 What's going on guys, now over the past week YouTube has been rolling out a system update which has affected many many content creators including myself. This system is an automatic system which basically searches the millions of daily uploaded videos to YouTube for certain keywords within the title, the description and the tags. Now what happens when you find these keywords is basically the video loses monetization so the content creator can't apply ads to it and can't make money from their videos. While a system as such could be a good thing, it's affecting many many content creators who are doing nothing wrong and their videos are fine, yet they're still being hit by this. YouTube themselves have admitted the system isn't perfect which it ain't by a long shot but at the end of the day it's in place and we might just have to make do with it if we want to stay on their platform. Now today I'm going to try and help you guys out, as me personally I've had just under 300 videos hit by this new system update and I've kind of found a link between them all and I explain all I can in this video to help you guys out and keep your future videos safe. Now if your video manager looks like this and it's just full of videos that have been demonetized or if you've got only a certain few videos that have been demonetized and you're thinking about requesting a review, there's a few things you may want to do before you actually request that review. Now like I said YouTube and this system it searches for certain keywords, if you find these keywords it gets hit by this demonetization nonsense. So if you're going to request a review you want to remove such keywords now there's certain keywords which you may not think are bad but YouTube on the other hand will do. So anything war related is a no-no. Anything which could be deemed a weapon is also a no-no the word weapon itself is a no-no. Anything death related kill death whatever is an absolute no-no. Even some instances I'm seeing the word leak being affected and as I do a lot of top 5 free cat reactions free cat I'm thinking is another word as well and I can understand as anything sexual related could be misinterpreted by this new system and be hit so anything sexual related words such as war death kill anything weapon related and so forth is a big no-no so basically if you're thinking about requesting a review you want to go into the editing tab in your video menu of the video you want to request a review on and you want to search it for any bad words as we can see here one bullet 10 kills so you just want to do change that one bullet 10 players down you want to use such words as simple as that you definitely want to stay away from words such as kill death etc etc because it's a big no-no now my video description is fine as I did a bulk edit on my video description which I'll show you guys to do in a quick second so we're going to go on to tags now there's going to be a few tags here which I know and not going to be being worthy by YouTube so let's see what we got here actually I'm not seeing that much I'm not seeing that much no I'm not seeing anything in my tags which in my opinion seem well could be bad could be being bad by YouTube but definitely my title did have the word killer in it so yes that's probably why this one video got done over so what you want to do is and as well I'm not sure if video thumbnails are affected but if you've got the word killer anything bad in your video thumbnail just change it make a new one or just change it to one of the default ones so once you've done that you want to save it before you click monetization so once it save click on monetization and request a manual review so this is me this means basically someone working at YouTube will check out your video manually and as we can see it says this right here right now we're only able to review videos with at least 1000 views within the past seven days will review your video when it reaches that threshold and give you a final decision usually within a week now this is the problem a lot of small content creators here don't get a thousand views within a week on their video so once they video gets demonetized it's it struck there's nothing they can do about it the system itself is completely bust it's just broke it's a bad bad system and YouTube personally do need to sort it out they seriously do now before I show you how to bulk edit your videos another thing you want to sort out is your default tags default description etc etc and also your channel tags so what you want to do is you want to go to channel which is on the left hand side within your video manager click on upload defaults and anything bad within here take it out I actually had because you guys know I do destiny videos I had weapon reviews and setups within every single one of my video descriptions I did a bulk edit and remove the weapon and as you can see it just says reviews and setups now which probably would have made an impact on a lot of my videos I mean I've uploaded 3000 videos to YouTube now only 200 nothing 280 or 290 were affected so I'm glad I did remove this before the system did come in place now if you've got default tags as well double check them if you've got a default title double check that and then just click save then what you want to do is click on advanced and check your channel keywords because if there's anything bad in here just simply remove it and you guys know the keywords I explained at the start of the video anything sexual related anything war related anything that could be deemed a weapon anything to do with killing dying terrorism absolutely anything like that you do not want to use anything you want to stay completely away from them okay so now I'm going to show you guys how you can bulk edit your videos so we'll go back to my video manager at the top here we can see it says what you can click here and it marks every single video then you can click this year all videos on this page are selected select all your videos whatever okay so what you want to do then is click on description or tags whatever title even click on description we've got a pen set to and remove you want to click on and remove and write in a keyword so it would weapon and just click submit and it will probably take a while if you got many videos takes about 20 minutes to do or 25 minutes to do all my 3000 videos but that's how you move bulk words from your description the same thing works with tags as well you can do the same thing remove tags now this is another thing to add as well which is actually important if you're opting to remove the word weapon from all your video tags and you've got weapon review in your video tags it won't remove weapon review it only moves the single tag of weapon so if you want to remove weapon review you have to actually type in here weapon review same go to kills kill streak etc etc but at the end of the day this is to remove tags from your videos I've probably already been demonetised for this very reason and that very tag so basically a bulk edit probably won't help you as it's already been demonetised so like I said just do what I said with the request in a review and remove all them keywords now another thing I'm not sure if it's picked up by this new system is you swearing in your videos now I've got many videos that I've still got swearing in on my behalf that haven't been demonetised but then I've got other videos that I've got no bad keywords in a title description or in the video tags but yet I'm swearing and it's got demonetised so the way the system works is completely puzzling to be honest I'm not sure if YouTube themselves understand how it works and here's another instance I've requested in the view I'm probably about a hundred plus videos at the moment YouTube have got back to me on two of them one of them was a talking about a strategy guide for destiny 2 nothing bad at all within the video title description tags the thumbnail or even in the video nothing bad whatsoever the other video was a top five sniping killstreaks of the week now are these two videos which one do you think like it's monetization back and which one got denied yes you guessed it the strategy video got denied but yet my top five sniping killstreaks of the week was allowed to be demonetised and that is what I'm saying YouTube themselves are confused there's no two which ways about it another thing to add guys as well if you've got a video which is ready to be uploaded to YouTube make sure that video itself has got no bad words in it no bad keywords YouTube may pick up on so for instance if this video here was called top five kill streaks YouTube will pick that up and flag it straight away so keep your videos rendered ready to upload to YouTube at a default minimum no bad keywords in them whatsoever and you should be fine but yeah guys the system is BS but it is in place the only thing you can do to keep you and your channel and your video safe is to stay away from any bad keyword YouTube may pick up on and flag your video and I'll go through the keywords again anything war-related and you can understand why a lot of quality videos are being hit by this anything referring to a weapon like a weapon review a weapon montage or of a said weapon say SMG I've had a lot of videos with auto rifle SMG's rocket launches in the titles I've been flagged so stay away from anything like that anything sexual related I mean I've had a load of my old-school black ops emblems and flagged a lot of them had sexy ladies they all got flagged which I can easily fix gain anything deflated anything kills anything terrorism related anything like that be super careful of and again just double check absolutely everything in your video description your tags and your title and that is it guys I hope this video helped you out if you're a little confused about this situation but to be honest I don't think you're confused as you two are at the minute with this actual whole system it's just a big mess it seriously is but guys hope you enjoyed the video thanks as always for stopping by do hit that like button if it helped you out and I'll see you on that next one
