YouTube Account Questions

6 replies
I feel really confused about my YouTube account.

1. I know after 3 strikes your account is terminated - does this mean 3 strikes within a 6 month period only or within your life time with YouTube :confused: The reason I am asking is that if it is just 3 strikes and you are closed down then this will almost certainly happen at somepoint so is there really any long term benefit of building your account up to have it all taken away eventually. I have had 1 strike and a couple of my videos have been flagged of late, all by competitors of course.

2. If they close down your account, will all your other accounts then be closed :confused:


3. I use Animoto for my videos where music comes with the videos. I have had some 6 Copyright notices to say this as below: All my other videos are fine and I don't know what I need to do. Am I suppose to acknowledge these notices :confused: Thanks if anyone can help with these questions This is the notice:

Your video may include music that is owned by a third party.
To hear the matched music please play the video on the right. The video will play from the point where the matched content was identified.
Your video is available and playable.

  • Moneyland,

    As mentioned by larry, you could just get another account and start over. If you are uploading copyrighted content though this will keep happening to you. You might want to try a different strategy if you are in it for the long term.

      Essentially if you are in the "Make Money" niche, nearly everything that you do on the internet is considered spam and you are going to get blocked, rejected, banned and cursed at!!!

      Don't Worry about it...Just keep making content. If it is good content you can always start a new account, change the video length and headline and you wil be able to upload it again..

      I am not sure what to do because I am using Animoto paid membership and upload my own original content to their templates. I select a sound track so have permission to use their background music and now YouTube have only selected 6 out of my 400 videos to say that "Your video may include music that is owned by a third party"

      I am not sure what to do - I guess I should just click the link to say claim is "not valid" :confused:

      Has anyone else had a similar experience :confused:
