After downloading the TikTok app and hoping to begin your journey of making the videos you’ve long desired, you discover your content has 0 views.
This can be frustrating, we know! And that’s what this article is here to help you fix.
Why does my TikTok have 0 views?
Copycats
Note that TikTok doesn’t appreciate copycats in content creation. If you’re uploading a video that was created by someone else and has gone viral, the platform will not acknowledge your video upload, and it will appear to have no views.
New Account
Your TikTok account is fresh and is yet to see you watch different videos and hit the like button. The platform loves engagement, and you have to be involved to be seen, too. You should also add more details to your bio on the TikTok app.
Stringent Algorithms
TikTok has faced many battles in the past, notably in India and China on the types of content it allows to fly. Through the years, the company has learned to set stringent algorithms that prevent bad content from getting any views. Check your content out for quality, it may be why you have zero views. Also, avoid videos showing obscene images.
Multiple Accounts
You may have no views because you’re using more than one account on your mobile device. TikTok has more than 3 billion signups but wants to be sure it’s dealing with humans. When it’s not sure, you’ll face this problem.
Absence of a niche to fly your account with
Whatever you love on TikTok has to be clearly defined. Picking a niche is as good as the content and the engagement you get. There are loads of them to select from, i.e., from sports to music, animals, tech, comedy, food, beauty and style, gaming, and DIY. When TikTok is confused about what you want to achieve, you may never have the view you seek. Stick to a niche for an account.
Sometimes, it keeps you under review
TikTok could be checking the pros and cons of your content to determine whether approval will hurt its brand. Many videos contravene the company’s rules and regulations, including some political or religiously biased content. When your post is under review, you will have zero views until it’s approved for the public.
Absence of Storytelling
To get views on TikTok, you need to tell good stories. Your lack of engagement and views may be a result of your inability to tell stories that will keep viewers watching, liking, and sharing.
Use of VPNs
Appearing to be where you’re not is difficult on TikTok. Watch the use of Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) as TikTok may flag your posts off and will reduce your impressions. Changing VPNs may take you from thousands of views to nill. If you need a presence in another country, you should try to remove your SIM card or try to open an account on a new phone.
Inadequate completion rate
When you have good completion rates, TikTok automatically puts your videos up on others’ timelines. It’s possible to have your content completed twice, and that’ll give you a 200% completion rate.
How To Fix TikTok 0 Views Problems?
- Watch videos and engage on your new account before posting your content.
- Be sure of the kind of content you’re posting. TikTok frowns at profanity or content that promotes vulgarity.
- If you want to have two TikTok accounts, you’ll need two phones. Stick to one account and one phone so the platform doesn’t cut your views or fail to put you in the sight of other users.
- Don’t be a copycat on TikTok. Post original, made-by-you content. This will help you rack up better views and increase your engagement and reach.
- A Challenge may be the challenge. Be wary of games and challenges that negate TikTok’s rules and regulations. An example of such is the Skullbreaker challenge, which trended on the platform a while ago.
- Nudity is frowned upon on TikTok, and coming from its years of battles with some governments, you’ll understand where that’s coming from.
- Avoid posting content showing violence or graphical images that are not acceptable to all.
- If the issue persists, delete the TikTok app and create a new account. You’ve probably done what the platform disapproves of and need to start on a fresh note.
A Few Final Words
When your TikTok account doesn’t show any views after you upload content, you can always look at the solutions above. Hopefully, you can create some magic that inspires your audience to engage and give you all the views you dream of.
