I've Got It
On one of my YouTube videos views dropped from 53000 per month to 8000. I was looking what could be the cause and I realized that my video almost disappeared from YouTube search list. Before the video was on a first page on a search list and often suggested if you watch similar videos but now you can find it only if you search it by exact title of the video. Anybody knows how to get it back high on the search list ?

Could be a myriad of reasons why this happened. Perhaps YouTube changed their search algorithm so the results are different? I know Google does this every now and then so I would assume YouTube does as well to keep their search results as relevant as possible. If that's the case, your views can go back to normal, get higher, or sadly, even drop further every time it is changed. Other reasons could be that there are other similar videos now that are taking the cake, or that now that the video has aged YouTube simply puts fresher videos closer to the top. Try editing the description of the video a bit and adding some more tags, if YouTube sees that it's been updated they might bring it up to the top if the reason is "freshness."

Hope that helped.

Maybe you should check your tags. Some things might've changed.
 
I can't add more tags, i will change the title and description and see how it goes. Thanks for the advice.
