Today I will teach you why does your public watch ours is not updating this issue is known to all YouTube channel.

This is just beginning first matters first, you can view your public watch hours by navigating to your YouTube channel and then click to YouTube studio after that scroll down and find the monetization page as you can see this is the page that display your data and if you are eligible for the YouTube Partner Program the 4000 public watch hour is the threshold or the minimum requirement for applying to YouTube Partner Program.

YouTube explained what is public watch our means not all watch hours count towards the YouTube Partner Program threshold what counts as a valid public watch our watch hours gain from videos.

You've set public so basically all public video which everyone can view is displayed on your public watch our watch hours gained through the following types of video do not count towards the YouTube Partner Program threshold private videos unlisted videos deleted videos true view campaigns unfortunately to the videos you have set private which means only you can view or the unlisted video that only those people who have the link of the video can watch the watch hour of this video is not included in the public watch our view even the views of the video that you deleted will be deducted regardless of public or private.

So now let me explain why does your YouTube public watch ours is not updating first thing is you need to check if your account violates any YouTube channel monetization policies or community standards which includes the following nudity or sexual content hateful content harassment and cyber bullying threats privacy child safety harmful or dangerous content violent or graphic content spam misleading metadata and scams copyright impersonation.

If you did not violate any of this policies then you can send a feedback to YouTube support team just click on the send feedback button then provide the information about the issue that occur in your account you after that you need to send a screenshot of the part where the problem is you then click the send button. I did this to my channel in my first two weeks because I have the same issue regarding the public watch hours.

I also searched for other reasons why my watch hours is not updating surprisingly I got some interesting news that I searched earlier this year YouTube but parted their YouTube studio you the old YouTube studio which is called classic.

YouTube studio is updated to the new YouTube studio that we are using right now this means YouTube also updated their policies regarding the YouTube Partner Program after this update in 2020 there's a lot of issue that most of the content creators is experiencing such as why does my watch hour be reduced the analytic is not accurate in the monetization page the watch hour is not updating although there is a lot of views in my videos so as you can see this issue is not about your account but about on YouTube's update after notifying this issues to YouTube they answer all the reports and they suspected that there are features that needed to be fixed.

They are working on it but as you know with the current situation of our community with the pandemic we are experiencing the YouTube support team is also affected that they do not have enough workforce to fix all the issue immediately so all we can do for now is to patiently wait and continue with growing our channel after reviewing all this issue and researching.

I waited for almost more than two weeks before the public watch hour is updated on my channel although it's not that accurate with the watch hours of my videos so guys for those who are experiencing this issue right now please do not worry about your watch our YouTube will update that thank you for watching hope this explained the reason of the public watch hour that is not updating please leave a feedback on the comment section and don't forget to subscribe to my channel
