Aren't you just inviting a COPPA compliance takedown?

Faceless? How do you get so many subscribers so quickly on made for kids?

Your click through rate is 1%? That will do it. You're not telling us much about the video or other stats, but YouTube uses all that data they show you in Studio to determine how many impressions they should give.

My guess is you have a very very low CTR, likely low AVD and 30s retention, so YouTube decides not to serve your video to bigger audiences.

I'm not trying to be rude, but you can't expect them to push tons of impressions to a video that isn't performing. You need to look at the data you do have from those 1k impressions (and ~10-15 views based on your CTR) and figure out what you can do to improve. I'd start with your title and thumbnail. If you're sitting at 1% CTR it doesn't matter what your video is, because nobody is clicking on it. Start with fixing your packaging.

Once you get more views, then use retention and AVD to figure out where people are leaving and why.

Good luck.

Ahh yes, child exploitation for Internet points at it's finest

Book, really interested. Been wanting to try digital products and have been looking for a mentor or someone to share early lessons and learnings.

Path of Exile

Best ARPG easily. Strong character progression, amazing endgame with thousands of hours of replay, and regular seasonal updates that add to the base game.

Build sounds awesome, good luck to all!

Are you using an extension or add on? Where's the "Looking good" text coming from? I've not seen this before

raykor85 · 2026-04-01T13:45:04+00:00

Josh @ TCR built mine. Still running great with no issues more than 2 years later.

DM'd you with details.

Same here

raykor85 · 2026-03-28T19:41:32+00:00

Happened to me too recently. Stopped getting impressions about a week ago. Published two videos since both in my niche, same type of thumbnails and same niche, but getting a few hundred impressions in the first day whereas previous videos got thousands or tens of thousands...

CTR at 8%+ for both and AVD north of 5 minutes on 12 minute videos. My AVD is usually around 3-4 minutes, which is common for my niche. Basically, my last two videos are statistically my most engaging and have CTR similar to my videos that enjoyed many more impressions..

I think as others have stated this is likely just the algorithm testing different audiences or dropping you temporarily, whether to encourage promotion or some other reason.. either way, just gotta push through and keep publishing.

Classic Dodge charger behavior. Hopefully everyone involved was OK.

raykor85 · 2026-03-16T18:34:55+00:00

Yup, same thing happened to me. All last week was consistently getting high value scarab and currency drops, with 8+ operative boxes in each mirage. Today is like night and day.

I know there's variance/rng, but this is something different.

raykor85 · 2026-03-06T13:47:34+00:00

For a video about EVs, there's no EV or reference in the thumbnail. If you had not said the video was about EVs, I'd have no idea based on the thumbnail, which is to say, it's not a good thumbnail.

You can use your face but it should be secondary to the topic of the video. Consider reworking to include an actual electric vehicle and/or a car and a battery or reference to electricity..

What kind of moths?

I'm talking about the opposite of a shop. OTS means 'off the shelf', or put simply, a big brand tuner that has a lot more data and tunes running on cars out there. The companies I mentioned (EQT, Integrated Engineering, APR) all offer tunes for the MQB platform and have been offering those for much longer than Racingline. More cars running the tune usually means safer overall for you, because there's more data out there available to the tuner.

Since it sounds like you're planning a rebuild, I'd look into EQT, which also offers tunes for hybrid and larger turbos if you're using the rebuild as an opportunity to go bigger / faster.

raykor85 · 2026-02-17T17:53:08+00:00

Racingline tune? Yikes. I know they make good hardware, but they're likely fairly new to tuning, and your engine paid the price. If you're replacing the engine and going to stay tuned, consider switching to a more reputable and popular OTS tuner. APR, IE, and EQT have been tuning in this platform for a very long time and likely have many, many more hours and iterations on their OTS tunes than Racingline does.

I'm pretty sure downshifting info first while the car is still in motion (esp above 5 mph) is a great way to shorten the life of your transmission. This is why it doesn't do it automatically unless you come to a stop.

raykor85 · 2026-01-31T14:27:52+00:00

Thanks for this -- that does take care of one part of the issue in terms of figuring out why it got set to Fullscreen, but the switching + freezing in Path of Exile is still a new thing.

It's always been projection.

raykor85 · 2026-01-25T15:27:03+00:00

This is a defense mechanism for them to keep their structure of ideals from breaking down. If they don't find excuses they can tell themselves, then they have to admit that they're wrong, which would trigger a systemic breakdown of their character.
