This kind of technology is going to be applied to the Shorts initiative and gives brands the chance to reach 1.5 billion monthly users of the Shorts platform.
YouTube also says it’s giving users the chance to make use of another enhancement called Selective Run of its Shorts lineup. This would make sure that all ads pop up against the most famous and relevant videos on Shorts. Moreover, such a decision makes sure brands are in the leading position in people’s minds.
This makes sure advertisers are trying to generate the right first impression in a setting that’s very immersive by making sure this ad is the initial one that viewers see whenever they open this YouTube Shorts up.
The company knows that while both long and short-form types of content bring about various benefits for the app, they do prefer Shorts more than anything as it’s more popular and rewarding for all.
Furthermore, the company is now going into detail about the app’s Bias and Consistency policy in terms of content moderation issues. They claim the goal is to strike a balance between both creativity of creators and user safety while limiting the chances of bias taking place.
This is why they’ve got their community guidelines in place that is designed to ensure users’ safety as well as preserve openness while using the platform.
They also feel constant evaluations of content moderation would limit bias in terms of making moderation decisions. Moreover, the app is also designed to ensure policies are more educational and transparent as well as very convenient for people to use.
Last but not least, the app is bettering its re-application policy. Therefore, if a channel applies for YPP and it gets rejected, they have 21 days to appeal or can wait one month to re-apply. And again it’s rejected, they can appeal within 21 days or re-apply after 90 days.
