What was the reason they gave for termination, was your content original or reused?
is it possible that youtube does not want Indian channels to gain popularity too early and making them work extra hard than European and American channels.
I also read that they pay much less to Indian content creators for same view compared to Western content creators but argument goes that Western companies pay more for advertisement.
So maybe they are right about that atleast.
They also pay more in Africa compared to India .
I am guessing the Content is too much from Asia , particularly India and may be countries like Thailand , Indonesia etc where every prick has a phone with a stand doing videos .
To put thing into perspective even more.
There is a channel named āWanderdaā. He has a million followers and make travel videos. He made ā¹80k in a month a couple of months back with million views.
Another stat I would like to share. I recently ran an ad for a couple of travel video. It cost me 25paisa and 35paisa per view this time, earlier I could run it for 15paisa per view. It suggests advertisers are offering more money and hence adsense revenue of creator will increase.
These ads were only run in India,pak,nepal,bangladesh,bhutan.
I am not aware of that. A lot of youtubers have talked about making a lot less money on African videos. Maybe compared to India they are making more.
I will try to create an ad for african countries and see what price youtube suggests.
Alright list your other channels here and we can see what type of content you create
Most African films are released on Youtube and they make money to survive . We studied that part last year to understand why African films are not popular in the cinemas .
Here are some more stats.
To run an ad in US I need to pay atleast 2.15ā¹ acc to yt.
To run it in some african countries i need to pay .35ā¹
to run it in india i need to pay .27ā¹
to run it everywhere it suggests .52ā¹
This gives a good idea where money is and why a lot of youtubers target US.
Apologies for derailing from the main topic in above posts.
As for youtube channel termintaion.
It is a slippery slope.We have no protection here in India especially.
In order to get some leverage one needs to have really good reach on Youtube and platform like X and some good contacts inside youtube. A lot of termination is automatic and barely any employee looks into it.
Youtube as a platform is very hostile to creator. It is so easy to copywrite claim. Youtube does this to protect themselves. They donāt care who is right or wrong.
I am not aware of what videos did OP posted so canāt comment much.
I run 2 yt channels(Tech, Travel(just started). My way of doing is not to use anyone elseās clips or even stock clips. Fair use policy can so easily be exploited. Remember recent Mohak Mangal and GamerNexus case.
YouTube is killing its own people
Microsoft is trying to flex its muscles in this YouTube channel deletions.
Does OPs channels or videos contain any similar videos?
Nope, Documentary videos nothing about software, money or anything.
But the article is right, Itās impossible to get a human review, Saw on twitter that a college football channel with 33K subs was deleted citing spam. And even their appeals were rejected and on twitter they kept getting AI response.
Only after somewhat famous footballer made a tweet about it, YouTube re-instated their channel.
YouTubeās whole review and appeal system is under AI bots now.
