Just a couple of days ago I shared my most viewed video on the subreddit called r/videos a subreddit having over 26 million followers. My reddit post got viral getting into the hot section at 3rd position and in the time period of 24 hours the video received a whopping 15.8 K views, but sadly the YouTube algorithm did not take notice and now the video hardly gets any views.
11 march, 2023 Stats from Viral Video: Channel is LiquidOcelot
Worst things happened and the r/videos subreddit moderators banned me permanently for violation their subreddit rule of “Self Promotion”. I do not wish to go into the r/videos ban and my experience with it that is too long story to tell so may be another time.
The real thing is this exact thing happened in 2020 and in order to understand what exactly occurred in 2020 you need to read this medium story to completely understand the context of this article.
Learning From A Top Influencer Like 
5 years ago I stumbled upon a free course coupon code from Udemy regarding learning the basics of SEO for YouTube offered by Jerry Banfield, of course I enrolled in that course and went on to become a fan of Jerry Banfield. I followed him on his YouTube channel and every social media really including medium.
Jerry Banfield’s main YouTube channel has 274k subscribers hence he is in the category of having received a Silver Play button from YouTube. Yet even with having all of this success on the YouTube platform Jerry Banfield kept on complaining that the YouTube algorithm two key traffic sources factors like browse feature views and suggested views were missing from his videos. Jerry Banfield got the YouTube search traffic and some subscriber views traffic but over a very long period of time the browse feature and suggested views traffic was missing. So a couple of months ago he makes an announcement saying he has created Four (4) different channels, namely:
Jerry Banfield Crypto
Jerry Banfield Gaming
Jerry Banfield Recovery
Jerry Banfield Business
What happens next is very unsurprising really one of his channel Jerry Banfield Crypto is picked by the YouTube algorithm and becomes monetized in the month of March, 2023.
YouTube Employees “Creators Insiders” Shorts video
I am quoting the most important YouTube algorithm factor in 2023 from the above video “Same Audience Same Channel; Different Audience Different Channel”.
This video was uploaded on the official YouTube employees Channel called “Creator Insider” on 25th of January ,2023 as a shorts video upload.
Let me explain what this quote means; lets break it down:
“Same Audience Same Channel” is referred to your YouTube channel’s subject(topic) on which topic you make videos on and your audience is expecting you to create videos surrounding that specific topic so obviously you know what subject matter that be and you will create your YouTube videos around that topic.
“Different Audience Different Channel” is referred to you deciding to make YouTube videos on entirely different niche which is not relevant to your YouTube audience so you simply cannot and should not post these videos on the same YouTube channel hence you will have to upload these different topics YouTube videos to an entirely different YouTube channel which is optimized for the relevant subject matter.
I Have Created 5 Separate YouTube Channels: Each Having A Specified Niche
Learning from experience and also from the two examples in the form of Jerry Banfield and Creator Insider Shorts Video. I created the following Five (5) YouTube channels and each channel is assigned a specific category and optimized accordingly; here they are:
The channel descriptions is directly taken from the YouTube channel’s about page.
LiquidOcelot Medium
“Due to the YouTube algorithm consistently burying down my content and not giving me any organic traffic what so ever I have decided to create separate YouTube channels with separate niches. The decision took me a long while but eventually I had to make it thanks to the YouTube algorithm policies which they never tell you really. The channel I am talking about here is all going to be about Medium.com related news, tutorials, how to, My Medium Earnings report, Medium.com guidelines, Interviews And every thing related to medium.com really in it’s entirety. Please subscribe ladies and gentleman (Make sure to press the bell Icon) and expect lots and lots of content coming right up in this week. Expect this channel to be really active with weekly even daily uploads even though it will not be monetized by adsense will take round about 1 month to even 1 year who knows.”
LiquidOcelot Crypto
“The YouTube algorithm does not like multi niche channels hence I am forced to create an entirely separate YouTube channel just for the Cryptocurrency niche. Expect this YouTube channel to make videos on topics such as how to get free crypto, crypto related news and updates, Interviews, crypto powered platforms reviews and all things related to crypto currency. Please only subscribe if the Crypto currency topic interests you.”

So Which Topics I Have Chosen For My Main YouTube Channel?
My main YouTube Channel LiquidOcelot will be primarily focussing on these three subjects from now on; a decision based the audience demand given to me by the YouTube analytics.
. Reddit

. Artificial Intelligence
The video production on all these Six YouTube channels will begin later in the week and I will be uploading two times a week on a consistent basis.
No YouTube Monetization On The Five (5) New Created Channels: So How Am I Gonna Make Money From Them
I will be simply doing affiliate marketing and also using the strategy of Link building which automatically leads my unique viewers to my monetized content.
Here are the things I will be focussing on with my affiliate marketing strategy:
. My Amazon KDP book Link
. My Email List Generation links that includes substack, gumroad and buy me a coffee.
. My Link aggregator from Taplink
I Do Not Hope To Succeed: I Know I Will Succeed
I have over 12 years of experience being a content creator on YouTube and have uploaded well over 1,000 videos. Using this strategy of segmentation and mixing it with my experience I will easily achieve success in a very short amount of time. The results are guaranteed because the research does not lie nor does the case study of Jerry Banfield which i shared in this medium story. This research is based on absolute facts and facts do not lie one bit especially when it is recommended by the employees of YouTube them selves in the form of “Creators Insider” YouTube Shorts Video shared earlier.
This is my YouTube journey and I would like to invite you to join my journey to see whether I fail or succeed but only it might interest you of course.
