How do you avoid copyright violations "in the first place" on youtube?

Any tips? I uploaded a “cover song” with me playing guitar and singing, same as 1000’s of others. I gave credit to the original artist, noted it as a cover, blah blah blah. I know all about “disputing” the copyright violations, but it doesn’t last. I finally closed my account before they “kick” me off. If I open a new account, how can avoid these stupid copyright violations in the first place, it’s very annoying and causes alot of extra work for nothing, only to get “blocked” again. It’s ridiculous, and youtube has no tech-support. You’re at the mercy of the “evil machine” Thank you.

Well you can mark your video as nonprofit or something like that. I can’t remember what it exactly said, but under the category section there should be something like that.
