Growth and monetisation
Questions about YouTube rather than about Leaxor. Answered on their own terms.
- Why are my YouTube Shorts getting no views?Almost always retention, not reach. The Shorts feed shows a video to a small group first and expands only if enough of them watch it through.
- How many Shorts should I post a day?One a day is the level where most channels see compounding. Below roughly three a week, the feed doesn't build a picture of what your channel is.
- What are the YouTube Shorts monetisation requirements?Two routes into the Partner Programme, and Shorts creators usually take the second.
- What counts as reused content on YouTube?Content taken from elsewhere and republished without meaningful original contribution. The test is transformation, not source.
- Do you have to disclose AI content on YouTube?Only for content that could be mistaken for real. YouTube requires disclosure when synthetic media realistically depicts a real person, event or place.
- What is the best time to post YouTube Shorts?It matters much less than the volume of advice about it suggests.
- What is RPM on YouTube?Revenue per mille — what you actually receive per thousand views, after YouTube's share.
- Do AI videos get demonetised on YouTube?Not for being AI-generated. YouTube's monetisation rules turn on originality and viewer value, not on the tools used to produce a video.
- How do you make money with AI videos?Four routes, and ad revenue is the slowest of them despite being the one everyone starts with.
- Are AI videos allowed on TikTok?Yes. TikTok permits AI-generated content and requires it to be labelled when it is realistic.
