I do not want to come across as being pleased with a TOTAL ZERO, but for the sake of 'training', it is a plus.
HOW???
I usually do not get zeros anymore, so I was a little disappointed, but I certainly have had many, many zeroes as a beginner.
The first thing is to not panic and, of course, not quit. Not everything that we do works, especially, in business.
Here are some of the reasons why yesterday's video got ZERO Views:
Technical/platform issues:
- Sometimes there's a processing delay before views register.
- TikTok's algorithm can sometimes fail to push a video to any audience initially, especially if it flags something about the content for review
- Political content can sometimes get limited reach due to TikTok's content moderation systems
The video was posted yesterday afternoon, the number of views are presently ZERO
Possible factors affecting reach:
- The title mentions Trump and the Senate, which might trigger content filters that limit distribution
- TikTok's algorithm heavily favors the first few hours - if there's no initial engagement, it often won't push the video further
- If this is a newer account or you haven't posted consistently, the algorithm might not have built up an audience for your content yet
What to do:
- Check if the video is actually visible on your profile and not stuck in processing
- Post at different times when your potential audience is most active
- Use relevant hashtags (though not too many)
- Engage with similar content to build algorithmic momentum
- Consider if the title/thumbnail might be getting filtered
An Even Bigger Problem!
YOU!
I share these initial results, (my 1M view online journey) in this post and previous posts, because these kinds of disappointments are going to happen! It is not a big deal, unlless you make it a big deal, so don't.
I happen to KNOW that my journey will succeed, a huge advantage of experience and many previous successes.
BUT:
You do not know that, in fact, you are probably struggling to 'believe' that any kind of success is going to happen.
If you quit, your success is no longer a possibility, if you persist, it is just about guranteed!
Although I cannot legally make any kind of promises, "your persitence' is going to get you there.
So stick with it and stick with me, and we will make this happen!
Thank you for reading.
Much success,
George Pierce
