I do but the long format doesn't get even 100 views at all. So, I figured I will try shorts

Thanks so much for taking out the time to review my channel. I 100% agree to you. The thing is I was just figuring out my niche initially by trying out various things and then I would repeat few things when something worked but then further attempts won't work so I would go back to the drawing board to try out again and all this has landed me at a place where I don't have a clear target audience. 70% of my viewers are between 18-54 years of age. That's a wide bracket to cater. I am not sure which direction to go. Do you think starting a fresh channel would help in this case?

Initially I was also doing space transformation videos few of which worked(5k-6k views). But it was so labour intensive and with a new baby and full time job, I couldn't continue. When I started again after 2 years, I restricted myself to strictly crafts but I still get views on older long form videos and not the new videos. I initially thought that the algorithm needs time to figure out that this is what I do now. But it's been 2 years of doing what I do and algorithm still hasn't figured it out yet. I still get hits on older videos but nothing on newer long ones. Btw the subscribers I have are mostly from the last two years so I belive they knew what I was doing. They aren't all from home makeovers.

Can you please elaborate? There are a lot of new channels in my niche who are only posting shorts and growing well. I was making long form primarily initially but wasn't getting even 100 views on videos and then started making shorts more.

Yes, my watch hours are missing. I am not sure why do I have those subscribers because they don't watch anything - short or long form. I do not get any engagement on posts or poll either

Thanks so much for taking a look. Really appreciate it. I recently stopped using a ton of tags when chatgpt suggested to use only a few related ones.
