Hello everybody,
In this blog post, I'm sharing a YouTube #shorts that I did about the Blue Lagoon Beach in Port Dickson some 100km away from Kuala Lumpur here. Port Dickson is well known among the locals as the place to go to if you want to go to the beach in the west coast of the peninsular. There are a few beaches that you can go to there including the Blue Lagoon beach which is also known as the Pantai Tanjung Biru in the Malay language as well as the Teluk Kemang Beach. They are actually located quite near to each other (about 5 mins drive away).
So I actually went to the beach in September 2020 but the YouTube shorts was uploaded in November 2020. I did not even took the original clip vertically and so the 9:16 format for the shorts video was done through editing. But surprisingly the video did quite well in getting the views of up to 6K.
Anyway here's the traffic source for the YouTube shorts and mostly the traffics come from the shorts feature itself and notice that the views came in suddenly and then later it plateaued and would only get a little bit of views from the other traffic sources.
Anyway I don't do YouTube shorts anymore because it doesn't count toward the watch hours but I do feel that having the YouTube shorts did expose my channel to those who might otherwise not be aware of my channel.
Here's the YouTube shorts if you guys would like to have a look:
