From our Creative Director πππ
..........................................
Sometimes last year, I lost three of my YouTube channels
βAll above 2k subscribers
βTwo not monetised
βOne monetised with $137 as my first payout already sitting pretty in my AdSense account
Not until I got Demonetised on my monetised account π«
And later on, three of the channels were all permanently deleted from YouTube and my IP address banned from opening any YouTube channel with that smartphone
This broke me, I tried appealing but to no avail!
I didn't know why YouTube gave me such judgement until two nights ago during my research - it all made sense β οΈ
I discovered why my channels got deleted and also why many channels in 2026 won't even smell monetisation not to talk about retaining their channel after being monetised and lots of money made on that channel
I had to fix a class immediately for my students in my academy and broke down my discovery to them, now they too can avoid the same mistakes I made
I won't be sharing it all here because it took me time to discover, you can get my course this month end for the February cohort at Havill Hive Academy
YouTube is not banning the use of A.I
YouTube is only regulating it's use
And also tracking down channels
βNot declaring their use of AI for their content
βMass producing content that are repetitive and low budget
Some of you thinking you can create your imaginary videos using GROK or META AI and just upload on YouTube, you'll be crying soon!
Some of you using robotic AI voices and generic scripts for your videos, you'll soon discover that you're labouring in vain
YouTube has been messed up with all these mass produced AI SLOPS videos, which is why they are trying to sanitise the platform again by promoting original content and creative processes invested into videos eligible to earn on their platforms and how it is being created!
A lot to say but all will be explained during the monthly cohort in our academy and those who are in my mentorship
You don't need to believe me, keep doing what you think you're doing until it's time for monetisation, then you'll understand π
The game has changed in 2026 for YOUTUBE CONTENT CREATION, dont say i didn't send the warning β οΈ
