YouTube Might Delete This Channel...

About this video

Sean explains that his channel is at risk of deletion and asks viewers for help. He says that over seven years he uploaded over 600 videos and grew to over 415,000 subscribers with no prior issues, but in the last month YouTube removed three videos: the first drew a warning, the second a strike, and a third removed that morning — a private training video for his VA uploaded over 3 years ago — luckily brought no further strike. He notes three strikes in a 90-day period means channel deletion, and says with one strike he effectively feels he has only one strike of safety left before posting becomes too risky. The first two videos — one titled around making 10K per month with Amazon KDP and one on nine Amazon KDP niches earning $300 plus per day — were flagged under harmful or dangerous content; the VA video was removed under harassment and cyber bullying. He says both appeals were rejected, YouTube support repeatedly told him to review the guidelines, contact on X looped him back to email support, and emails to over 50 people who apparently worked for YouTube got no response. Reviewing the policies himself, he guesses the closest match is the scams policy on exaggerated promises and get-rich-quick claims, tied to the income figures in his titles. He argues he never guarantees results, backs the 10K and $300 figures with real examples of books and brands earning those amounts, and includes disclaimers in the video, the description and a separate comment. He also points to other channels using similar income-figure titles without removal. His ask: viewers should comment respectfully — not aggressively — on his X post tagging the Team YouTube accounts, saying they watch his videos and he is not promoting a scam, hoping volume will get YouTube to take the case seriously.

Key takeaways

• Sean reports three videos removed in one month — a warning, then a strike, then a private VA training video from over 3 years ago — against a rule of three strikes in 90 days causing channel deletion.
• The two public videos were flagged for harmful or dangerous content; the VA video was removed under harassment and cyber bullying, which he says does not match its content.
• Both appeals were rejected, support only told him to re-read the guidelines, and he says emails to over 50 apparent YouTube employees went unanswered.
• His own guess is that income figures in titles (10K per month, $300 per day) triggered the scams/exaggerated-promises policy; he says the figures were backed by real book examples and he never guarantees results.
• His requested remedy is viewer comments on his X post tagging Team YouTube, stated respectfully, saying he is not promoting a scam.
