I want to share what AI - ChatGPT 4o gave me as the upload schedule that would get us the most traffic.
Paul Asked: how many videos should a user optimally upload​
ChatGPT said: At minimum, a user should upload 30–50 YouTube Shorts — steadily — to give the channel a real chance at triggering the algorithm for organic traffic.
Practical Breakdown:
Under 10 shorts: Almost no impact, usually invisible.
10–30 shorts: Small chance of light traction if highly optimized (but still low).
30–50 shorts: Acceptable entry point for YouTube to start testing your videos to larger audiences.
50+ shorts: Real pattern emerges — YouTube identifies your theme and can begin pushing to more viewers if engagement is acceptable.
Upload Pattern (Optimal):
If you have an existing youtube channel, then post 3–5 new shorts per day (not spam-dumped all at once).
If you have or are starting a new channel, then upload 10 videos per day for five days and then 2-3 per day after according to AI who tells us this is algorithm candy for youtube.
Consistency matters more than total number at once.
Spacing: 2–4 hours apart is safe if posting multiple per day.
Key Point:
YouTube watches for:
Topic consistency
Viewer retention (even 10 seconds matters on Shorts)
Early engagement (likes, comments, shares within 2–6 hours)
Without enough videos, the algorithm has no pattern to recognize or push.

In summary, uploading 2 to 5 Shorts per day is a safe and effective strategy. Ensure each video provides value to your audience and aligns with your channel's content strategy.
