Hello dear readers! I have been running this channel for exactly one year and today I am posting the final 201 articles. Sad news happened. Channel "My medicine"unexpectedly came under restrictions. There is good news, too. You can read new articleson the young channelHERE.
I think that this channel was treated unfairly and I will try to explain everything in detail in this article. Maybe you will have a different opinion.
Exactly a month ago, the channel saw a sharp decline in the number of articles shown. I decided to write to the support service. I was politely replied a day later that the channel fell under the "clickbait" restriction.
I thought it was a mistake as the articles are checked well before being published. And from the side of the platform, system failures are periodically observed. For example, the last time this happened was in November 2019. Then the support team admitted to the error and fixed the problem.
Alas, this time there were no errors and it was made clear to me that there was a "clickbait" on the channel.
You cannot argue against the system, deleted most of the articles that could fall under the "clickbait". Also, three new, author's publications were added that do not violate the platform rules (I had a lot of time to study each item).
It remained to wait for day X, when the channel would be sent for a second check. The confidence that there would be no problems was 100%. But tonight's message from a joyful support person completely discouraged me.
The channel was limited on three parameters: clickbait, borrowed content and shocking content. Strange, isn't it? It turns out that two additional constraints appeared on their own, and even if I could eliminate the clickbait violation, the unexpected constraints would help to fire the control shot.
I believe that it was decided to restrict the channel in advance, and these checks were made formally to divert the eyes (well, of course, not to violate the platform rules). It's a shame, of course, but that's the truth.
At the best time, the channel "My Medicine" was visited by 1.29 million readers per month.
The channel has long been in the top 50 health and fitness categories.
The plans for the development of the canal were grandiose, but at one point everything was covered with a copper basin. Now I see channels in the TOP that blatantly copied articles. It is sad to realize that it is difficult for simple authors to trust 100% of a platform that can just worry about you and spit you out at any time.
Although the biggest pity is not the channel itself, but the readers and subscribers, who received interesting information about health every day.
Do not forget, dear friends, that the medical portal "My medicine"continues its work. Therefore, whoever is interested can go to link.
P.S. I would also like to add that the channel will resume its work, but after a long time.
