers even though theyve watched your channel. Theyll only promote your long form stuff if your shorts viewer has interacted with your long form stuff before (youtube is working on ways to prevent this in the future, however). My CTR isn't too bad and my AVP tends to hover around 50%, so what I've narrowed it down to is understanding my long form audience better and choosing topics that resonate with them. A lot of my data shows that my viewers are between the ages of 16-24 and are mostly male, so I'm trying to plan better ideas that would resonate with that demographic (hence why my videos about vaping and the BK meme did so well haha). TH-cam can be a headache when it comes to this stuff, but I LOVE it when it works out! Just takes time and constant learning. Love seeing fellow youtube geeks in my comments haha :D
@@helixzenith oh and also, I'll still continue to post shorts, but Im putting my main focus on my long stuff. YTs new feature that lets you link long form videos seemlessly on short form is super powerful, and so Shorts are def apart of my overall strategy moving forward!!!
@@bcproductionvideos dude that’s awesome. I’m glad you have it figured out and that you can continue to make both forms of content on your main channel. If I ever do think up of a video topic that might resonate with ur main demographic, I’ll be sure to write a comment. All the ones I can think of right now are either old(relatively speaking) or have lots of videos already covering the topic.
I'm not going to lie... their food court is UNREAL. What's your fav food at IKEA? Let me know below! 😄👇
I like the ice cream dispensers in the European versions.
I never knew those were a thing! How cool.

When I was a kid, the IKEA we went to had a kids play place and even the rest of the store was magical to me
I remember those play places too! haha
Your videos deserve more views, they’re so good! Shame the last few have gone down, they were all great
Thank you so much! Yeah it’s a bummer… been rethinking my content strategy moving forward and I’m excited about it! I’ll be back up there soon 😉

A friend ones said to me "You don`t go to an Ikea for one thing" and know I understand why, thanks :D
It's hard not to buy multiple things haha, especially as a fresh college grad looking to get a new apartment. Glad you learned something :D
@@bcproductionvideos Yes, and we all should start writing the things we need and only buy those 😅
How did this feed automatically get into my subscriptions?
Not sure!
Ikea or SCP-3008
