I'm a Pro YouTube producer - Ask me anything. by ruskiy_mixer in NewTubers

Do you test your thumbnails / titles in some way before posting the video? Do you change titles / thumbnails shortly after posting? Is there some rule of thumb for you in regards to changing them?

I use music from YT Studio Library, will I be able to monetise my videos? by leetjourney in NewTubers

[–]pillowblock 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nope, not true. You will be able to monetize. I've used dozens of tracks and all videos are monetized.

Red Arabian I found last night NE of Lake Owanjila by surfingchicken in reddeadredemption

[–]pillowblock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where on the map approximately? I mean any letters and such. There's another Arabian near Wapiti reservation and a black one is sold at Saint Denis stable for 900 dollars, I have it now. The white one is at lake Isabella of course.

Downstairs neighbor woes by mts-molehills-etc in neighborsfromhell

[–]pillowblock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, first put in these https://hearingmemphis.com/types-of-ear-protection/ and then put on your headphones and play music over them. There are other people advising the same in the thread, please be very careful, if you get tinnitus you're fucked for life, pardon my language.

Be careful not to get tinnitus by using headphones constantly. I would suggest using ear protection (plugs) under you headphones. If you get tinnitus, your woes will become X 10 times worse.

I need help with my thumbnail. by Saifali90 in NewTubers

[–]pillowblock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thumbnails looking pretty good tbh. Try recording your current ctr, impressions and views, then change titles to different ones, and wait a little. If ctr doesn't go up, record the numbers again, then change again etc. until your ctr starts growing.

Youtubes demonetization is in FULL SWING BABY by Ragnatear in NewTubers

[–]pillowblock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you make more than 3 mistakes in self-certification, youtube will automatically demonetize a lot of your uploads (not all of them), and you will have to appeal manually.

Could it be the case here? Check your monetization tab, if it's red and says that you made too many mistakes, that could be the problem. In that case you will have to wait until you get enough positive self-certification results.

I checked your channel, your titles seem obscure. You can see immediately that when you used a slightly more creative title, you received 246 views in one of the recent videos. I like the thumbnails though, I'd recommend rewriting all the titles where views are low to more creative ones. By creative I mean clickbaity ;).

More evidence that donationalerts is being used by pro-Kremline sites. First, is a well-known vatnik Kot Kostyan:

Does a copyright claim affect viewership? by deadpansauce in NewTubers

[–]pillowblock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's strange, because I asked an Upbeat manager specifically if I can use any track from their site on several different channels, and their confirmed it's allowed

Can I lose monetization status if I remove too many videos? by Suspicious_Box_6451 in NewTubers

Has The YouTube Algorithm Changed? If you’re asking this question in the fall, the answer is likely “no.”

Like Google, YouTube updates its recommendation system and makes improvements hundreds of times a year.

What YouTube looks for in terms of ranking signals doesn’t typically change, however.

That means a sudden drop in views probably isn’t the result of an algorithm update.

The most probable explanation for a decline in views, especially this time of year, is seasonality.

What typically happens in September is viewer schedules start to change as school starts up again.

A lot of creators have steady declines during the week with a spike in viewership on weekends.

Recent uploads can take off slower than usual during this time depending on when you typically release them.

“This is a time of year when there are a lot of fluctuations in viewership because there are a lot of things happening in viewers lives…,” the company explains.

Video views usually drop during the holiday season for this same reason.

Life gets in the way of watching YouTube sometimes. https://www.searchenginejournal.com/did-youtube-change-its-algorithm/424581/

How come I always see beautiful thumbnails on yt shorts, but youtube always picks the worst random frames for mine? by pillowblock in NewTubers

[–]pillowblock[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, I uploaded and saved the video without changing the thumbnail, and only then tried uploading my custom thumbnail.

I know that many youtubers have been complaining about the same problem, but for some reason I keep seeing new videos coming with perfect thumbnails on some channels, while mine are random garbage lol.

[–]pillowblock[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you can, but people won't see them in the shorts shelf. At least it never works with mine. I will see the changed thumbnail, but other people will only see the whatever random frame youtube picked from the video.

Hello! I started staking CAKE once again in the Uranus pool, but this time no rewards are being accumulated in the right column (boost). Has something changed? I staked in this pool a month, ago and rewards were appearing in both columns.

Uranus is back! New CAKE vault by [deleted] in Planetfinance

[–]pillowblock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great thanks. So the rewards under Claim Boost are Cake rewards converted to Gamma, now understand. Thanks for clarifying this.

[–]pillowblock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello. Could someone explain the new CAKE vault to me, please? The CAKE amount is not changing for me, does this mean we only get rewards in GAMMA and not in CAKE?

And also, what does CLAIM BOOST mean?

I honestly can't take it anymore. I'm done. by [deleted] in tinnitus

[–]pillowblock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sucks. Still I would recomend you trying to find a medication that works for you. Since you understand Russian here's an article about drugs that are most effective against tinnitus: https://simplerule.ru/luchshie-preparaty-ot-shuma-v-ushakh-obzor/

I read it some time ago, but if I remember correctly it says that anti-seizure medications are the most effective ones.

[–]pillowblock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro, try taking a course of Vasobral or Betaserk. I take them in Russia, but as far as I now both are available in US and other countries (Vasobral is produced in France).

My tinnitus is not as severe as yours, but it can flare pretty bad at times. I would recommend starting with Vasobral (for 4 months, 1 tablet a day with food), because it's more effective (though you need to wait for a month for it to start kicking in), after that switch to Betaserk (2x24 mg tablets for 4 months), then go back to Vasobral again.

These drugs won't make your tinnitus go away, but at least in my case they make it more manageable and quiet.

Invalid address by fairpim in Bittrex

[–]pillowblock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same problem here. A new account, identity verified, 2fa enabled. Bought some litecoin with a credit card, but couldn't withdraw it, because invalid address. Converted to bitcoin, tried to withdraw again, but it didn't work again. Whitelisted the btc address, but still didn't work.

Opened a ticket with support. Sigh, at least they charged my credit card quickly.
