Personally am not a fan of shorts they are too similar to tiktok except that the majority of them are just people using them as an advert to their next video and I don't like or use tiktok either I'd just rather wait for the full video to be released from the channels I'm subscribed to or watch any full video I might like the content of. Although your approach to them actually being usefull and not related to any future videos or just being a silly clip of someone elses work is refreshing to see, kind of like getting a cheat sheet for when you forget something you mentioned in your main channel videos and yes I see the irony in the adverts although as said its usefull information and as all techies do we forget some of the basics from time to time like what was the obscure term for this or that again or where did I see this feature before etc which has probably contributed to the rise in views of your channel also. I think the only downside of your method was not telling the regular viewers that this was an experiment at the end as doing so would have opened yourself up to get more data at the end by creating a pole or some sort of quick questionair for both regular and new viewers as to what we thought of the your new presenting style. All in all though to sum it up I think we learned that if you did compare your analytics to a similar subbed channel that purely put shorts advertising their next video against yours, yours would come out on top almost guaranteed. Excellently produced as always hopefully yourself reads this and maybe gets some extra insight as to what shorts could mean to others like myself.

The shorts format is perfect for detailing how to do 'a thang' in DR. When I want to do an effect, etc., the bare bones instructions is what I want. I began noticing you apart from other tutors with this approach. Possibly you were creating a niche? Keep it up. It really makes sense to have the short format for Q&A. I have serious memory loss from brain surgery. The idea of getting a 30-60 second how to works really well. I will be visiting and revisiting these quick tutorials much more often than the 10-30+minute videos that are all encompassing and I feel can be a tremendous waste of time. I really like the short and sweet approach to teaching something in bites, versus a seven coarse meal. Please keep doing the DR shorts. Thank you.

I did the experiment using clips from my listical videos but still it became a grind. Drop off after stopping happened just as DB shows but I actually saw a 20% drop in new subs but no change at all in lost subs.

I did what I now think was crazy, which didn't work. I posted 100 shorts in 8 days. It was gruelling, to say the least. The idea was that I would promote one of my books, which had not been selling well. None of the shorts did that well. So far, the best one (about 10 days old now) has about 350 views. From the 100 shorts, I have so far put on 19 subscribers. The channel was flatlining before, as I have never really uploaded much to it. At the end of each video (basically mini bytes from the book) I held up a copy of the book and said "Buy this book today and change your life tomorrow" I now like Daniel's saying ASKHOLE :-) The upshot of this ..... I did not sell one single book so far from this exercise. Now..... Daniels's shorts do something basic... They offer VALUABLE quick tips on how to do something. In short (no pun intended), they provide USE VALUE, which is ironic as my book is 100% focused on achieving success by providing USE VALUE to others. Hope this helps someone to either save a lot of time or learn what NOT to do.. For me, what Daniel did here has extreme potential value going forward. Many Thanks

Great insights there, Martin! I definitely think that we, as Creators, have to think first and foremost about the viewer experience. We need to provide a great experience for every viewer with each Short, provide value with every Short and give the viewer a reason to watch another video (of any length) from us. I don't believe Shorts are right for every channel but I do think they're right for most. When people tell me they tried Shorts and they don't work, I always think to myself, "Shorts work, your strategy didn't".

I have just ordered the speed editor, which will be here in a few days, and it comes with Studio, so it's a great deal.

Show a cat falling off a TV and it probably would generate 2M views. The next test maybe fall off your chair a few times while working on Resolve tips...

Doing exactly as you showed here, I noticed I lost 7 subscribers because of shorts, but in contrast that same short form content brought me 574 subscribers (I'm with 2.736 by now).

Check this out. I did a 30 days experiment. Trend I found was that after my time was up on the shelf all shorts died. But here is the interesting part, Just entering a new title on the videos. Some got a second chance on the shelf. A little later I repeated this experiment but with a new structure and now all shorts got two chances on the shelf and stayed there a bit longer than the first chance. So I saw some what similar results to you. However, the negative impact was that my long form videos all stopped getting recommendations, so much attention on the shorts, many videos went to 0 impressions and stayed there. I couldn't revive them. Don't quote me but it seems like results are different between different channel sizes so it seems. Bigger channels more data for youtube to use has a different impact. Little channels with barley any data , youtube doesn't have enough for data to go by so the impact is greater. But your the expert Daniel. I'm just sharing what I've seen in my own testing.

I think your shorts format works really well. Many times, when I watch a video--particularly a video that teaches me something about Davinci Resolve--I get annoyed with all the nonsense instead of getting right to it. Of course, your videos are limited to viewers that have interest in Davince Resolve. But I would have expected it would push your channel forward.

Great video brother, it has inspired me, I don;t know if I can do anything with the inspiration, but I am looking into it (The wheels in my head keep on turnin, I don't know what I'll be doing tomorrow). One thing I see you have done in this series, that you have told us not to do is have the number of the video, like #3 of the series or #5, etc. Even before I started working with you, I never liked doing it, but what are your thoughts on it now. Has Shorts changed your mind about that strategy?

