Am I The Only One Losing Views Because Of This New Layout?

Actually it happened to us as well. Go look at our videos from two mnths ago and they were in the 5k-10k range. Since the new layout took full effect, we've barely been gettin 100 views. A MAJOR decline.
 
Actually I think it depends on the determination of your audience to find you. Basically, youtube has put as at a point where the only way your subs are gonna keep watching you, is if they look for you. Outside of that, they have ruined our chances of them just finding you in their feed. Sure it happens, but for the most part? It's a trap of random bull s**t that causes people to only see what is placed right before them. Unless you have a strong hold on your audience, they won't find you in a large percentile basis.[DOUBLEPOST=1356691465,1356691416][/DOUBLEPOST]I still believe this is purposeful too, youtube is trying to weed us out.
 
It may be not because of the layout but as of recently my videos have averaged 50 views when they used to be 100-150. Probably because of Christmas.
 
Nope, not the only one. My view counts are down as well! I mean I used to at least hit over 100 views....now I'm barely making it to 100 with some of my songs!
 
I think it is because of the way YouTube ranks videos now. Along with the update YouTube made the ranking to be more determined by the amount of minutes people watch your video than by just clicking on it. Thus giving a disadvantage to shorter videos.

Good videos are the ones that are made with passion and poor tools too!

Seriously guys, I gave you a solution on how to deal with Youtube's layout. Youtube is not going to make things easier for creators to get traffic; they want you to buy AdWords campaigns for your videos.

Help us make this app and you'll get traffic if you do the pledges to get your videos into our default timeline,

Now just wait a minute buddy first of all would it make any sense to force YouTubeers into buying ad sense and limiting their views when YouTube's main cash flow is from the ads it puts inside your videos and it wouldn't make sense to lower your views and make less money on your partnership just because they want you to buy ad sense

Think about it a bit before you start posting broad claims like this.
