Hello. Happy December to you. Thanks for checking out my videos and/or following me over the years. I need your help please. I need help promoting my videos in order to get views. I am struggling with YouTube right now.
The algorithm has changed and my videos don't get recommended or circulate like they used to. I am doing all the new things that I can do to change this. But... It really is discouraging and challenges what I am doing/offering. It shouldn't impact my worth, but it does. When in the past I got, let's say, 10K views in a short period of time on one video, but now, I only get a couple hundred, it really makes me question what I am doing.
I understand YouTube is changing and/or has changed. I understand that I need to adapt my style of content to deliver more value or more linear "how to steps." My videos in the past don't always offer hand holding, step by step instruction, but more offer an invitation to enter the contemplation of the topic.
All of this is really impacting how I feel about offering free content on YouTube. It's just not worth it making videos if they no longer get distributed or seen by others. I have been researching this for 5 months and attempting to turn around this great dive in relevance and viewership. It really feels like something is working against me despite my sincerity and eagerness to share new videos.
I rarely "rant" or share anything personal like this. It usually invites more negative commentary and judgment from others than any positivity. So, I learned years ago to just smile and keep it to myself. But... I am reaching out to say if you are able to help, please do. Please share my videos with others and/or on social media sites so that more people click and watch. I will continue to do my part and provide content that evolves and delivers. Thanks for your help.
Here is my latest video. After 2 hours it has 57 views. Ugh! Horrible distribution. Just a year ago, I would post a new video and get 5K views in 2 hours. Again, makes me question what I am doing.
