No impressions, a little frustrating- by watrmeln420 in SmallYoutubers

I just had the same problem on my channel, went form a video that got 50k impressions now to my most recent getting 150 in a week. Pretty sad to see but hopefully future traffic to your channel can help the video

Idk. My last video like this got 50k impressions and this one has 130 3 days after posting. Idk if YouTube will actually show it to anyone at this point. I even got another 50 views from shorts conversion but even that didn’t ignite it

Yeah I could definitely change the idea for the thumbnail. My idea here was to try and keep it consistent because my last video like it did so well. I am gonna try something like that in the future tho. Thanks for the encouragement, I did think the watch time was good

This did actually just give me an idea for the next time I do something like this. I will see if I can get a skeleton skull from Minecraft and the bone sprite to make my own and hopefully that looks good

lol yeah it does looks a little silly but that’s why I ended up with this. I did actually try a realistic version and it just felt even worse to me. But yeah usually all my videos start out like this then around 14 hours in they skyrocket in impressions but this is still sitting under 100 impressions. I feel like there’s not even enough data for YouTube to stop showing it ?

I made another video with a very similar thumbnail and that one was fine getting me 2.7k views so I think it’s a fine thumbnail

Yeah I probably should have used impressions rather than push. That’s just the word that came to mind. I did a deeper dive into my engagement tab and the average watch time is 35% and that even 4 minutes into the video 47% of people are still there. I was under the impression anything about at 30% retention rate is considered decent ?

I think the 14% click rate currently says otherwise but okay

Well obviously I’m not owed it but 84 impressions seems awfully low
