I think my videos are getting view botted.

Hey everyone!

I think some of my videos are getting fake mobile views (view bot). Do you guys know how I can disable mobile views? so I don't get my Youtube account banned. I'm not entirely sure if I am getting view botted or now. But just to be on the safe side I'd rather disable mobile devices from watching my videos. If you guys know how to disable mobile devices from watching my videos please drop a comment or if you have any other suggestions that would be very helpful.

Thanks

Why do you think they are getting fake mobile views?

Well you could either contact youtube about this so it shows you are making an effort that you dont want these views or you could just repost the video, best advice i got

This is because when I go on to my "analytics" I choose date range - lifetime and I look at "top traffic sources" and it shows these results.
Top traffic sources -

1. Mobile apps and direct traffic [50.6%]
2. View referrals from YouTube [45.1%]
3. View referrals from outside YouTube [4.4%]

Oh and to let you know I have 106 videos altogether.

How may I contact them about this problem? But I'd rather go with disabling mobile devices, just to be sure.

Well then i would just disable mobile devices for like a week and then reenable them to see if it happens again

I'm sure it's only some. But one or two of my videos are gone viral on and its getting about 100-200 views every hour or so. That video is called how to get free Xbox Live after patch. Maybe that’s way. My suspicion is on that video.

Thats why because its a VERY largely searched video but idk still suspicous

Hmm. Mobile is #1 for me too but its 36.8%, and I have 84 videos.
