![]() ![]() I just made the video private as I am afraid Youtube will think this is of my doing. ![]() How do I find out the source of these views? Also, I guess there is no way to contact youtube on this issue unless you've reached 1000 viewers. If this keeps happening (and they do turn out to be bots), then the youtube algorithm might downgrade my channel and videos for suspicion of using subbots and what not. I tried to google around for any external website that could have embedded my video, but no luck. A simple YouTube view botting application developed with Python. ![]() The source of these views is 92% external and almost all of those are 'Other' so I can't trace it to any website. How is that possible if people do not even watch the video? Did someone send an army of bots to my channel? The watch retention time is going down fast due to these new viewers. Furthermore, the amount of new subscribers from that video reached to more 120 within 24 hours, a lot more than from the videos I uploaded before that were more popular. So the views exploded 10-fold, but the watch hours stayed typical to what it was before. The video also got hundreds of new likes, which is strange if people don't watch after 0:01 and also for the amount of views it has now (4K or so). Yesterday, one of my videos started getting a lot of views (a lot in my terms), but the new viewers seemed to all watch less than the first second of the video. ![]()
