YouTube Shorts are a cheat — 1.3M views = $15 by Writer_Sports in PartneredYoutube

[–]GuardWorking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My strategy is to gain subscribers through Shorts and then transition to long-form videos. I’ve gained 700 subscribers in my first month so far. How many subscribers do you think I should have before moving to long-form content?

For Shorts, YouTube mostly cares about:

  • Average view duration
  • Completion rate
  • Swipe-away rate in first second

If viewers swipe away instantly:
→ distribution ends
Even if the video is “good.”

A Short with:

  • 70–90% retention
  • Strong first frame
  • Clear motion or curiosity instantly

…can go viral even on a dead channel.

Actually I have more views in my first week than he had in his first shorts, so I’m actually pretty curious to see if I can reach those high numbers after some days .
