Hi All Was wondering if anyone has any experience using YouTube ads? Do you tend to run ads straight away on a new video, or do you wait to see its organic reach first? Any other implementations? Thanks

Hi Guys Great to be here. Just wanted to ask for some advice. I’ve recently opened a Distrokid account and uploaded a whole bunch of albums that I had already prepared. Not realising I was spamming I’ve received an email saying: “ We've been notified by stores and streaming services that one or more of your releases has been rejected due to editorial discretion. Unfortunately, stores are no longer accepting releases from you via DistroKid. You’ll need to try another distributor for future releases. “ Anyone have any advice what I can do next? Would I be able to open a new Distrokid account and use a brand new artist, and begin uploading one album at a time? Or should I try using another service like DittoMusic. Currently DistroKid hasn’t removed any of my albums. But there are a bunch in Processing state. Any advice would be great. Thanks

So after getting in contact with Distrokid support, the account got banned basically along with 3 artists that were in there. Im not sure what the reason was for that to be honest, I stuck to 1 album per artist per week, the albums were very different from each other in style and honestly i just dont know what could have led to this as i took every precaution. Super bummed about it...

Some of you asked. Here it is. Afro house: 3.1 MILLION searches a month, competition score 41 — the best demand-to-competition ratio in our entire vidIQ pull. What's in the pack: 🏔 THE 5 GIANTS — the biggest verified afro house channels, every one linked. Including a 583K-sub channel with 845 MILLION views, a 315K channel growing +44%/month on only 34 videos... and a 398K-sub channel that's OPENLY AI-assisted. Send that link to anyone who says AI channels can't get big. 🎯 THE COPYABLE TEN — breakout channels small enough that the FORMAT is doing the work, not the brand. #1 is a faceless, openly-AI channel averaging 846K views per video on just 17 uploads. 🧠 THE DECODED PLAYBOOK — including the 100X GAP: we pulled apart the #1 channel's catalog and found their familiar-melody videos do 100-500x their originals. Same channel, same quality. Then I show you the SAFE way to ride that: original melodies with familiar energy. No copyright roulette, fully DistroKid-clean. 🎹 34 COPY-PASTE PROMPTS in 6 sections — stadium anthem hooks, desert ritual, sunset luxury, spiritual tribal, amapiano crossover.
