For the past 6 months, I've been consistently posting on TikTok and have grown my account to around 3,000 followers. Most of my videos usually get anywhere between 1,000 and 70,000 views, and according to my analytics, about 96% of my traffic normally comes from the For You Page.

​

However, something changed this week.

My recent videos are barely getting any views (between 5 and 50), and when I check the analytics, less than 1% of the traffic is coming from the For You Page. It looks like my videos aren't being pushed to new viewers at all.

​

Another strange thing is that I can no longer share my recent videos to my TikTok Story.

​

I've tried everything I could think of, but nothing seems to help. At this point, I'm honestly out of ideas.

​

The only thing that changed around the same time was that I received a TikTok Amplify notification saying my account had been selected and that my videos could be used in TikTok ads. Ever since that popup appeared, my reach seems to have collapsed.

​

Do you think this could be related, or is it just a coincidence?

​

I've seen a lot of people mentioning similar issues recently, so I'm hoping someone here has found a solution or at least has some insight into what's going on.

​

i've been posting on tiktok for a while trying to promote my health drink brand and honestly the content itself wasn't the problem. it was the editing. once i started paying more attention to pacing, cuts, and hooks in the first two seconds, my views went up noticeably. small things like keeping clips short and adding text overlays at the right moment really do matter more than people think.

i did a course a few months back and it broke down the editing side in a way that actually made sense for someone who isn't a full time creator. nothing fancy, just practical stuff you can use right away. i use capcut for most of my edits now and the difference is real.

has anyone else found that editing style matters more than posting frequency? and what's one edit change that actually moved the needle for you?

I’ve been posting on my business account on TikTok for about three months now and I’ve grown to 100 followers.

i’ve been using a different software editor for the last two posts where I’ve been editing and Colour grading with that software editor AirDrop it to my phone up uploading the video adding music that I have turned the volume down for an added captions within TikTok but recently they have not been getting over two views and normally what happens is the post goes up and within the first hour it normally gets about 100 to 300 views this hasn’t been happening recently.

I remember I got an audio volume warning to say that the original post didn’t have sufficient music volume in the background so they converted to original sound and removed the music that I put in the background. now, however, I cannot seem to get past those two views. i’ve messaged TikTok and they’re being really slow about it. I live chat them and they said to open up an appeal, but the thing is, I cannot appeal for something that does not come up. they sent that it hasn’t been recommended which I’m not sure what that means, but it just means that it’s on no one’s for you page but I’m not sure about the ends and out of it. then they said to open up an appeal which I simply can’t do because there’s no notification saying that it’s been restricted. I’ve checked my account status and everything is fine.

The post went up yesterday the one that got restricted and I’ve posted again today to no avail. It’s again being restricted and it hasn’t gone to any person. I’ve then had a private both of those videos because I saw somewhere that told me to private it.

Please can someone help me figure out what’s going on and what the next step should be.

Yo everyone, I’m honestly frustrated and confused at this point. My TikTok account usually gets normal reach and normal distribution. Recently, my videos started getting completely frozen at single-digit views (literally hitting 5, 6, and 7 views).

​I have absolutely zero community guideline violations, zero strikes, and everything looks completely "normal" in my account status.

​Here is exactly what I’ve done so far:

​The 24-Hour Wait: I completely stopped posting and waited more than 24 hours until 6 PM the next day to try again. The very next video I dropped still instantly froze at 6 views.

​The Hard Reset: I completely deleted the TikTok app from my phone and reinstalled it. After doing this, the view block is still there.

​Is anyone else experiencing this right now? Is it a backend server bug or a device signature ban, and how do I actually break my account out of this loop? Any clarity would be heavily appreciated because posting feels pointless right now.

Has anyone found a solution to this? I want to create and post tiktok videos but I don't want to watch them.

I tried using tiktok studio only but the problem with tiktok studio is that it has no auto-captioning.

So is there any way I can just create and not watch.

See I get distracted extremely quickly so I need to find a way to deal with this.

Is there a way where I can click on the create button every time I open the app but I don't actually see the videos on the screen?

Recently, I was just on TikTok and I accidentally clicked ‘Go live’ and it started saying that I had to scan my face to prove my age, I did, and then it stated that it couldn’t verify my age. I go on TikTok a few hours later and now it’s completely blocked me from some features such as messaging my friends (who I have streaks that are over 500 days with) and I’ve tried other methods of verifying my age but it’s telling me that I need to show my drivers license which I really don’t want to do as sometimes I argue with people on that account, what do I do? I’ve tried everything and it seems like they’ve just blocked me off from any social interaction for no reason. This is super annoying and inconvenient. Please help!

Hey everyone,

I've been trying to promote my SaaS for months. My target audience is in the United States, but I've already tried VPNs, SIM cards, and pretty much every trick you can imagine, and I keep running into shadowban issues.

I'm honestly exhausted from dealing with this. I even turned to Upwork, but some people are asking for $5,000 just for a consultation.

I'm looking for advice from anyone who has experience reaching and distributing content to a U.S. audience while living outside the United States, without getting shadowbanned.

Any guidance or personal experience would be greatly appreciated.

I went on vacation to another country and my videos started getting no views. Now I’m back and it’s still not getting pushed out. I was getting views before, what happened? 😭 How can I fix this?

Has anyone found a solution to this? I’ve been experiencing less than 30 views and even 0 views on average for 3 weeks now. Complained to Tiktok and got told I dont know my audience. My videos would get 1000 to 2000 views on average until 15 May
