TikTok - from rising star to irrelavent creator, all in 1 week
https://ift.tt/eA8V8J
I realise you probably hear this a lot, but I feel like my own may be an extreme case.
I started my tiktok journey 1 week ago today, on the 21st of May, and since starting I have gained 27,000 followers, and a total of around 360,000 likes. I've been posting between 2 and 3 times a day consistently, and have been pulling in between 7,000 to 30,000 views per post, with one exception of 2 Million. Out of nowhere however, my views have tanked to the point where I'm actually pulling in more followers per day than views, and can barely hit 1,000 views per video yet can still bring in about 2k followers daily as a result of my old posts still circulating on the fyp.
Whats happened? My content is still produced to the same quality, if not to a higher one than my initial few videos that put me on the map, and I'd even found myself with a surprising loyal and supportive core of followers (I'd see the same names appear in my comments quickly after posting and my initial likes would often come from the same people each video). I'd do my best to reply to every comment so people knew I appreciated their support and they'd often thank me in return for "noticing" them as if I was some big creator that saw themselves above their fan lol. Out of nowhere this core has depleted massively, and these people that once religiously commented and liked my posts are no longer seeing my content.
Is this just a bump in the road - as if tiktok is testing my loyalty to the app by temporarily slowing my exposure to see if ill stick to posting consistently regardless of a lack of views, or is this a permanent shadowban type termination to my growth as a creator?
