This article will show you how to make your subscribers private and public, as well as a couple of other features you can use to keep your subscribers under wraps. While you won&#8217;t see your subscribers on the main YouTube dashboard, you will still be able to see them if you visit the YouTube Studio.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Increase_comment_moderation\"><\/span>Increase comment moderation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>On June 29th, YouTube will no longer let users hide their subscriber counts. The reason is simple: YouTube wants to fight fake accounts. They are increasing comment moderation. Spam isn&#8217;t new on social media, but it has become a big problem lately. YouTube wants to protect its subscribers from fake channels and make it harder for people to impersonate creators. By increasing comment moderation, they hope to protect both real creators and their viewers.<\/p>\n<p>To keep subscribers from being deceived by fake accounts, YouTube has also implemented a policy that will limit the use of special characters in channel names. This will reduce the options for scammers and other bad actors. YouTube is stepping up its comment moderation by allowing creators to increase the strictness of comment moderation. The new policy is still an experimental one, but it&#8217;s good news for the community.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Make_subscriptions_public_or_private\"><\/span>Make subscriptions public or private<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To make YouTube subscriptions public or private, visit the settings tab on your profile. Depending on your preferences, you can make each subscription public or private. Private subscriptions do not show up in your channel&#8217;s Subscribers List, but they do appear in the homage of your subscribers. However, if you want to make subscriptions private, you need to subscribe to that channel first. Once you have done this, you can go back to your profile and manage your subscriptions.<\/p>\n<p>While it is not necessary to make your subscriptions private, it is worth mentioning that more people than ever subscribe to online services. YouTube is a fantastic source of current events and business news, and it&#8217;s free to use. Make sure you take the time to learn the features of the subscription menu and how to manage your followers. After all, you don&#8217;t want to miss any important updates. As long as you keep your subscription menu up to date, subscribers will be able to find the content they want and you won&#8217;t have to search for it.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hide_subscriber_count\"><\/span>Hide subscriber count<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you are interested in hiding your YouTube subscriber count, you may be wondering how you can do it. The good news is that this is possible. If you are looking to hide your YouTube subscribers, you can easily do so from YouTube Studio. Follow these steps to get your YouTube subscribers hidden. Read on to learn more! Hopefully these tips will help you hide your subscriber count from your viewers and get more views and subscribers.<\/p>\n<p>One reason to hide your YouTube subscriber count is that you&#8217;re a new YouTube channel. The number of subscribers is probably low, and you might be tempted to hide it to avoid a negative reaction from viewers. However, you should consider that hiding your YouTube subscriber count can be a helpful strategy if your channel is only a few months old. Eventually, your YouTube channel will grow and you can unhide your subscriber count if you reach a certain number of subscribers.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Avoid_artificially_inflating_subscriber_count\"><\/span>Avoid artificially inflating subscriber count<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Increasing your YouTube subscriber count by artificially inflating it is against the TOS and may ruin your channel. YouTube may ban your videos or channels if they are caught gaming the system, and this may result in you losing your viewers. So, it&#8217;s best to stick to organic growth and avoid artificially inflating your subscriber count. But how do you do it? The answer is surprisingly simple: you don&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>Using bots and fake accounts to artificially inflate your YouTube subscriber count can backfire. YouTube has removed millions of fake or bot accounts and videos that were inflating channel subscribers. This means you could lose millions of subscribers. Also, you can be banned from YouTube entirely for the next few months. So, what should you do to fix this problem? Well, here are some tips to help you avoid artificially inflating your YouTube subscriber count.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe allowfullscreen=\"true\" height=\"263\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/VQqc27zapz0\" width=\"470\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Hide Your Subscribers on YouTube If you&#8217;ve ever wondered how to hide your YouTube subscribers, then you&#8217;ve come to the right place.