It was strategic for this Shorts series because there are no custom thumbnails to help differentiate them and my strategy makes them all feel similar. So the title is the only place I can separate one from another

Just an anecdotal bit of information: I thought I was already subscribed to you and I hadn't seen one of your videos in a long time, but a day after I searched something about DaVinci and watched a different video, one of your "for noobs" shorts popped up. I realized I wasn't actually subscribed, corrected that, and here I am.

After watching your original video, I uploaded shorts for 20 days. I noticed an increase in all metrics, which was encouraging. I'm going to wait another 20 days and repeat the experiment. I've mixed thoughts on shorts as to their future.

i have come across many channels doing this posting long or short every single day for a month - and whilst the concept is interesting - so many creators say it lead them to being burnt out and exhausted. yeah its good to try experiment like this - but got to take care of that mental and physical health - being mindful of your limitations. this video serves as hope - whilst uploading anything daily might not be viable for many (real life must come first) - i acknowledge that upload frequency can be key to growth. as creators we must think about how we can create a schedule for ourselves, that can go with our daily lives outside of the internet and outside of YT!! cool video with some interesting stats here Daniel. 👍👍

Thanks Daniel for the great insight into how shorts might work on our channels. I have been publishing shorts off and on and they have also been a subscriber boon to my channel - most of my channel is devoted to long form content and lives. I have 2 shorts that I published over 1 year ago and they are still receiving traffic, but 80-90% of that is from search with the rest being mostly from the shorts shelf. Funny thing is, the graph of their views looks fairly exponential at this point that they are gaining more views now than they did when they were first published. They are also driving subscribers to my channel as well (20% of new subscribers come from those 2 shorts). I am interested to see how much traffic your shorts receive after 1 year of being published and from where the traffic arrives to watch them.

I think enough time has passed that a lot of viewers have learned how to operate Resolve. Of course there will always be "noobs". For me, many were interesting but, I'm just a basic editor so, many were just that, interesting. Honestly some I just passed by because I didn't, immediately see how they were useful to my purposes. Others I keep going back to because they do fit my needs. If I were into more advanced editing, they all were great. But, I'm not so, some just weren't within my needs. I will say that overall, it did "hurt" the long form versions because I could get that "quick tip" I didn't know I needed or the tip I was looking for without going to the long form. So, it's kind of a trade off. "Should I make a short and a long form of the same content?" Knowing, from experience, that you usually go into more detail with your long form, I say yes YOU should. For a quick tip your shorts are great but, for those needing more detail your long form is great. So, you in particular, are reaching the "how do I do this" audience and the "I don't understand how to this" audience. For me to do shorts, it would be taking a clip of a certain element from a longer project in order to highlight that process. Such as, I'm and acrylic painter so, I might extract a tip on how to paint trees. That clip would then become a short. But, unless you're one of my following along viewers, there is not going to be much value in the long form videos for the tip seeker. This may be why shorts seem to add a "handicap" to my channel.

Good analysis. The overall viewpoint of shorts will, I assume, change over time as it just becomes a normal part of KZitem. (If they aren't already) Your experiment was great. IMO there are a few reasons shorts have gotten a bad name for channels up to this point: 1. People would post unrelated shorts to their pillar content and therefor lose viewers or subscribers because that's "not where they're here for." 2. People are just reposting TikTok content that's, again, unrelated to their pillar content. 3. KZitem is experimenting still with the way shorts are recommended and pushed to viewers. 4. Shorts are just being used ONLY as a funnel to the main content. When I'm watching shorts, reels, or TikTok I'm normally in the "bite sized and rapid fire" mindset of content consumption. I'm not looking to "discover" a new channel and have to watch more... or worse... have to look for part 2, 3, etc of the short to get the rest. Thanks for another great video and doing the experiment!

If your Shorts strategy is driving the awareness and conversion metrics you’re looking for pal, I see no reason not to lean on them more heavily. Exactly what I’ve done. The issue I have is when people make bold statements as if content is ever an “either/or” scenario. It isn’t.

The most important data is that you earned $6.23 (minus tax fees)! So you need 30 videos/shorts and 118k views for $6.23! I also had "catastrophic" earning on shouts - only one short (first and last) and I had 3.2K views and 12cents. So if you don't have something extremely cute, weird, funny ... Shorts isn't for you! If you like Shorts - you are probably watching it on TikTok! Shorts are an invention of TikTok. This is why USA and EU wants to ban TikTok ;).

I was wondering who would mention that first! They really don’t make money, if that’s anyone’s primary focus. I never make Shorts hoping to drive revenue same way I don’t expect Community Tab posts to drive revenue. I’ll leave that to the long form content. It’s all about channel growth and deeper reach for me 😎
