TikTok cuts off views on videos with good performance?

Hey there! I have a problem! First, let me outline my situation.

- My tiktoks usually have between 200K-500K views and a few over a million.
- Likes to views are usually 10-15 percent of views. Sometimes it happens 5%, but that's on a weaker video.
- I have a community that immediately after the video is published, writes comments, shares and leaves likes.
-I have a lot of videos added, so I constantly have a lot of notifications.

And here comes the specific problem:

Every now and then I add a new video and suddenly all notifications go silent. No other video generates any likes, comments, or follows. Traffic on my account = 0.

After a few minutes, the first views of the new video appear, it has a great ratio of likes and comments to views. Likes at 50% to views aaaand boom. Silence.

The mentioned video reaches 5-10K views, zero other notifications. Silence.
Of course, right after the views slow down, I get a notification from tiktok to buy a boost.

This lasts until I add more new videos. Sometimes one is enough, sometimes two. Unfortunately, a video that had great stats at the beginning never gets more views.

Why does this happen? WHat can I do?

I don’t have nearly as many followers or views as you but I’ve been trying tik tok for a bit just as a hobby really and I’ve experienced a similar thing, albeit at a smaller scale

I quite literally came to this sub because within the past 24 hours there’s been a MASSIVE shift in my fyp. Like weird ass videos that I would never watch or interact with. I haven’t seen any of the creators and bits I do usually see and that as far as I know, were pretty consistently in my algorithm, it’s actually made the fyp unscrollable.

I’m not sure if that specifically is just a weird algorithm hole thing, however, I posted a video last night like right before midnight and it was actually gaining real quick traction. Much much faster than most of my posts and I was getting pretty hyped up to see the engagement. Then just nothing. Like shadowbanned for nothing. As soon as this happened is also when I noticed my fyp was whacked out.

These things, again, may not be related and idk if this is just something messed up with my algorithm, but from what you’ve written I definitely agree that as of recently Tik Tok has been doing some extremely weird bs with regards to its user experience.

I would say if your current method is to just post through the storm that seems reasonable enough even though it’s a little annoying. If you don’t already you could try posting a tik tok shop item related video once in a while? Idk I’m kinda grasping at straws here and you’d probably know better than me anyways

Best of luck with your Tik Tok journey fam.
