Hey SGTREPORt, Seriously consider making at least one more youtube channel so you can upload your videos there too if you get banned. It is ok to do this many channels due and tell your subs to sub to that so they know where to go. YT is going crazy with strikes.
Also, don't partner with Youtube's adsense, go find a MCN, Multi Channel Network. When I had my videos flagged they helped me get it resolved. IF you try to resolve it yourself with Adsense they won't get back to you, they only talk with higher up channels that have millions of subs. The reason to join a MCN is because they actually can talk to YT and get things resolved.
You would likely make 10% to 20% less money though since the MCn takes a cut, but I tink it is worth it. Seriously see if you can find a good one that lets you be free and do what you want to do.
Upvoted myself so you could see this comment(I have been in your situation). Let me know if you want to talk more about it dude :)
I up Voted your Comment too. I think everyone will be on STEEMIT that has great content on Youtube that way if all your content is here and you get PAID to have stuff on STEEMIT there is no reason to care about Youtube anymore. STEEM ON !!!
Exactly @stokjockey!
Re-upvoted truthforce, I will work on creating a backup channel. I technically already have one that I think is "officially" on You Tube AS "SGT report"... I started in 3 or 4 years ago. I better look into how the heck I did that and what email I used in order to revive it.
Are any steemians working on an alternative to youtube? It would be nice to remove all revenue to google/facebook/twitter etc......
Some YouTubers who've had their monetization shut off have been promoting Vidme as an alternative to YouTube.
Thanks, checking it out.
Despite their appeals to content creators, Vidme has censorship issues as bad as Youtube, I hear.
