New Community Guidelines By YouTube
YouTube is adding a one-time warning for all users if they violate the community guidelines. This new addition is a great addition to the old 3 strike system because it gives users time to review the community guidelines so they can understand what to do and what not to do. Previously, they would usually have their accounts freeze – so this method is likely to cause less confusion.
YouTube is also solidifying their strike system by offering the same penalties for all strikes. Before, the penalty would change from strike to strike depending on the account. For all marketers who have received a strike before, it can be challenging to navigate out of and adjust as necessary. This new penalty system is a little more lenient and not as harsh – all for the better!
