From thousands of views to 0
Hello everyone, I have seen so many people ask this question with no answer. My channel went from getting 1k- 8k views per video to legitimately 0. I have uploaded similar content. Before this drop, I took a 2-day break from uploads, and I'm wondering if this is the reason why (I upload shorts). I upload MMA content and my channel is named CursedCombat. Is anyone else having this issue?

There are so many moving parts that could effect why this might happen. Here are a few:
Algorithmic changes: YouTube's algorithm is continuously evolving, and updates to the algorithm can impact the visibility of videos. It's possible that a recent algorithm change affected the distribution and recommendation of your content, leading to a significant decrease in views.
Content relevance: It's important to ensure that your content remains relevant to your target audience. If there has been a shift in viewer preferences or trends within your niche, it could affect the visibility and engagement of your videos. Regularly assessing the relevance of your content and adapting to the changing landscape can help maintain viewership.
Quality or production issues: Viewers value high-quality videos, both in terms of content and production value. If the quality of your recent videos has decreased, whether in terms of video/audio quality, editing, or overall presentation, it may lead to a decline in viewership.
Competitive landscape: The popularity and competitiveness within your niche can also impact viewership. If new channels or videos have emerged with similar content or higher production quality, it could divert viewers' attention away from your channel.
I found the solution, sorry to everyone who viewed this.
Mind sharing it, I had the same problem with one of my channels
100% dead from one day to the other
#My channel got COMPLETELY killed in one day and I have no idea why..
sorry, I dont think I'll be much help. This was very specific for my channel. My channel analytics say that I should post at 4 - 5pm on most days for most traffic. This day was the first day I started uploading at that time, and I got no traffic. before this day I was uploading at 10 - 11pm because it worked on the first few videos I posted. After the day I posted this thread, I went back to posting at normal time, and regained the views.
I don't know why, but it seems I can only post close to midnight.
