Even if shadowbanning is real on YouTube, and as a result of it your channel is now garnering a consistently low view count, you are STILL in a beneficial position.
Think about it like this: any individual who happens upon your channel (while your channel has low view counts), subscribes, and comes back to view more of your uploads will be more likely to become a loyal viewer.
Gradually and slowly your loyal viewership will be your pillars to stand on when the low view counts come. Those very viewers will be the foundation of your continued rise. The ones who do subscribe to you, even after perusing your channel and discovering low view counts (which, let's face it, low view counts tend to indicate that the video is "low-effort" or "low-value", even when it is certainly not always the case)...these very viewers will soon turn into near "GUARANTEED" views.
The one who subscribes to you when you at your lowest is your TRUE fan. They subscribed to you for you. They were not influenced by high subscriber numbers, high view counts, or a "verified" checkmark next to your channel name....(the higher the sub count, the more likely people will sub to your channel. The higher the view count, the more likely people will watch your video.)
Feel blessed to have the subs and views you DO have. Because if you continue, and never give up, you'll soon see that your "guaranteed" views will be in the high numbers, because, with time and effort, you will have gradually built an extremely loyal community.
I'm beginning to notice this pattern with my own channel. It feels amazing to know that there are people in this world that will watch anything I post. What a dream come true.
Keep going, friends.

Great reminder for us all. My views have recently plummeted and itβs hard to remember this is just the process.
