Hello everyone, not sure if anyone experienced enough can talk to me or faced a similar problem before, but I'm gonna ask here anyways because I won't make the same mistake again and ignore it.
Basicaly, I had a channel before my current one with over 2,000 subscribers and after 2 years YouTube closed it in a matter of 1 night. The reason "community guidelines violation" and after like 20 emails with support I got an answer with the reason that there was some kind of a bot / spider messing with the channnel, meaning I got generated views, likes and so on.
Now, I have no idea how to defend myself against this and how to detect and remove the things that are causing this. Because I think it started to happen again.
Every time I upload a video, I instantly get a like on it, no matter when. I experimented with the uploads a little that maybe one of the users is just really active and gets notified or something. But I've tried, day/ night / afternoon. Still I got a like right away. One of the subscribers always leaves a comment too very soon after the upload, and keeps commenting a lot. Might seem a little harsh, but I reported him for spam and blocked him from commenting on the channel.
Still my question is, how can I be sure if it's him ? How can I deal with generated views / likes ? How to protect myself from more as when I can't I might get the channel closed after hard work again ?
Thank you.
